Zelda's Sword is a unique one-handed sword, initially found detached from its scabbard.

Characteristics[]

While it is equal in strength to a Glass Sword, Zelda's Sword swings nearly as fast as a dagger. Without its scabbard, it weighs far less than a normal sword, being the same weight as a Dwarven Dagger. When combined with its scabbard, it weighs the same as a Dragonbone Dagger.

The Sword may be tempered with a Quicksilver Ingot.

Effects[]

Zelda's Sword has no inherit enchantments and thus may be enchanted. It counts as a Silver weapon, dealing extra damage to undead, ghosts, and werewolves.

To re-combine the scabbard with the Sword, Zelda's Round must be played using the Ocarina of Time. The song may be played again to remove the scabbard and make it a separate weapon again.

Location[]

Zelda's Sword is located within Guilt in the Ruptured Towers. It rests atop Zelda's Coffin, and is found just before the entrance to Shame.

Lore[]

Zelda's Sword was used by Zelda during the Last Great War of Hyrule, intended as her last line of defense. If she could not be protected and could not defeat a foe with magic, she would resort to using the sword. The scabbard was designed to be wielded as its own weapon to give Zelda more options in battle, as well as to allow her to give a weapon to an ally. In Wisdom, Power, and Emotion, Zelda uses the sword in her final battle with Ganon.

Together with Zelda's Bow, Zelda's Sword is one of the two weapons that represent Zelda within the Sage Weapons set.

Background and Inspiration[]

The model for Zelda's Sword was made by fcp078, who also designed Zelda's Scabbard to JKalenad's request (as no canon exists for its appearance). Zelda's Scabbard was intended to make Zelda's Sword more unique, and to show Zelda's depth of preparedness and self-defense.

Zelda's Sword is based on the weapon wielded by Zelda in Twilight Princess, and was often requested by users of the mod. Its appearance was first adjusted in versions 6.0 and 6.5.0. In version 6.6.2, its colors were further adjusted and given a more desaturated appearance.
