According to some academics, the name itself translates to “hard cleft” or “hard blow,” emphasizing the fabled might of the blade. We investigate the various stories that depict Caladbolg’s creation and function as we enter the world of myth.
Heroes and the Sword: Wielders of Destiny
Caladbolg is held by famous heroes who alter the course of history throughout the sagas of the Arthurian legends. The fabled King Arthur, whose name alone conjures up ideas of bravery and chivalry, is one such figure. According to certain legends, Arthur uses Caladbolg to kill enemies with unmatched force, enhancing his status as a legendary character.
However, Arthur is not the only fighter who uses Caladbolg. Other well-known people who have used the sword include Lancelot and Cai. With tales of battles, conquests, and the never-ending conflict between good and evil, each hero’s contact with the sword ushers in a new chapter in the journey of the blade.

The sword’s ongoing significance is highlighted by the fact that it can be found in everything from books to movies, video games, and art.

To understand how to use his strength, Fergus mac Róich used Caladbolg: The Rainbow Sword in his child form.

The original Caladbolg was modified using Reinforcement to create the Fake Spiral Sword. Its appearance differs from the original, sporting a thinner drill blade and a hilt and handguard that resemble Excalibur’s instead of the thick blade and green handle of Fergus’s version. At some point in his life, Archer came into contact with the original sword, adding it to the many Noble Phantasms kept in Unlimited Blade Works and enabling him to modify it to enhance its performance as an arrow and match his fighting style. With the enhancements intended to utilize it as an A-rank Broken Phantasm, he envisions using it as an arrow rather than a sword. He still only chants “Caladbolg” to activate it, even though it has been renamed with the “II” version of the Unlimited Blade Works incantation. The blade continues to twist during this process, lengthening and narrowing into a shape better suited for shooting. He thrusts it to puncture his opponent when using it as a close-combat weapon.
When the sword is discharged, the blade coils into a spiral that can pierce any target by twisting the surrounding area. It is strong enough to quickly defeat Caster’s magical defenses when shot at her simply because it was pointed intentionally at a distant location. Even if she had tried to teleport away from the onslaught, in Shirou’s opinion, she would have merely been twisted along with the space. It produces a massive explosion that can destroy and incinerate a cemetery after being stopped by Berserker.
Chloe von Einzbern uses a degraded version of Caladbolg II called Caladbolg III: The Fake-Fake Spiral Sword. It becomes more powerful and can pierce anything by twisting space after releasing its True Name.

My Dear Boyfriend’s Rainbow Sword is a Noble Phantasm of Medb dressed as a bikini. Using as a weapon the magical sword Caladbolg (the noble phantasm of the hero Fergus, a lover of hers in a former life). She is capable of performing the discharge of True Name as if it were routine, yet it appears that she is exercising restraint in this situation. Even Queen Medb wouldn’t set off an earthquake in a fantastic vacation location—in fact, she wouldn’t because she is Queen Medb.
Nobody is certain if, similar to when she is a Rider, she materialized this as a result of the characteristics of her tales and legends about “taking possession of heroes” or whether she merely borrowed it from the Fergus at Chaldea. As anticipated, its potency has diminished compared to when Fergus utilizes it himself, but in exchange, its flexibility and adaptability have increased. Simply shaking it cutesy with a “hey” will quickly deploy a rainbow veil. The enemy soldiers who become Medb’s targets will likely be captured in a rainbow veil and made helpless in that ecstatic light, with no knowledge of what transpired.
Although it employs the design of Caladbolg II because it was created before the original Caladbolg made an appearance in Fate/Grand Order, Gilgamesh is depicted utilizing Caladbolg from the Gate of Babylon on Lancer in the Fate route of the Fate/Stay Night anime.
