Gurgurant (グルグラント Guruguranto) is a unique Sword that appears exclusively in Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance. Solely bound to the Mad King Ashnard, Gurgurant is a weapon that is dauntingly formidable, as it confers a plethora of substantial boosts to its already-intimidating wielder's Strength and Accuracy through its high Might and Hit Rate. The sword is unobtainable outside of the Trial Map mode.

Etymology
In Arthurian Mythology, Gurgurant was a cannibal king and father of a son that had been murdered by a giant - A very apt allusion to not just the tyrannical, bloodthirsty and deranged figure that Ashnard cuts in Path of Radiance, but also his lack of knowledge of the existence of his son, rendering said son akin to being dead and non-existent to him.
