The Mystletainn (ミストルティン Misutorutin, alternately translated as Mistolteen in Fire Emblem Treasure, and translated Mistoltin, Mistilteinn, or Mistletain in some of the fan translations) is one of the holy weapons in Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War and was the weapon of Hezul. Only units with major Hezul blood may use it. It is occasionally known as the Demon Sword, however it is not known why. It grants its wielder +20 Skill and +10 Resistance, and also grants its wielder the skill Critical.

In the game, the only units that can use it are Eldigan and Ares, with Eldigan using it as an allied unit during Chapter 1 and an enemy unit in Chapter 3, while Ares will use it for one turn as an enemy unit during Chapter 7, but after that enemy turn ends, Ares will become a playable unit until the end of the game.

In Fire Emblem: Awakening, Owain claims to be searching for the similar sword "Missiletainn", unaware that it is not the same sword.

EtymologyEdit

Mystletainn is named after the sword Höðr used to kill Baldr with. In the 13th century Prose Edda, due to the scheming of Loki, the god Baldr is killed by his brother, the blind god Höðr, by way of a mistletoe projectile, despite the attempts of Baldr's mother, the goddess Frigg, to have all living things and inanimate objects swear an oath not to hurt Baldr after he had troubling dreams of his death. Frigg was unable to get an oath from mistletoe, because "it seemed too young" to demand an oath from. In the Gesta Danorum version of the story, Baldr and Höðr are rival suitors, and Höðr kills Baldr with a sword named Mistilteinn (Old Norse "mistletoe"). In addition, a sword by the same name appears in various other Norse legends.
