The Legendary Ore Escudo is a mineral found in Cephiro. It is the only ore that can be made into an evolving weapon.

Background[]

Weapons created from Escudo evolve according to the strength and mental power of their owner. Of course, if the Weapon's user doesn't evolve, neither does the Weapon.

Weapons made of Escudo were a requirement for Hikaru, Umi, and Fuu to become Magic Knights as the evolving weapons were the key to awakening the Rune Gods. Escudo can only be found in the Legendary Spring of Eterna. According to Presea, numerous Warriors have journeyed to Eterna in hopes of finding Escudo, but none have ever returned.

The Escudo weapons can only be used by the warrior who wields them. Umi once had her Escudo sword knocked off her hands and Hikaru tried to grab it, so she could give it back to her friend, but the sword "devolved" into a watery form and then fell on the ground. When Fuu tossed her Escudo to Umi, it turned extremely heavy, weighing her and her abductor down. And when Lafarga tried to wrest Hikaru's Escudo from her while they were fighting, it set him ablaze, with the side effect of removing his brainwashing.

Etymology[]

Escudo is named after the Suzuki Escudo.

Trivia[]

  • Presea also mentions Minerals such as Arl, Slye, and Kusto, which are apparently strong but not good enough for Magic Knights.
