Rexcalibur (Japanese: レクスカリバー Rexcalibur) is a powerful wind tome which made its first legitimate appearance in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, although it is also present in an unused state in the preceding game, Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance. In Radiant Dawn, it is a regalia weapon and the wind counterpart to the Rexflame and Rexbolt tomes, and is obtained by Ike's party during Part 4. In Awakening, it is downgraded to become an ordinary spell that acts instead as a wind counterpart to Thoron and Bolganone, a role previously filled by Tornado; this continues in Heroes.
In the Tellius games, Rexcalibur is depicted as a blizzard which summons an immense burst of ice around the spell's target. Awakening instead portrays it as a relatively ordinary tornado.

Fimbulvetr |
From the Fimbulvetr (Old Norse: "great winter"), the three unyielding winters preceding Ragnarökr in Norse mythology.
