Caliburn (カリバーン Karibān) is a Demon Sword and Arthur A. Angel's familiar. She is held in a sheath on the front of Arthur's belt.

Appearance

Taking the shape of a stylized broadsword, Caliburn is large and heavy with no actual point; rather, the tip of the blade is flat and sharp, taking a shape reminiscent of a guillotine. The golden pommel at the end of the hilt appears to possess a face which speaks without moving.

Personality

Caliburn seems almost single-mindedly obsessed with Arthur to the extent where her hobby is thinking about Arthur and her favorite words are everything Arthur says. Even her favorite pastime is defeating demons alongside the Paladin.

History

Caliburn was once stored in the depths of the Vatican Main Office, stuck in a mysterious pedestal. Arthur, wishing for a reward for his work, made a contract with Caliburn and pulled her from the pedestal and has been using Caliburn for a long time since.

Synopsis

Training Camp arc

Caliburn originally appears alongside Arthur when the Paladin attempted to kill the Spawn of Satan. The execution of Rin is however postponed in favor of taking him as material evidence in the case against Mephisto Pheles.

True Cross Academy Festival arc

Arthur uses Angel Slash on the Impure Princess

In Yemen, Arthur arrives on the scene of a similar incident to the one that had just transpired in Kyoto. Faced with the powerful demon, the Impure Princess, Arthur remarks his disgust at having been left out of the battle with the Impure King. Determined to prove himself, he asks Caliburn to lend him power. Caliburn replies that in order to defeat the Princess, she will need a sacrifice of at least Arthur's hair. Giving it gladly, the pair attack the castle form of the Impure Princess and destroy it with a single blow.

Powers & Abilities

Whilst Caliburn seems to be incapable of moving on her own, she does allow her wielder access to various powers and techniques.

• Angel Slash (エンジェルスラッシュ Enjeru Surasshu): After cutting a lock of his hair with Caliburn, Arthur swings the Demon Sword and creates a destructive wave of energy that can completely destroy something the likes of the Impure Princess in a single hit.
• Angelic Ray: Glowing brightly, Angel launches forward, piercing his target through.
• Angelic Slasher Thunderbolt: Creating a light duplicate of Caliburn to create a bow, Arthur fires multiple arrows of light.

Zodiac Slash

• Zodiac Slash: Utilizing Caliburn, Arthur encases his body in energy that takes the shape of his sword and charges upward. The attack is capable of destroying multiple enemies at once, but the higher he travels, the more momentum Arthur loses, resulting in power loss and potential interruption of the attack.
