Unlike other Legacy Weapons, Murakumo doesn’t seem to have any cost for using it. However, Murakumo is sentient and chooses its wielders. It is said that nothing can make it move if it finds someone untrustworthy.

Sword, sheathe

Classification

Legacy Weapon

Signati Gladio Crystalis: Murakumo (契晶封刃・ムラクモ Kesshō Fūjin Murakumo[1]), sometimes translated as Crystal Sealing Blade: Murakumo or Kesho Fujin: Murakumo, is a Legacy Weapon that has been wielded by Es and Touya Kagari.

Information

The Signati Gladio Crystalis: Murakumo is an incredibly large katana-like sword that is more than five feet long. It is incredibly sharp and able to cut through a Union's crystal with ease. The Murakumo can be summoned to the wielder's hands from thin air. Where it goes when not in use is unknown.

Unlike other Legacy Weapons, the Murakumo doesn't seem to have any cost for using it. However, the Murakumo is sentient and does choose its wielders. It is said that nothing can make it move if it finds its wielder untrustworthy.

The Signati Gladio Crystalis: Murakumo was first wielded by Es as part of Sleipnir in XBlaze Code: Embryo. In the climax of the Es Route, Touya takes up the Murakumo to battle Sechs and continues to wield it after Es erases herself from the world. When Es returns in XBlaze Lost: Memories she takes up the Murakumo again to battle Freaks. She remains its wielder later, as Touya uses his Drive to make a replica of it from his own blood.

In BlazBlue: Central Fiction Es still wields the Murakumo. However, it now is covered in a large sheathe. This sheathe absorbs and stores seithr within it. When Es uses her Astral Heat, she removes the sheathe, revealing the original sword inside it.
