Tharja's Hex



Tharja's Hex (サーリャの禁呪, ) is a special weapon of the Tome variety. It is the signature weapon of the dark-minded Plegian Dark Mage with a serious stalker habit Tharja.

Tharja's Hex is unlocked after S-rank Clearing a battle in Emmeryn, a History Mode map from the Fire Emblem Awakening DLC pack.

=History= Tharja's Hex is a wholly original tome that debuts within this game. It is a leather-bound book that has iron clasps on the sides that isn't the book's spine that can keep the book shut, presumably to prevent either prying hands to get into the tome, to keep the curses locked until Tharja has need for them, or a worrying combination of the two theories.

=Gameplay= As a Rank E weapon, Tharja's Hex can be wielded by Tharja as soon as the player unlocks the tome, and has a nice attack power of 160.

As a weapon with six available slots, Tharja's Hex allows an amount of flexibility with what weapon attributes to forge into the tome. However, as a tome unit, Topsy-Turvy is a very undesirable weapon attribute, due to said trait switching Tharja's attacking stat from her great Magic stat to her terrible Strength stat.

As it is a personal weapon, it can be upgraded by creating both Tharja's Mastery Crest and Sanctuary Crest, drastically increasing the weapon's Might, first to 240, then to 720.


 * To obtain Tharja's Hex's Scroll, which is needed for Tharja's Mastery Crest, the player must first clear the titular boss battle in Emmeryn, as it is offered as a S-Rank clear prize for one of the Distortion Battles on said map. After creating Tharja's Mastery Crest, the True Power weapon attribute will be unlocked after 10,000 kills, negating any Might penalty reduction from the player putting a foreign slayer-type weapon attribute via reforging.
 * To obtain Tharja's Hex's Opus, which is needed for Tharja's Sanctuary Crest, the player clear one of the Distortion Battles in Emmeryn. After creating Tharja's Sanctuary Crest, the Divine Favor weapon attribute will overwrite the True Power attribute, even if True Power is not yet unlocked for Tharja's Hex.
