Master's Defender

Eraqus's Keyblade (エラクゥスのキーブレード Erakwusu no Kīburēdo?) is a Keyblade used by Master Eraqus and Aqua in Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep.

Like his erstwhile friend Master Xehanort, Master Eraqus rarely draws his Keyblade. When he does fight he is able to use the Keyblade to channel his own light magic. However, even after Master Eraqus is slain by Xehanort's hand, and the Land of Departure is devoured by darkness, his Keyblade remains. After destroying Vanitas, Aqua takes a comatose Ventus back to the Land of Departure, where they find Eraqus's Keyblade. Following Eraqus's prior instructions, Aqua uses the Keyblade to transform the world into Castle Oblivion, a labyrinth which can only be fully navigated by herself, and hides Ventus's body within. Although Aqua keeps this Keyblade, she does not actually wield it until after battling "Terra-Xehanort" with her own Keyblade and sacrificing it to save the remnants of Terra within him.

Design

Master Eraqus's Keyblade has a smooth, cylindrical, grey shaft that tapers outward at both ends. It has a boxy guard, made up of two small, light grey boxes and copper rods. The base of the guard connects to the handle, and both sport several small indentations lining them. The teeth are in the shape of an "E". His Keychain is made of several simple chain links and its token is the "Mark of Mastery" symbol that appears on his, Ventus's, Terra's, and Aqua's clothing.
