"Infernoble Arms", known in Japanese as "Flame Holy Sword" (焔（えん）聖（せい）剣（けん） Enseiken) is a sub-archetype of the "Noble Arms" archetype that debuted in Rise of the Duelist, but only received its first support card in Duelist Nexus. They are Equip Spell Cards that have synergy with FIRE Warrior monsters, and are closely related to the "Infernoble Knight" archetype.

Design

The "Infernoble Arms" Equip Spells are based on weapons wielded by characters from the epic poem, The Song of Roland.

Each "Infernoble Arms" Equip Spell is depicted as a sword in a display case in a museum (as depicted in "Noble Arms Museum") surrounded by silhouetted onlookers. Their names are also in quotations to further signify their status as museum pieces.

The archetype's design may be based on a sword alleged to be Charlemagne's Joyeuse being displayed in the Louvre; the sword has been used in coronation ceremonies since 1270, over 400 years after Charlemagne's death.
