Notable Attacks/Techniques:
- Gáe Bolg - Spear of Piercing Barbed Death: A surely fatal strike from the cursed lance, Gáe Bolg. This attack always strikes the heart. By unleashing the abilities of the spear, the wielder can reverse the nature of causality. In effect, the cause is that "the heart is pierced" and the effect is that "the spear is thrust". Thus, the lance has already hit the heart before it is thrust, and the actual action is merely a formality that occurs due to the piercing of the enemy's heart.
- Gáe Bolg - Striking Death Flight: This technique utilizes the full potential of Gáe Bolg's curse, converting prana into energy and releasing the accumulated power after the spear is hurled, detonating on impact with enough power to blow away a multitude of enemies. In contrast to the Impaling Barbed Death property, the Striking Death Flight attempts to blow away large groups of enemies, instead of dispatching a single foe with sure lethality.
- Curse: Gáe Bolg is able to negate regeneration as long as it remains in the world. Stated by Nasu to be able to "kill" Arcueid.
Notable OBD Victories:

Notable OBD Losses:
Other: Removing the spear from the wound doesn't remove the curse. Not to be confused with the character of the same name from Fate/Zero
