The noble trident, weapon of the sea-king and any brave enough to plough his foaming fields.

The Trident (トライデント, Toraidento?) is a common recurring weapon in the Final Fantasy series. It is usually a mid-ranked spear that is either Ice, Water, or Lightning-elemental.

Etymology[]

A trident is a three-pronged spear used for spear-fishing, and was also a military weapon. Tridents are featured widely in mythical, historical and modern culture. The major Hindu god, Shiva the Destroyer, and the Greco-Roman sea god Poseidon or Neptune, are classically depicted bearing a trident.

The word "trident" comes from the French trident, which in turn comes from the Latin tridens or tridentis: tri "three" and dentes "teeth".
