Swordy

Swordy (スウォーディン) is a sword knight virus from the Mega Man Battle Network series that wields ethereal swords. They attack by slicing 3 panels in front of them (having the range of a Wide Sword) and/or slicing 2 panels ahead of them (having the range of a Long Sword). In Mega Man Battle Network Swordys could also perform a third type of slicing attack, which had the range of a FighterSword. They are also able to use AreaSteal to increase their fighting range and corner their enemies. Because they can range from non-elemental to Aqua and Fire element types, the Swordy family can drop a variety of Sword Battle Chips when defeated.
