Gandr

Gandr (ガンド, Gando?) is a simple curse originating from Scandinavia.[1]

Mechanics

Gandr.

Gandr.

Gandr is a curse which concentrates magical energy into a magus's forefinger, resulting in a hazy black orb to be subsequently fired like a bullet in a target, decreasing their physical health when hit. Because the curse properly said is released from the caster's index finger and the target must be within the field of vision to be aimed at, it is dubbed Gandr Shot (ガンド撃ち, Gandouchi?).[1] A Gandr with so much magical energy concentrated into it that it becomes capable of physical interference is called Finn Shot (フィンの一撃, Fin no Ichigeki?).[1]

Gandr was the origin of the perception that pointing at people was impolite or a form of cursing,[1] and though not using any Rune letter, it is of Rune Magecraft.[2]

Rin Tohsaka's Finn Shot has roughly the destructive power of a pistol bullet and while a single hit is not enough to kill someone, it is still capable of knocking out a normal person. The Edelfelt are among the best Gandr-users in the world.

The Aoko Puppet is equipped with Mystic Eyes capable of rapidly firing Gandr/Finn Shots that could ricochet off mirrors. At full strength, the Finn Shots could stop a defenseless person's heart in one hit.[3] Erice Utsumi uses an upgraded type of Gandr called Freischütz.[4]

    The caster delivered the curse by pointing an index finger at the target and damaging his constitution.
    Since Gandr targeted victims in the caster's field of vision, it was also called Gandr Shot.
