Main characters
editTouma Kamiyama
editTouma Kamiyama (神山 飛羽真, Kamiyama Tōma) is a novelist who becomes the new Flame Swordsman (炎の剣士, Honō no Kenshi) after receiving a red Wonder Ride Book from Daichi Kamijo. When he was nine, Touma befriended Luna and Kento. When Kento's father, Hayato, defected to the Megids and kidnapped Luna, she and Touma tried to escape. While he was unable to save her, he was apparently saved by Daichi, who told Touma he can decide stories' endings before giving the boy his Brave Dragon Wonder Ride Book. In the aftermath, Touma lost much of his childhood memories, but suffered recurring nightmares about Luna. Despite this, he remembered Kento's suggestion to become a novelist and opened an antique bookstore called the Fantasic Bookstore Kamiyama (ファンタジック本屋かみやま, Fantajikku Hon'ya Kamiyama).[1][2][3][4][5]
In the present, as his home city is attacked by a monster from Wonder World, Touma activates the Wonder Ride Book in his possession and transforms into the new Kamen Rider Saber.[1][2] Amidst his battles against the Megids, Touma discovers a strange connection to the mysterious Kamen Rider Calibur before discovering Daichi had become Calibur and betrayed the Sword of Logos.[6][7][8] After Kento's apparent death and defeating Calibur, Touma eventually recovers his lost memories.[3][9][4] While investigating conspiracies within the Sword of Logos, Touma is falsely branded a traitor by members of the organization's Southern Base and forced to go AWOL with Mei and Yuri.[10] As his allies learn the truth however, Touma slowly reconciles his friendships with them.[11][12][5][13][14] After rescuing Luna from the world of Void, she chooses Touma to wield Wonder World's power and become its guardian, which he accepts despite the risk of fading from existence.[15][16] While fighting Storious, Touma acquires the Wonder Almighty Wonder Ride Book, which allows him to defeat the Megid, undo Storious' damage to Wonder World and Earth, revive himself, and freely visit his friends on Earth without vanishing.[17] Touma later semi-retires from being Saber so he can resume his work as a novelist.[18]
During the events of the film Kamen Rider: Beyond Generations, Touma comes out of retirement at Rintaro and Sophia's behest, reunites with their fellow comrades of the new Sword of Logos, and joins forces with the Igarashi siblings and Fenix commander, Hiromi Kadota, to combat Diablo and the Crispers.
Utilizing the Brave Dragon (ブレイブドラゴン, Bureibu Doragon) Wonder Ride Book in conjunction with the SworDriver and the Kaenken Rekka (火炎剣烈火, Flame Sword Raging Fire) knightly sword, Touma can transform into Kamen Rider Saber. While transformed, he gains pyrokinesis and the use of the God Beast Brave Dragon (神獣ブレイブドラゴン, Shinjū Bureibu Doragon) familiar for combat assistance.

Following this, Kento's Rider equipment falls into Touma's care.[3][9]
Trapped in the Ankokuken Kurayami, Kento discovers Isaac's conspiracy and witnesses visions of various futures wherein the world is either destroyed due to the Almighty Book or saved by Touma following his death. Traumatized, Kento frees himself under mysterious means, steals the Calibur equipment from Reika, becomes the third Calibur, and goes rogue to avert the visions' events by sealing all of the Seiken.[12][56][57][58] While Touma and Yuri eventually save Kento from himself and convince him to help them stop Isaac,[59] Kento remains resolute in his goal to save Touma and the world, temporarily continuing to use the Calibur title to honor his father's legacy.[38] However, Kento learns Hayato survived and has a heart-to-heart with him, after which the former regains confidence in himself, reassumes his original Rider powers, and returns the Ankokuken Kurayami to Yuri.[47][48] After saving Earth and Wonder World from Storious, Kento temporarily takes over Touma's bookstore until the latter returns one year later.[17]

Recurring characters
editKamen Rider Calibur
editKamen Rider Calibur (仮面ライダーカリバー, Kamen Raidā Karibā) is a moniker used by those who inherit the title of the Dark Swordsman (闇の剣士, Yami no Kenshi). It was originally associated with the Sword of Logos until the original bearer of the name was manipulated by Isaac into siding with the Megids, at which point "Calibur" became synonymous with "renegade" until the third and fourth bearer fights alongside the Sword of Logos.
Anyone who becomes Calibur utilizes the Jaaku Dragon (ジャアクドラゴン, Jaaku Doragon, Evil Dragon) Wonder Ride Book in conjunction with the Jaken Calibur Driver (邪剣カリバードライバー, Jaken Karibā Doraibā, Evil Sword Calibur Driver)[d] belt and the Ankokuken Kurayami (暗黒剣月闇, Darkness Sword Moon Dark) broadsword in order to transform. While transformed, they gain umbrakinesis and the use of the God Beast Jaaku Dragon (神獣ジャアクドラゴン, Shinjū Jaaku Doragon) familiar for combat assistance.[64][7]
After Daichi's identity as the second Calibur is exposed, he obtains the Jaou Dragon (ジャオウドラゴン, Jaō Doragon, Evil King Dragon) Wonder Ride Book, which he can use to assume his eponymous ultimate form where he gains the use of the God Beast Jaou Dragon (神獣ジャオウドラゴン, Shinjū Jaō Doragon) familiar for combat assistance.[35] After Kento becomes Calibur, Jaou Dragon gains the ability to seal the Seiken, which can only be undone if the owner is either fatally wounded or defeated.[57][38]
Hayato Fukamiya
editHayato Fukamiya (富加宮 隼人, Fukamiya Hayato) is the father of Kento and the first Dark Swordsman who left the Sword of Logos 15 years prior to the series and allied himself with the Megids after the Ankokuken Kurayami subjected him to nightmares depicting his leader Isaac ending the world and ordering him to sacrifice Luna.[2][6][8] This spurred Hayato to steal numerous Wonder Ride books and release the Megids on Earth as a cover to abduct Luna and uncover the truth of his visions, only to be mortally wounded by Daichi.[4][58][65] Hayato was initially believed to have been killed, but Kento eventually learns his father suffered a near-death experience before he was saved by Tassel and became a spirit guardian of Wonder World (ワンダーワールド, Wandā Wārudo).[46]
In the tie-in prequel manga, Supplementary Volume Kamen Rider Saber: Kamen Rider Buster the Comic, which takes place 20 years prior to the series, Hayato aided his master, Toshikazu Kamikawa, in hastening his friendly rival, Ryo's, awakening as the new Earth Swordsman.[66]
Hayato Fukamiya is portrayed by Mitsuru Karahashi (唐橋 充, Karahashi Mitsuru).[67]
Daichi Kamijo
editDaichi Kamijo (上條 大地, Kamijō Daichi) is the previous Flame Swordsman and the second Dark Swordsman. 15 years prior to the series, he is forced to fight Hayato to protect Touma and Luna from him. Failing to save her, Daichi left his Brave Dragon Wonder Ride Book with Touma before seemingly sacrificing himself in his pursuit of Hayato.[2][3][4] Upon defeating Hayato and taking the Ankokuken Kurayami however, Daichi saw visions of the world's destruction. Discarding the Kaenken Rekka and faking his death, he aligned himself with the Megids as the new Calibur to "learn the truth of the world" and continue his fallen comrade's mission to expose Isaac.[65]
After he resurfaces in the present and several battles with his successor,[31][7][8][3] Daichi reveals his secrets to Touma and almost entrusts his Rider equipment to him before Desast mortally wounds the former while Reika steals his equipment before they eventually come into Kento's possession.[4][56]
Daichi Kamijo is portrayed by Hiroyuki Hirayama (平山 浩行, Hirayama Hiroyuki).
Sophia
editSophia (ソフィア, Sofia) is a simulacrum based on a priestess who connected Wonder World and Earth two millennia prior, the protector of books for the Sword of Logos' Northern Base and the creator of the Wonder Ride Books who watches over Touma Kamiyama and the base's other swordsmen.[1][20][12] After confronting her former apprentice, Daichi Kamijo,[35] Sophia is kidnapped and imprisoned by Reika Shindai under the orders of her leader, Isaac, who created her as a possible replacement in the Greater Book's recreation ritual in the event that Luna could not be recovered.[10][68][11][38][15] Despite this, Yuri and Touma are able to reassemble their fellow swordsmen before Kento Fukamiya rescues Sophia.[37] As the Megid Storious enacts his plan to destroy Wonder World and Earth and due to her connection to the former, Yuri gives Sophia the Ankokuken Kurayami to protect her from fading from existence.[69] She later uses the sword to become the fourth and final Calibur, aka the Dark Swordswoman, to aid the swordsmen in stopping Storious.[69][70] Following the battle,[17] Sophia is elected to become part of the Sword of Logos' new ruling council.[18]
Sophia is portrayed by Rina Chinen (知念 里奈, Chinen Rina).
Tassel
editTassel (タッセル, Tasseru) is the guardian of Wonder World and the series narrator who gradually makes his presence known to Touma and the others, though he is unable to directly intervene in human world affairs.[1][2] He was originally a human named Victor (ビクトール, Bikutōru), who came to Wonder World in the past alongside the first Master Logos, Storious, Legeiel, and Zooous, where they met a priestess who connected their worlds and chose Victor to defend Wonder World. When Storious deceived Legeiel and Zooous into becoming Megids and betrayed their friends, Victor created the Ankokuken Kurayami and Kougouken Saikou and helped Logos divide the Tome of Omniscience, keeping half with him in Wonder World while Logos returned to their world with the other half to ensure stability between the worlds.[16] As part of his plans to destroy the world in the present, Logos' descendant Isaac banishes Tassel,[57] but the latter's consciousness ends up in that of Touma and Primitive Dragon's until the novelist tames the Wonder Ride Book, freeing Tassel in the process.[24] After taking time to regenerate, Tassel entrusts Touma and his allies with protecting Earth and Wonder World before he leaves to protect Luna,[47][16] only to be killed by Storious, who steals his half of the Tome of Omniscience.[71] Following this, his soul continues to reside in Wonder World along with those of Luna and the Megids.[17]
Tassel is portrayed by Tobi from Les Romanesques.
Luna
editLuna (ルナ, Runa) is Touma and Kento's childhood friend who, like the former, hails from Wonder World and serves as a link between it and Earth. After Isaac manipulated Hayato into targeting her, she attempted to run away with Touma, only to be pulled into and trapped in the world of Void. In the present, Touma eventually makes contact with her through their childhood book, Wonder Story, and brings her to the human world.[72][2][3][4][58][59] She returns to Wonder World to stay with Tassel until Storious kills him, leading to Luna seeking refuge with the Sword of Logos.[47][71] When Storious attempts to destroy Wonder World and Earth, Luna sacrifices herself to give Touma the Wonder Almighty Wonder Ride Book so he, Rintaro, and Kento can defeat Storious. Following this, her soul resides in Wonder World along with that of Tassel's.[17]
Luna is portrayed by Miku Okamoto (岡本 望来, Okamoto Miku) as a child, and by Mayuu Yokota (横田 真悠, Yokota Mayū) as an adult.[73]
Sword of Logos
editThe Sword of Logos (ソードオブロゴス, Sōdo Obu Rogosu) is a mysterious organization formed by a secret sect of swordsmen sworn to protect the ancient Greater Book (大いなる本, Ōinaru Hon) and keep peace in the world. They are led by an individual who holds the title of "Master Logos" (マスターロゴス, Masutā Rogosu), a member of a bloodline dating back to the first Master Logos. The highest authority who approve the organization's policies are the Four Sages (四賢神, Yon Kenjin)[5] Following their final battle with Storious, the Sword of Logos chose to abolish the Master Logos and Sage positions in favor of a council of four.[18]
The Kamen Riders of this organization each wield one of 11 unique Seiken (聖剣, Holy Sword) transformation swords composed of a singular element, which they can use to invoke their combat weapons and transform in conjunction with Wonder Ride Books (ワンダーライドブック, Wandā Raido Bukku), with some using either one of three scabbard-like Seiken SworDriver (聖剣ソードライバー, Seiken Sōdoraibā, Holy Sword SworDriver) belts or a Driver unique to their Seiken.[1][2][20][29][6][32][74] Those who utilize the SworDrivers can use one to three books at once while those who only utilize a Seiken or separate Driver are limited to one at a time.[20][29][31] While all of the Riders are able to assume varying forms based on the Wonder Ride Books in their possession, books with the same elemental affinity as their sword grant more power compared to those that do not,[29][31][6][32] with the SworDriver users able to achieve Wonder Combo (ワンダーコンボ, Wandā Konbo) forms.[7][22][8]
The gathered Seiken can be used to create the Almighty Book (全知全能の書, Zenchizen'nō no Sho), a relic created from one half of the Tome of Omniscience that can either place Wonder World and Earth on the brink of destruction or create new Rider powers.[74][57]
Northern Base
editThe Northern Base (ノーザンベース, Nōzan Bēsu) is a branch of the Sword of Logos based in the North Pole and serves as most of the swordsmen's base of operations. Following Touma becoming Kamen Rider Saber, some of the organization's members choose to use his bookstore as a passageway from the Northern Base and back.
Ryo Ogami
editRyo Ogami (尾上 亮, Ogami Ryō) is an aggressive great swordsman of the Sword of Logos' Northern Base known as the Earth Swordsman (土の剣士, Tsuchi no Kenshi) and the oldest member of the group. He investigates Hayato's betrayal and defection from the Sword of Logos while caring for his son, Sora (そら),[29] until he discovers Hayato was seemingly killed by Daichi and both were manipulated by Isaac.[8][13] After saving both Wonder World and Earth, Ryo plans to retire from the Sword of Logos so he can pursue a teaching career and raise and teach new generations of swordsmen.[18]
Eight years later, Ryo becomes a teacher at Kagari Elementary School (かがり小学校, Kagari Shōgakkō).[60]
In the tie-in prequel manga, Supplementary Volume Kamen Rider Saber: Kamen Rider Buster the Comic, Ryo met and befriended Haruka Kiritani during their childhood and attended Kagari High School (かがり高校, Kagari Kōkō) together, where the former became a teenage delinquent for three years. 20 years prior to the series, after Ryo found the Genbu Shinwa Wonder Ride Book, he and Haruka were attacked by Shimii and rescued by their Japanese classics teacher, Toshikazu Kamikawa, who chose Ryo to become his apprentice and eventually succeed him as the second Earth Swordsman. Ryo agreed to become the strongest swordsman and protect Haruka's smile.[75][76][66] Sometime after Ryo surpassed Kamikawa, he married Haruka, who gave birth to Sora six years after Hayato's betrayal.[77]

Isaac
editIsaac (イザク, Izaku) is the nihilistic and psychopathic leader of the Sword of Logos and the last known bearer of the Master Logos title who seeks to claim the Almighty Book for himself and reshape the world in his twisted image, an act which the organization considers forbidden.[37] He originally hailed from a clan consisting of the original Master Logos' descendants who had their lives extended and youth maintained across multiple generations to protect humanity and the Book of Ancients alongside Tassel since time immemorial.[48] However, Isaac slowly grew disillusioned towards humanity and angry at his predecessors for not using the Greater Book's power.[15] With help from the Megid, Storious, they manipulate their respective factions from the shadows to further their plans until the former eventually makes himself and his true intentions known by setting out to claim his swordsmen's Seiken to perform a ritual that will grant him god-like power.[23][57][53][58][59][38] In spite of the Northern Base swordsmen interrupting the ritual,[38] Isaac succeeds in manifesting his ancestor's half of the Tome of Omniscience as the Omni Force (オムニフォース, Omuni Fōsu) Wonder Ride Book as he discards his title as Master Logos and declares war on humanity.[15] While seeking to refine his power further, Isaac battles the swordsmen and the Shindais several times until Touma acquires the Haouken Xross Saber and overpowers him. Afterwards, Storious betrays and kills Isaac to steal the latter's Rider powers for his own plans.[80][46][47][48]
The Omni Force Wonder Ride Book grants its user omnikinesis, access to the powers of several Wonder and Alter Ride Books, and the ability to summon a golden version of the King Excalibur called the Caladbolg (カラドボルグ, Karadoborugu).[46] Additionally, Isaac can use Omni Force in conjunction with the Dooms Driver Buckle (ドゥームズドライバーバックル, Dūmuzu Doraibā Bakkuru) belt to transform into Kamen Rider Solomon (仮面ライダーソロモン, Kamen Raidā Soromon).[38][15][86] During combat, he is capable of summoning multiple giant Caladbolgs that can transform into the King of Solomon (キングオブソロモン, Kingu Obu Soromon) mecha as reinforcements.[87] He later acquires the ability to telepathically manipulate the Seiken and control their users like puppets, barring the Haouken Xross Saber and Touma.[48]

Reika Shindai

Upon learning of Isaac's true plans, she and Ryoga aid the Northern Base in stopping him,[38][15] and later Storious.[81] Initially cold and methodical, she slowly warms up to the other swordsmen over the course of the series,[53][38][15] but sometimes gets overzealous when anyone gets close to her brother.
Utilizing the Konchuu Daihyakka (昆虫大百科, Konchū Daihyakka, Great Encyclopedia of Insects) Wonder Ride Book in conjunction with the Eneiken Noroshi (煙叡剣狼煙, En'eiken Noroshi, Smoke Imperial Sword Smoke Signal) rapier, Reika can transform into Kamen Rider Sabela (仮面ライダーサーベラ, Kamen Raidā Sābera).

Ryoga Shindai
editRyoga Shindai (神代 凌牙, Shindai Ryōga) is a paladin and Reika's older brother known as the Time Swordsman (時の剣士, Toki no Kenshi).[91][5] As the right hand of whoever holds the "Master Logos" title, the stoic and prideful Ryoga initially serves the current holder, Isaac, despite seeing him as unworthy of the title. Upon discovering his superior had been planning to bring chaos to the world behind his and Reika's backs,[59] the disillusioned Shindais aid the Northern Base in stopping him.[38][15][81] Following the Sword of Logos' final battle with the Megid Storious,[17] Ryoga is elected to become part of the organization's new ruling council.[18]
Utilizing the Ocean History (オーシャンヒストリー, Ōshan Hisutorī) Wonder Ride Book in conjunction with the Jikokuken Kaiji (時国剣界時, Time Region Sword World Time) sword, which can be reconfigured into a trident, Ryoga can transform into Kamen Rider Durendal (仮面ライダーデュランダル, Kamen Raidā Dyurandaru).

Megids
editThe Megids (メギド, Megido) are monsters who tried to steal the Almighty Book two millennia ago before they were thwarted and renew their efforts in the present day.[92] They also seek to recreate the world with the Alter Book (アルターブック, Arutā Bukku), which can be used instead of the Greater Book, have the ability to assume their human forms, and summon Shimii (シミー, Shimī) foot soldiers to aid them in battle.[2][20]
The three commander Megids were originally the first humans to visit Wonder World millennia prior and friends of Tassel, the original Master Logos, and a priestess who connected Wonder World to Earth before they betrayed their friends and assumed their monstrous forms after stealing fragments of the Tome of Omniscience.[57][24][16] Upon their deaths, their human souls are released, purified, and return to Wonder World to reunite with Tassel, grateful to Touma for saving them.[24][53][17]
Storious
editStorious (ストリウス, Sutoriusu)[e] is a dark and reserved Megid who controls the genre of stories and values knowledge above all else.[2] 2,000 years prior, he was originally a poet who found enjoyment in creating new stories. While accompanying the original Master Logos and Victor to find the Almighty Book for humanity's benefit however, Storious fell into despair after the Tome of Omniscience revealed every work he had and would make in his lifetime. Believing humanity is incapable of creating original thoughts and embracing the idea that all things are at their most beautiful when they are ending,[93] he manipulates Legeiel and Zooous into becoming monsters alongside him and help him steal pages from the Almighty Book so he can end all existence. Retaining his original personality following his transformation,[16] Storious spends the next two millennia manipulating his comrades and Isaac into facilitating his goal.[31][32][7][4][23][38][15] After claiming his fallen Megid pawns' Alter Ride Books for the Tome of Omniscience fragments they contained and creating Charybdis to further his plot, Storious kills Isaac and Tassel to claim the Tome of Omniscience.[48][16][71] He then creates Another Sophia and has Charybdis consume her, numerous humans trapped in Ride Books, the Tome of Omniscience's fragments, and himself before emerging from Charybdis, destroying the Megid in the process. Using the newly created Grimoire (グリモワール, Gurimowāru) Wonder Ride Book,[81][69] Storious attempts to destroy both Wonder World and Earth,[70][93] but is defeated by Touma, Rintaro, and Kento via the power of the Wonder Almighty Wonder Ride Book. As he dies, Storious regrets his actions and rediscovers the meaning of joy.[17]
In his Megid form, Storious has ergokinesis, teleportation capabilities, self-duplication capabilities, the ability to fire eye-based lightning blasts, siphon energy, and seal the SworDrivers, and wields the two-pronged Bilgamed (ビルガメード, Birugamēdo) longsword.[32][94] After gaining the Grimoire Wonder Ride Book, Storious gains necromancy, which he uses to revive the Four Sages as his undead minions, the Lords of Wise. He can also use Grimoire in conjunction with the Dooms Driver Buckle to become Kamen Rider Storious (仮面ライダーストリウス, Kamen Raidā Sutoriusu).[95][69]
Storious is portrayed by Robin Furuya (古屋 呂敏, Furuya Robin).
Legeiel
editLegeiel (レジエル, Rejieru) is a calm, manipulative Megid who controls the genre of mythical creatures and was originally a humble and friendly individual.[2][31][16] Unlike his peers, he does not want to be actively involved, only lending his help when necessary.[7] However, his pride often gets the better of him, especially when things do not go his way. After being defeated by Saber with the Primitive Dragon Wonder Ride Book,[23] a frustrated and desperate Legeiel enhances his personal Alter Ride Book to evolve into Legeiel Forbidden (レジエル・フォビドゥン, Rejieru Fobidun) and seek revenge despite the fatal side effects of his transformation. However, Touma as Saber Elemental Primitive Dragon destroys Legeiel in an act of mercy.[24]
In battle, Legeiel has enhanced jumping capabilities, various elemental powers, the ability to reflect attacks, and wields the Bolhessed (ボルヘスド, Boruhesudo) double-edged sword.[32][94] As Legeiel Forbidden, he can combine his elemental powers and produce explosions.[24]
Legeiel is portrayed by Kyle Takano (高野 海琉, Takano Kairu).
Zooous
editZooous (ズオス, Zuosu) is a cruel, hot-headed Megid who controls the genre of animals and was originally a calm and cheerful individual.[2] In spite of his brutish personality, he prefers to fight worthy opponents, sparing those he considers weak or unmotivated to provoke and humiliate them into becoming stronger or more aggressive should they re-encounter each other in battle. 15 years prior, while taking part in the Megids' invasion, he murdered Sword of Logos member, Kenshin Nagamine. As a result, Zooous developed a rivalry with the swordsman's student and successor, Rintaro.[31][32][7][13][14] After evolving into Zooous Predator (ズオス・プレデター, Zuoso Puredetā) while fighting Rintaro and Touma,[14] the Megid faces the former while attacking the Northern Base and is destroyed by Rintaro as Blades Tategami Hyoujuu Senki.[53]
In battle, Zooous is the strongest of the Megid commanders, can adapt to any combat situation, produce fireballs, and teleport, and dual wields a pair of khopesh-esque swords called Jidora (ジドラ) and Gunu (グウヌ, Gūnu).[32][94] As Zooous Predator, he has access to a feral, berserker rage.[14]
Zooous is portrayed by Koji Saikawa (才川 コージ, Saikawa Kōji).
Charybdis
editCharybdis, also known as the Charybdis Megid (カリュブディスメギド, Karyubudisu Megido), is a namesake-themed hybrid Megid that Storious created for his agenda to recreate the Tome of Omniscience.[81] Charybdis came into being when Storious combines the Gansekiou Golem, Hanzaki Sanshouou, and Mienikui Ahirunoko Alter Ride Books into Charybdis' eponymous Alter Ride Book and using competitive eater Mami Imoto (伊本 マミ, Imoto Mami) as his host. While Charybdis is separated from Mami and destroyed by Kamen Rider Saikou,[11] Storious transfers the Alter Ride Book to Mami's twin sister Remi Imoto (伊本 レミ, Imoto Remi), with the reconstituted Charybdis devouring Mami to increase his power with both twins inside him. Though Kamen Riders Saber and Saikou destroy Charybdis once more after extracting the sisters,[96] Charybdis later reconstitutes without a host body and becomes Storious' enforcer.[5]
After partially devouring Desast and the Eternal Phoenix Wonder Ride Book to evolve into Charybdis Hercules (カリュブディス・ハーキュリー, Karyubudisu Hākyurī),[16] Charybdis enacts his role in Storious' plan by consuming him, Another Sophia, Legeiel and Zooous' Alter Ride Books, and numerous humans who were trapped in Ride Books before Storious destroys him from the inside out.[81]
In battle, Charybdis wields the Zarutsdra (ザルツドラ, Zarutsudora) hatchet and possesses his component Megids' powers, along with the added ability to consume anything and absorbing the powers of whatever he devours.[11][94] As Charybdis Hercules, he gains the ability to generate seismic tremors and Desast and Falchion's powers.[16]

Anyone who becomes Falchion utilizes the Eternal Phoenix (エターナルフェニックス, Etānaru Fenikkusu) Wonder Ride Book in conjunction with the scabbard-like Haken BlaDriver (覇剣ブレードライバー, Haken Burēdoraibā, Supreme Sword BlaDriver) belt and the Mumeiken Kyomu (無銘剣虚無, Unmarked Sword Void) knightly sword in order to transform.

Bahato
editBahato (バハト) is the first Void Swordsman and a former ally of Yuri's from millennia prior who first appears in the film Kamen Rider Saber Theatrical Short Story: The Phoenix Swordsman and the Book of Ruin. Bahato was a Sword of Logos member until his family was slain by someone he considered a close friend before they became obsessed with power. After avenging his family, a deranged Bahato deemed humanity irredeemable and attempted to erase the world using the Book of Ruin (破滅の本, Hametsu no Hon), only for Yuri to seal him in it. During the events of the film, Bahato is released and attempts to reenact his plan before Touma re-seals him.[39] Late into the series, Isaac comes into possession of the Book of Ruin and frees Bahato to aid in his plan in obtaining godhood and destroying humanity.[59][38][15] After Touma kills Bahato, Desast takes the latter's sword while his soul returns to Wonder World, his faith in humanity restored.[46][17]
Bahato is portrayed by Masashi Taniguchi (谷口 賢志, Taniguchi Masashi).[104]
Desast
editDesast (デザスト, Dezasuto) is a Fenrir/Japanese tiger beetle/"The Singing Bone"-themed rogue, hybrid Megid who Storius created on a whim with no purpose in mind, which Desast compensates by fighting ideal opponents.[71] 15 years prior, Desast took part in the Megids' invasion and killed several of the Sword of Logos' swordsmen before he was sealed in his eponymous Alter Ride Book. In the present, Daichi releases Desast so the latter can rejoin the Megids' fight against the Sword of Logos. However, Desast chooses to act independently instead.[105][31] Desast takes an interest in Ren due to their similar mindsets, accompanying the ninja after he leaves the Sword of Logos.[68][58] Following Bahato's demise at Touma's hands, Desast stealthily takes the former's sword and becomes the new Falchion to battle Storious, only for Charybdis to damage his Alter Ride Book.[46][16] Slowly dying as a result, he forces Ren to face him in battle and give him a honorable death.[81]
In battle, Desast has teleportation capabilities, the ability to hide in shadows, and wields the bone-like Grudge Dent (グラッジデント, Gurajji Dento) sword, with which he can perform the Calamity Strike (カラミティ・ストライク, Karamiti Sutoraiku) finisher and wield as Falchion alongside the Mumeiken Kyomu.[31][16]
After becoming Falchion, he also became immortal and makes use of the Eternal Phoenix Wonder Ride Book in an attempt to negate his damaged Alter Ride Book's effects, though the former contributes to the latter's damage in the process and slowly kills him.[81]
During the events of the web-exclusive crossover series Kamen Rider Outsiders, Desast is revived by Foundation X and acquires the Gaikotsu Ninjaden (骸骨忍者伝, Skeleton Ninja Legend) Wonder Ride Book, a SworDriver, and the Kokuranken Shikkoku (黒嵐剣漆黒, Black Storm Sword Jet Black) sword, which allow him to transform into Kamen Rider Desast (仮面ライダーデザスト, Kamen Raidā Dezasuto).[106][107]
Desast is voiced by Kōki Uchiyama (内山 昂輝, Uchiyama Kōki).[105]
Yuri
editYuri (ユーリ, Yūri) is an ancient swordsman known as the Light Swordsman (光の剣士, Hikari no Kenshi) who once wielded the Ankokuken Kurayami and the Kougouken Saikou (光剛剣最光, Kōgōken Saikō, Light Mighty Sword Ultimate Light) short sword millennia ago. After his friend Bahato went mad, Yuri was forced to seal him in the Book of Ruin before merging himself with the Kougouken Saikou and sealing himself in turn with the King of Arthur Wonder Ride Book in Avalon. After Touma reaches Avalon and claims King of Arthur in the present, Yuri is freed, gains the ability to project an illusion of his human form, and bears witness to Touma's struggles following Kento's apparent death at Daichi's hands from afar.[108][34][3][9] After Touma defeats Daichi, Yuri approaches the former to warn him of a traitor within the Sword of Logos' Southern Base before helping the novelist clear his name, convincing the Northern Base's swordsmen of the truth, and joining them in stopping the present-day Master Logos, Isaac, and later the Megid Storious.[4][11][59][48] Following Storious' defeat,[17] Yuri is elected to become part of the Sword of Logos' new ruling council.[18]
Utilizing the Kin no Buki Gin no Buki (金の武器 銀の武器, The Golden Weapon and the Silver Weapon) Wonder Ride Book in conjunction with the Seiken Saikou Driver (聖剣サイコウドライバー, Seiken Saikō Doraibā, Holy Sword Saikou Driver) belt, Yuri can transform back into the Kougouken Saikou and become known as Kamen Rider Saikou (仮面ライダー最光, Kamen Raidā Saikō) in the present.[109] While transformed, he gains photokinesis and is capable of fighting through telekinetic movements on his own, though he can also be wielded by either a living silhouette called Saikou Shadow (最光シャドー, Saikō Shadō) or another swordsman.[108][10][97] Additionally, the Kougouken Saikou is connected to the Ankokuken Kurayami, which allows him to summon the latter and combine both swords' power to create a black hole-like portal and teleport his opponent to another location.[80]
