Brotherhood (weapon)

The Brotherhood is Tidus's signature sword in the game Final Fantasy X. It appears in several other games as well.

Final Fantasy X
It used to belong to Chappu, who was Wakka's brother. Wakka gave it to him as a gift for when he fought as part of the Crusaders against Sin, which occured one year prior to the story-line of FFX. However, on the day Chappu died, he didn't take his sword, but decided to fight with an Al Bhed machina weapon instead. This is what made Wakka despise machina, as well as the Al Bhed, on a personal plane, rather than on just a religious one. Wakka decides to give it to Tidus, because he reminds Wakka of Chappu.

When the party visits the Farplane and Tidus listens to Wakka speaking with the image of Chappu, the sword will be enhanced, adding Strength +10%, Waterstrike and Sensor. Even though the player gets this sword pretty much at the beginning of actual gameplay, it is arguably Tidus' strongest non-upgradable weapon, second only to his Celestial Weapon, Caladbolg. However, the Brotherhood has a disadvantage against certain fiends if they are immune to, or even worse, absorb Water-elemental attacks.

Final Fantasy X-2

Final Fantasy XII
Gilgamesh pulls out a replica of the Brotherhood sword, clearly a fake, as it has a hook on each side, unlike the original.
