A century after the [[Hero (Dragon Quest I)|Hero]] landed the fatal blow on the Dragonlord using the Sword of Erdrick, the fabled blade has been left in the Dragonlord's Castle. Due to years of disuse, the legendary sword has been worn-out and [[faded blade|rusted over the years]], losing its former might. When the Dragonlord's great-grandson met the current Scions of Erdrick, he presented them their ancestor's legendary blade as a sign of trust and goodwill that he will support the scions in their fight against [[Hargon]]'s reign of terror. However, the blade can be restored to its former might. In order to do this, the player must find a descendant of the swordsmith in Kol. There, he will request the scions of Erdrick to retrieve a chunk of [[Orichalcum]], the same material used to forge the legendary blade by his ancestor, and finding information about the fabled ore in [[Tantegel]] from a thief. The thief will then give clues on the location of the Orichalcum in the hidden depths of the [[Craggy Cave]].

In the postgame, after defeating the empowered Dragonlord's great-grandson in trial combat, he uses the power of the [[Sphere of Light]] to upgrade Erdrick's sword and shield to their "supreme" versions. With an attack bonus of +228, [[Erdrick's Supreme Sword]] is the most powerful weapon in the game, though it does fire or lightning damage (defaulting to the least resisted of the two), meaning some monsters are immune to it. | In the postgame, after defeating the empowered Dragonlord's great-grandson in trial combat, he uses the power of the [[Sphere of Light]] to upgrade Erdrick's sword and shield to their "supreme" versions.
