Biography
Swiftblade is the second eldest of the Blade Brothers. His dojo is a building in the southwest corner of Hyrule Town. Unlike the other Brothers, he teaches four separate techniques: the Spin Attack,[3] Dash Attack,[4] Rock Breaker,[5] and Down Thrust.[6] In order to learn the latter three techniques, Link must obtain the White Sword,[7] Pegasus Boots,[8][9] and Roc's Cape,[10] respectively.
After Link Fuses Kinstones with the Postman, Swiftblade will also start writing the Swordsman Newsletter.[11]
