―Calibur to the Megid generals^[src]

Hayato Fukamiya (富加宮 隼人, Fukamiya Hayato) is a former member of the Sword of Logos and current ally of Megid who transforms into Kamen Rider Calibur (仮面ライダーカリバー, Kamen Raidā Karibā).

History

Early Life and Betrayal

Hayato was once a member of the Sword of Logos, Ryo Ogami's best friend and the father of Kento Fukamiya. Fifteen years prior to the start of the series however, he defected to the Megid and tried to take the Book of Ancients for himself. While his theft was thwarted, it led to the Book of Ancients' pages being scattered across the globe and manifesting as Wonder Ride Books. Believing the Kaenken Rekka and the Brave Dragon Wonder Ride Book to be lost forever after betraying the guild, Hayato chose to join the Megid to assist them in recreating the ancient book via Alter Ride Books as another way to Avalon without the items he needed. His main goal seems to have something to do with the mysterious Avalon, and the keys are the Brave Dragon Wonder Ride Book and the Kaenken Rekka; the reason why is because that Brave Dragon and his own Jakku Dragon can open a rift that leads to the realm when used together.

A Chance Rises Again

In the present day, Calibur announced to the Megid generals that the time for them to make a new world had come. He handed the Gansekiou Golem Alter Ride Book to Legeiel and sent him to create the Golem Megid so it can attack the city and complete the book. However, Touma Kamiyama appeared and destroyed the Megid; this pleased Hayato, as the nuisance wielded the missing key he needed for his plan. With a new Saber, he informs the Megid generals that the other swordsmen will arrive soon.

As Calibur, Hayato and his fellow cohorts observed the second Kamen Rider Blades, Rintaro Shindo, joining Saber in fighting against the Ari Megid. Calibur was unperturbed by this disturbance when the two Riders destroyed the Ari and Kirigirisu Megid, simply remarking that the swordsmen had only accelerated his plans.

When Ryo Ogami, Kamen Rider Buster, appeared and destroyed the second Golem Megid, Calibur commented on the swordsman's emergence, knowing full well that Buster was actually his former friend.

After the first few Megid attacks, Calibur decides to finally make his move and appears after Touma and Rintaro defeated the Hanzaki Megid. After overpowering the two swordsmen, he attempts to finish them with the Donkugo Issen, but his son Kento, now the new Thunder Swordsman, blocks the attack and sends Calibur away into a isolated floating island in the Wonder World. After releasing Desast from his Alter Ride Book, he attempts to take Touma's sword and his Brave Dragon Wonder Ride Book by fighting him. When both dragon Riders witness a spark between Brave Dragon and Jakku Dragon, Calibur's suspicions about Saber are confirmed to be true; before he say anything further, Espada gets in the way by lunging at him, leaving Saber to deal with the Piranha Megid alone. Espada furiously questioned Calibur about why he betrayed the Sword of Logos, only to give nothing but silence; Espada relentlessly attacks him without thinking, all while revealing who he once was. Just as Calibur was about to finish him, Ryo, as Buster, arrives to deflect the attack and save Espada. After escaping the battlefield, Hayato confirms that without Brave Dragon and the sword, he cannot reach Avalon. This does not escape the notice of Storious, who decides that it would be in his interest to help him. He then hands a mysterious book to him, only asking him what he intends to do after he gets to Avalon.

Personality

Before betraying the Sword of Logos, he proved to be a loving father to Kento; when he betrayed the Sword of Logos, he became cruel and obsessed with fulfilling his plans.

• Shutoku Issen (習得一閃, Shūtoku Issen, Lit. "Learning Flash"): Calibur scans a Wonder Ride Book against the base of the blade, and performs an attack based off of it.

Notes

• Kamen Rider Calibur has some similarities with Kamen Rider Ryuga:
  • Both of them are the dragon-themed dark counterparts of their respective main heroes.
  • Both Calibur and Ryuga also have dark versions of their respective season's protagonist's powers. (Jaaku Dragon Wonder Ride Book and Dragblacker).
• Hayato, as Kamen Rider Calibur, is similar to Demonic General of Betrayal Galza from Mashin Sentai Kiramager, Saber's current Super Hero Time partner, as they betrayed the hero factions and instead joined with their respective show's villainous factions as one of their generals.
• Like Ryo Ogami, he is the second Kamen Rider in Saber who is a father, though Hayato falls under the category of one who does not (or rather no longer) play an active parenting role.
• Despite having the identity already revealed, Hayato's first transformation into Calibur is still censored. This is a first time of a rider to have the situation to be reversed in telling the person's identity behind the rider form.
