Fulgur is the name for any Thunder-related glyph.
Overview
There are two kinds of Fulgur glyphs:
- One is a lightning bolt that arcs upward and then strikes down on top of the nearest enemy, which is performed with the "Vol Fulgur" glyph in Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia, and with the "Fulgur" glyph in Castlevania: Harmony of Despair.
- The other is a lightning ball called Lightning Bolt, which is performed with the "Fulgur" glyph in Order of Ecclesia.
In Order of Ecclesia, when any two Fulgur glyphs are used in a glyph union, a bolt of lightning crashes down on Shanoa's position and a large ball of lightning is formed above her head. It remains in place for a few seconds and releases bolts of electricity at any enemy on the screen. When used with any normal weapon glyph, a giant lightning spear is thrust forward, hitting multiple times. Fulgur glyphs are incompatible with any other glyph.

Trivia
- The names of both glyphs, Fulgur and Vol Fulgur, seem to have been erroneously interchanged in the final release of Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia. "Vol" generally denotes a glyph of medium power, and Vol Fulgur, which is the weakest of both glyphs, can be found very early in the game, in Minera Prison Island. Fulgur, which is a medium powered electricity glyph, can only be acquired later in the game, in Tristis Pass.
- In Castlevania: Harmony of Despair, the names seem to have been corrected and Fulgur now acts like the Vol Fulgur version from Order of Ecclesia.
- Fulgur is Latin for "lightning".
