Expiration (Japanese:邪竜のブレスEvil Dragon's Breath) is abreath-type attack that first appeared inFire Emblem Awakening. It is exclusively used by the Fell DragonGrima, in his appearances as the final boss ofAwakening and as "The Creation" inEchoes: Shadows of Valentia. Being the weapon of a final boss, it is among the most dangerous weapons in both games, possessing both significantmight and a very longrange. InShadows of Valentia, it is amonster weapon with the ability to ignore its target's defenses, like all breath weapons in that game.
InAwakening, Expiration has two distinct animations, which appear to be chosen completely at random every time Grima attacks and do not differ in terms of stats. One has Grima's human body summon a trail of purple spikes out of the ground to impale his foe, while the other has Grima breathe a shadowy fireball from his dragon head. This property is similar to howIdunn'sDark Breath has three separate animations. InShadows of Valentia, it only appears as the shadowy fireball, although The Creation still uses the spikes separately as itsDark Spikes combat art.

Trivia
- If hacked into the player's inventory inAwakening, it is sorted in thestones section of theconvoy. This is presumably due to the convoy not having abreath category.
Etymology and other languages

| Language | Name | Definition, etymology, and notes |
| English | Expiration | Originally, "expiration" referred to the act of breathing out, the opposite of "inspiration" (breathing in). In modern English, this meaning is obsolete and "expiration" instead describes the act of dying or, more commonly, the spoiling of food. Grima's attack plays on both senses of the word. |
