SO, THEY’RE SWORD?

Nope, they’re not SWORD (Or SHIELD or WHO or Black Air or WAND or another other official agency. Hell, they aren’t even an acronym.). However, thanks to its connections to SWORD, SHIELD, Asgard, Atlantis, and X-Force, it’s possible for eXcalibur to retrieve highly dangerous artifacts, contain them, and then hand them off to people who are better equipped to deal with items of Power.
