Fruit of Helheim is the original form of the Lockseeds, that grow in the Helheim Forest. They normally look like fruit. However, if anyone wearing a Sengoku Driver picks them, they turn into Lockseeds.
Anyone wearing a Sengoku Driver would not be tempted to eat them. In Kamen Rider × Kamen Rider Gaim & Wizard: The Fateful Sengoku Movie Battle, Kosuke Nitoh has been shown to not be tempted to eating them, due to wearing the Beast Driver. The Inves love the Helheim fruits, both as their original state or as Lockseeds, regarding them as their favorite and only food, and will attempt to protect them if they are picked. In the Helheim Forest, Inves eat the fruits by eating the core of the fruit and throwing the rest of it away immediately afterwards when they are done.

People who don't wear a Driver when entering Helheim or/and nearby the place where the Helheim crack portal was opened out of nowhere will become tempted to eat the fruits, and it takes outside help to make sure they don't eat it. When a living being does eat a Helheim fruit, be it human or animal, it quickly rewrites the consumer's DNA and minds, and they will turn into an Inves. Should that person already be on the verge of becoming an Overlord due to other reasons, such as exposure to the Forbidden Fruit or being wounded by Overlords, eating the fruit will increase the consumer's powers significantly.
Confirmed Effected Category H Inves
In human cases like Ryoji Hase, he turned into a Advanced Inves, where the Yggdrasill higher-ups then calls them "Category H" Inves; Inves that were formerly human.
- Yuya Sumii - Komori Inves
- Ryoji Hase - Hekija Inves
- Kaito Kumon - Advanced Inves / Over Lord
- Kouta Kazuraba - Over Lord Inves
These people were tempted to eat a Fruit, but something or someone made them stop.
- Kouta Kazuraba almost ate a Helheim fruit when he first entered the forest, but was stopped by Mai who found the Sengoku Driver that Yuya dropped when he mutated into the Byakko Inves.
- Right Suzuki / ToQ 1gou almost ate a Helheim fruit when he first entered the forest, but was stopped by Kouta by shooting the fruit out of Right's hand with the Musou Saber in Gun Mode.
- A desperately hungry Oren Pierre Alfonzo also picked a fruit when he found himself trapped in the forest, but refrained from eating it at the last moment, remembering his survival training which taught him to not consume unknown flora in the field. He becomes the only person ever seen to be tempted to eat a fruit but chooses not to without outside help.
On Inves
When fruits of Helheim are eaten by Inves themselves, the consumption makes them stronger and evolve their present forms. Elementary Inves, upon eating enough Helheim fruits or Lockseeds, evolve into Advanced Inves. When the Inves in its Advanced state consumes another Helheim fruit or Lockseed, be it the one that summoned them or a completely different Lockseed, such as when the Shika Inves ate Gaim's Ichigo Lockseed, they will evolve into higher form called a Strengthened Form. If an Elementary Inves consumes a multitude of Lockseeds, it is capable of bypassing its Advanced form and evolves straight into its Strengthened Form.
- Upon eating a bunch of Helheim fruits, a Lion Inves grew to the size of a Sentai Robo.
- Seeking greater power, the Over Lord Inves Demushu accessed an Evolved Form by eating premature Lockseeds. His transformation was signified by the growth of two horns on his shoulders.
Helheim fruit converted into Lockseeds can be used as an alternative food source if a person holding a Lockseed inserts it in a Sengoku Driver like Kouta Kazuraba and Takatora Kureshima had done, who had used a Himawari Lockseed as a substitute for food. Presumably, this was how the remnants of humanity would survive 10 years after Helheim took over and mutated everything to be too hazardous to eat.
Certain monsters have been shown to eat the fruit without it affecting their minds. The non-humanoid or other Kaijin like Phantom Chimera was completely unaffected by the fruit, though it is unknown how he was able to eat it while within Kosuke's Underworld, but still boost its power, like an Over Lord Inves, such as Demushu may enter an evolved state after eating the fruit. Seemingly, other Kamen Rider suits can protect other humans (such as Wizard and Drive), but the other non-Rider suits like the Super Sentai suit can't protect the wearer from the temptation of the fruit (as seen with Right.)
