Blessings are special items that are received after praying at a Spiritual Shrine. They are placed in the slot adjacent to the spell slot, and are either lost upon death or destroyed after one use. Picking up a second special item will replace your first one.

Hermes' Boots[edit]

File:Hermes boots.png Regular spikes can be walked on.

Does not prevent ground spike traps from triggering like P.A.D. does. It also does not prevent damage from wall or ceiling spikes.

If a Paladin blocks while standing on floor spike's it will activate the shield and use mana.

Charon's Obol[edit]

Charon's Obol

Allows you to enter the castle without paying Charon's toll. It will be used the next time you enter the castle; you cannot choose not to use it.

Oh hoh ho! So you have my obol. I will let you pass for free, but only this one time.

Nerdy Glasses[edit]
