==Useful Info==
'''Diamond obelisks''' are uncommon [[statue]]s found in circular [[vault]]s in the later parts of the game. They cannot move and have no attacks to speak of, but they are nearly invulnerable and surrounded by an endless windstorm effect, similar to the [[Tornado]] spell. At the far end of the vault is a single item of [[acquirement]] quality, but getting past them can take a ridiculous amount of firepower.  

If you step into the tornado, expect to be swirled about uncontrollably, taking a fair amount of damage every turn.  The only way to exit the tornado is to step onto an empty square &ndash; if you find yourself lucky enough to be at its edge.  Thankfully, you can also [[blink]] or [[teleport]] out.

==Tips & Tricks==
*The tornado is completely predictable. If you don't make any movement while you are being transported, leaving the tornado is a very easy task.
*While characters under the effect of Tornado are immune to enemy Tornadoes, this windstorm will still affect you normally.
