An intricately carved idol of some nameless godling, hewn of translucent orange crystal. Its lifeless eyes seem to glitter uncannily with a wicked intelligence. It is capable of unleashing a powerful psychic assault upon the minds of any who approach it.


Useful Info

Every turn you are in the line of sight of an orange crystal statue, there is a 66.6% chance that it will inflict a random Divinations miscast effect on you. If your current intelligence is less than 8, you are at risk of instantly being reduced to 0 intelligence if you have no quick means of recovering from having 0 intelligence. Other effects include confusion or draining your MP. They can be found in various vaults almost anywhere after the early Dungeon.
