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.

Tips & Tricks

Variant Orange Crystal Statues

Wucad mu statue.png A Statue of Wucad Mu guards the inner treasure chambers of Wucad Mu's Monastery. Destroying it has the added bonus of wiping out any shadowy monks that are still running around.

This statue, made from a fine glassy orange crystal, depicts a mystic known as Wucad Mu, who mastered the matters of the mind. Beware of the statue's powers, as you have no chance in mental combat against it.

Zot statue.png A Lunar statue guards a single acquirement-level item on Lehudib's Moon Base. This variant has Lehudib's Crystal Spear in addition to the spells above and a 20% higher cast rate.

An utterly bizarre statue, hewn from a single piece of dark gabbro scintillating with tiny crystals. It is impossible to tell whether the statue is intended to represent some creature or personage, or is completely abstract.

One thing is certain: it is profoundly disturbing.

History

Prior to 0.17 they were speed 6 and did not have the Shadow Creatures or Abjuration spells.

Prior to 0.15, orange crystal statues inflicted the intelligence loss, MP drain, and confusion through irresistible Divinations miscast effects. They could also be immediately destroyed with a zap from a wand of disintegration.
