A blessed trident moulded by cleansing flame, with three points symbolising the combined might of the three holy gods. It is a favoured weapon of the Shining One's servants.
This weapon falls into the Polearms category. It can be used with one hand, or more effectively with two (i.e. when not using a shield), and it is better for the dexterous.

The trishula, like the eudemon blade and the sacred scourge, is a formerly-demonic weapon which has been blessed by the Shining One. You can create one by having TSO bless a demon trident on his altar. The ensuing trishula is an excellent defensive weapon, combining adequate speed and damage with a reaching effect and the ability to wield a shield with little negative impact. Its holy wrath brand makes it excel in the late game, a perfect weapon to poke enemies with from behind a wall of summoned angels and daevas.

Unlike the other TSO-blessed weapons, you cannot find ordinary trishulas anywhere; to get one, you must use his blessing on a demon trident to create a blessed trishula.

You can turn a trishula into a demon trident by using Kiku's or Lugonu's final ability to replace its brand with pain or distortion, though this is rarely a good trade.
