The Mitre of Holiness is the Priest quest artifact. It is the prize for completing the Priest quest, and is lawful for wishing purposes. Its base item type is a helm of brilliance.

Effects

When carried, the Mitre of Holiness confers fire resistance. When worn, it also provides the normal effects of a helm of brilliance, as well as extrinsic protection - augmenting your magic cancellation as a ring of protection, but not cumulative with one. If the wearer is a Priest, they also take half physical damage from all undead monsters and major demons - this property does not stack with other half physical damage sources.[1]

When invoked, you get an energy boost equal to half of your maximum power, with a cap of 120; if it would have given you less than 12 energy, it fully refills your energy instead.[2]
