 Sacramental bread, also informally known as "holy wafers", Communion bread, Communion wafer, Sacred host, Eucharistic bread, the Lamb, or simply the host (Latin: hostia, lit. 'sacrificial victim'), is the bread used in the Christian ritual of the Eucharist, where it is one of the two main elements along with sacramental wine&mdash;this bread may be either leavened or unleavened, depending on tradition. Catholic theology generally teaches that at the Words of Institution the bread's substance is changed into the Body of Christ, a process known as transubstantiation. Conversely, Eastern Christian theology generally views the epiclesis as the point at which the change occurs.
-The effects of a holy wafer when eaten are based on the commonplace conflation between the alignments of ''[[Dungeons & Dragons]]'' and holiness (or lack thereof), with lawful typically being considered the holiest of alignments and chaotic being the unholiest&mdash;this is despite the fact that even within both ''Dungeons & Dragons'' and ''[[NetHack]]'' alike, the alignment system is not truly correlated with whether or not a given being is good or evil, let alone holy or unholy.

-Holy wafers are a more filling cure for sickness and lycanthropy than a [[eucalyptus leaf]] or [[sprig of wolfsbane]], and can even be used to heal substantially by a lawful hero in the early game, but they are still fairly rare with the exception of starting inventories. Even a chaotic hero may consider using it to cure sickness or lycanthropy in a tight spot, though this is not advisable if they are at low health. Eucalyptus and wolfsbane may also be preferable for their lower nutrition if a hero is nearing (over)satiation.
