How to learn

  • Found in 5th, 6th, and 7th level spellbooks.
  • Pentagrams can be learned from maids. When a maid picks up a cursed object, she will either uncurse it (80% chance) or discard it by banishing it to the lowest level of hell (the Sanctum) (20% chance). A semi-permanent ink pentagram is drawn as part of the banishment ritual.
