Description

Unique charm bestowed by the King of Hallownest to his most loyal knight. Scratched and dirty, but still cared for.

Causes the bearer to emit a heroic odour.

How to Acquire

Reward from defeating Dung Defender in the Royal Waterways.

Usefulness

Intermittently emits toxic clouds at the Knight's location, dealing damage to nearby enemies at a rate of 1-3 damage per tick.

The clouds are not very powerful and have very little range, making it situational rather than universal. The player may use this in situations where they are fleeing enemies, as the clouds will linger behind the Knight and damage pursuing enemies.

Costing only one notch, it is most effective when used with one of the other charms listed below, as it greatly increases their power.

It also damages Uomas, triggering their explosion. As such, it is best to use caution when traversing these areas with this charm equipped.

Charm Interactions

For charm interaction damage, see Damage Values.

Spore Shroom

Spore Shroom

Creates a large toxic cloud after casting Focus, dealing more damage than the standard spore cloud.
Flukenest

Flukenest

Glowing Womb

Glowing Womb

Creates toxic flies that release a small toxic cloud upon impact with an enemy.
