Holy Symbol

Spellcasting Focus Varies

A holy symbol is a representation of a god or pantheon. It might be an amulet depicting a symbol representing a deity, the same symbol carefully engraved or inlaid as an emblem on a shield, or a tiny box holding a fragment of a sacred relic. A cleric or paladin can use a holy symbol as a spell-casting focus. To use the symbol in this way, the caster must hold it in hand, wear it visibly, or bear it on a shield.   Multiple variations of this item exist, as listed below:

  • Amulet
  • Emblem
  • Reliquary
