How Obtained

When Used in Combat

You fling the black hole in an arc, giving your opponent a glimpse of the event horizon as the projectile goes past. Briefly dumped into a vision of pure chaos, pure evil, the <foe> cowers and cries "liberate me" which probably means something in Latin, but you're too busy to look it up. Your opponent takes 60 damage.

or

Your fingers accidentally brush the edge of the black hole as you try to throw the star, causing you to plummet through the singularity and pop out the other side, falling into a parallel universe where it's sixty seconds earlier than when you left.

Your opponent is obviously horribly confused by this act, and pulls a brain muscle trying to figure out what happened, taking 63 damage.

References

  • A black hole is a region of space in which the gravitational field is so powerful that nothing, can escape its pull. This is referred to in the description.
  • "liberate me" refers to Libera Me, a Roman Catholic prayer sung by the coffin before burial. The literal meaning is "deliver me".
    • More specific to this item, "liberate me" and other parts of the damage message refer to the movie Event Horizon_(film) which involves a space ship powered by a black hole.
