Trivia[]
- The Bat Pentagram will change forms depending on which hand the player uses it with.
- The Bat Pentagram's design comes from an astrological/zodiacal interpretation found on the Oedipus Aegyptiacus, tomes of studies on Egyptology done by 17th century German scholar Athanasius Kircher.
- Even if they're referred to as "pentagrams", meaning they should have five-pointed stars, the icons for the Pentagram and Bat Pentagram, as well as the animation of the former, depict them having six-pointed stars instead.
