COLLECTABLES

During your journey you can collect
Bonus Items that increase your health
capacity and TK power. Some items are
hidden in arcane containers that must
be shattered with the Reaver to release
the treasures within. You can collect
Health Talismans, Telekinetic Runes
and Arcane Tomes.

HEALTH TALISMANS

Each Talisman is broken into three
fragments. The character’s health
capacity increases one level each time
he completes a Talisman by collecting
its three fragments. Each character can
find a total of 12 shards, for a potential
total of four complete health upgrades.

TELEKINETIC RUNES

Each Rune enlarges the character’s
TK Meter, increasing his capacity to use
Telekinesis. Each character can find
a total of 8 TK Runes.

ARCANE TOMES

You can unlock special bonus materials
by finding Arcane Tomes hidden
throughout the game. When you find
a Tome, approach it to collect it.
Each character can find a total
of 10 Arcane Tomes.

SPECIAL ATTACKS

Over the course of the game, Kain and
Raziel earn experience based on how
well they perform in combat. Their
progress is tallied by the Reaver Meter

based on the complexity of the combos
performed and how often the Reaver
Gauge is built to a full charge.
As Kain and Raziel reach each of the
five combat experience levels, they are
awarded a new Special Attack. Each
attack earned is shown by a colored
pip next to the Reaver Meter on the
Status Screen.
