Blue Candle

"Lose 1 HP" will completely ignore Block and deal direct damage.

Playing a Curse does not cost any Energy.

Trivia Edit

This relic is a reference to the Blue Candle item from The Legend of Zelda.
If the Necronomicurse is played, it will be returned to your hand; while this means you can't escape the Necronomicurse, you can play it as this way as many times as you want, and that interaction can be exploited in a number of ways. It allows you to take arbitrary amounts of damage in one-damage increments, triggering useful on-damage effects like Rupture or Blood for Blood; each play still counts as an exhaust, so it will trigger on-exhaust effects like Dead Branch, Dark Embrace, Charon's Ashes; and each one counts as a card played, so it can trigger things like Panache or A Thousand Cuts.
