Earned Abilities
By absorbing the souls of his undead brethren in Soul Reaver, Raziel could gain new abilities. These helped him to access previously unreachable areas in Nosgoth, including concealed Glyph Altars.
|
Gained from: | Melchiah, in the Necropolis |
|---|---|---|
| Elder God's quote: | "Consuming Melchiah's soul has endowed you with a new gift. Insubstantial barriers such as these [referring to the bars the block Raziel's exit] are no impediment to you in the Spectral Realm. Will yourself to pass through, and you shall." | |
| This ability allowed Raziel to pass through grates and gates while in the Spectral Realm. He could also phase through some doors, providing they were not entirely solid. | ||
|
Gained from: | Zephon, in the Silenced Cathedral |
|---|---|---|
| Elder God's quote: | "Consuming Zephon's apostate soul has bestowed on you a new gift. Like his vampire spawn, you're able to scale certain walls which are otherwise impassable, but only in the physical realm. In the spirit world, these insubstantial edifices will not support you." | |
| The spider-like Zephonim had the ability to scale up vertical surfaces. From Zephon, Raziel gained a slightly weaker version of their skill. He could only climb certain types of wall. In the Spectral Realm, all walls were insubstantial and could not be scaled at all. | ||
|
Gained from: | An artefact, after defeating Morlock in the Tomb of the Sarafan |
|---|---|---|
| Elder God's quote: | "This relic has infused you with the power to compress and manipulate space. As your symbiotic weapon, the Soul Reaver is also thus enhanced. You may focus and project an orb of kinetic energy to strike objects that are otherwise beyond your reach." | |
| This ability allowed Raziel to throw a blast of telekinetic energy. It could be used to break windows, move blocks or knock enemies into environmental hazards, like water. If Raziel was armed with the Soul Reaver, the blade inherited this ability, and damaging projectiles could be fired from it. | ||
|
Gained from: | Rahab, in the Drowned Abbey |
|---|---|---|
| Elder God's quote: | "Infused with Rahab's soul, you have overcome your former vulnerability to water's touch. Immersion in water will no longer dissolve your physical body, enabling you to swim to areas heretofore beyond your reach." | |
| Once Raziel gained this ability, his physical body no longer dissolved when submerged in water. Raziel could only swim in the Material Realm, as water had "neither heft nor lift" in the Spectral Realm. | ||
|
Gained from: | Dumah, in the Ruined City of the Dumahim |
|---|---|---|
| Elder God's quote: | "Consuming Dumah's soul empowers you to wind a constricting band of Spectral energy around your enemies. This energy manifests itself in both the Spectral and Material realms, and in the physical world, it can be employed to manipulate otherwise immovable objects." | |
| This ability allowed Raziel to turn mechanisms like gears or sundials. If he ran around an object, a ribbon of energy appeared and trailed behind him. Once the ribbon formed a complete circle, the object turned. Raziel could use Constrict to stun vampires and kill humans. | ||
