''If you're looking for information on [[The Hidden City]] altars, please see [[Altared Perceptions]]''

[[An Altar]] is located at the heart of [[The Suburbs of Dis]]. You must gather various stones that the demons are carrying from the outlying zones.

''Without any stones:''
:This altar was chiseled from stone by damned souls<br />There's a circle atop it, of six small round holes<br />Oh the things it might do if those six holes were filled!<br />When you think about that, you're both frightened and thrilled!<br />But nothing you've got fits inside those depressions,<br />Perhaps demon fights would augment your possessions?

''With at least one, but not all stones:''

:This altar was chiseled from stone by damned souls<br />There's a circle atop it, of six small round holes.<br />Say! There's some stones that you've got that might work!<br />With a smirk, you insert them, then feel like a jerk,<br />There are more holes than stones, you infurbious blix!<br />If you're going to set stones you should maybe have six?

''With all six stones:''

:'''Reality Altered by Altar'''
:You place your six stones in the holes on the altar,<br />The ground starts to shake! Your resolve starts to falter!<br />The brimstone in front of you opens up wide,<br />And you see a repulsive thing rise from inside!<br />It nods at you lazily, eyes full of scorn

{{Combat|name=The Thing with No Name}}

''After beating The Thing with No Name:''
:This devilish altar's got just two holes left<br />Since you carved up the Thing With no Name (you're so deft!)<br />And though any claim 'bout these holes may be spurious,<br />You could put two stones in them. That is, if you're curious.

''With a successful combination:''
:You put your stones in; there's a grinding that's fright'ning<br />And then you are struck by a bolt of black lightning!

''When the combination fails to make something:''
:You've placed your two stones, but the altar stays mute.<br />That's a combo that doesn't do anything! Shoot!

''When not placing 2 stones:''
:You must select two stones.

==Notes==
*After beating The Thing with No Name, all 6 stones are destroyed and must be regained by battling the bosses again.
