View source for Infernal Seals

{{NeedsSpading|comment=Do [[Combat Frequency]] modifiers affect the chance of encountering an infernal seal non-combat?}}

[[Seal Clubber]]s can summon and fight several kinds of Infernal Seals. Once summoned, a seal is immediately fought. All seals, due to their infernal nature, have incredible resistance to damage; the only way to put a dent in these terrible creatures' hides is with a [[:Category:Clubs|club]] equipped. However, your offhand weapon appears to work as normal even if it is not a club.

Infernal Seals are summoned using a seal figurine and a certain number of either [[seal-blubber candle]]s or [[imbued seal-blubber candle]]s outside of combat. Summoning a [[broodling seal]], for example, requires a [[figurine of a cute baby seal]] and five [[seal-blubber candle]]s. The figurine and candles are consumed in the summoning.

A player can only summon five Infernal Seals each day (ten with a [[Claw of the Infernal Seal]]), regardless of whether the player wins or loses.

Every day, a total of 5 Greater Seal figurines can be found each day. These free noncoms are superlikely with 70+6X% rejection, where X is equal to the number of figurines found that day. Additionally, only 1 sleek seal figurine (minimum level 12) can be found each day, but as a regular noncombat.

As fighting seals [[Free fights|does not take adventures]], a player can use these combats to gain more effective turns of beneficial effects such as [[Brother Corsican's Blessing]].

Again, keep in mind you are a Seal '''Club'''ber: only [[:Category:Clubs|club]] weapons you hold are effective against Infernal Seals.  All items, spells, combat familiars, and other weapons (except [[:Category:Swords|swords]] if you have [[Iron Palms]]) have their damage reduced to 1. Clubs held by a [[Disembodied Hand]] are also not effective. Thankfully, combat skills that trigger weapon damage such as [[Shieldbutt]] do normal damage if you have a club equipped, but the damage from the shield will be ineffective. Presently [[Yellow ray strategy|Yellow Rays]] and other instakills will successfully take down Seals, as can the unending march of powercreep in the sheer number of [[Passive Damage|passive and stinging damage sources]] available.

==Lesser Seals==
These seals require one or more [[seal-blubber candle]]s and a figurine that can be purchased from either [[The Smacketeria]] or [[The Hermitage]]. Note that while the sealbone and blood are guaranteed drops, the ingot and flipper only have a 35% chance to drop.

==Crafting==
The above seal drops can be used for some item crafting. The weapons all have backlash damage, taken at the end of each combat. Because  the damage is applied after combat end, if you get beaten up by it you will still count as having won the combat. Also this beaten up lasts 4 turns for the same reason.

==Other Seal-relevant items==
*The [[crystalline seal eye]] accessory increases item drops from infernal seals by +200%.
*The [[Legendary Regalia of the Seal Crusher]] outfit increases item drops from infernal seals by +100%.

==Notes==
*Summoned Infernal Seals are [[Free fights]], meaning that effects that regenerate HP/MP per adventure will not activate, but effects that trigger after combat like [[The Real Deal]] or [[Purple Tongue]] will activate.
*Because fighting an Infernal Seal doesn't cost an adventure, if you lose all your HP to an Infernal seal, you will get 4 turns of Beaten Up instead of the usual 3.
*You can summon seals while Falling-down drunk.
*If an Infernal Seal is transformed ([[CLEESH]]ed, for example) the resulting monster encounter will consume an adventure.
*Unlike other figurines, the [[depleted uranium seal figurine]] is not consumed on use, though the candle is.
*None of these monsters can be [[Copying|copied]].
