Infernal Seals

There are some vague or non-exact figures and information on this page. Some spading is required. Do Combat Frequency modifiers affect the chance of encountering an infernal seal non-combat?

Seal Clubbers 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 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 candles or imbued seal-blubber candles outside of combat. Summoning a broodling seal, for example, requires a figurine of a cute baby seal and five seal-blubber candles. 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.

A player can only find five of the Greater Seal figurines each day as well.

As fighting seals 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 Clubber: only club weapons you hold are effective against Infernal Seals. All items, spells, combat familiars, and other weapons (except 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.

Notes

• Even though the combat with an Infernal seal does not take a turn, they are still counted when determining the familiar percentage for a run. For example, if you are doing a 100% run and the only combat for which you don't use the same familiar with is an Infernal seal combat, then you will not get a 100% run upon freeing the king.
• You can summon seals while Falling-down drunk.
• Effects that change monster level or trigger after combat like The Real Deal or Purple Tongue trigger in Infernal Seal combats. However, things that trigger after an adventure is spent don't trigger like most mp and hp restoring effects, because Infernal Seals combats don't use adventures.
• If you lose all your HP to an Infernal seal you will get 4 turns of Beaten Up instead of the usual 3.
• Finding an Infernal seal figurine does not cost an adventure.
• If an Infernal Seal is transformed (CLEESHed, 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.
