Toxicity Star

The Toxicity Star is one of many Weapons from Misery of Magic. It is the signature weapon of Jaye Tera.

Effect
When cast, the Toxicity Star's ball remains stationary. Each ball then begins to periodically emit small star bullets towards the target, shrinking as it does so until it disappears entirely.

Obtaining
The Toxicity Star is one of two weapons of which two copies can be obtained at once, the other being the Mirror Wave

The first copy can be found in a yellow box at the end of the Cliffside sub-area in the Backwoods. It is not permanent and can be given to any playable character.

The second copy is Jaye's second permanent weapon. It is obtained by recruiting Jaye into your party. To do this, one prerequisite is to get the first copy of the Toxicity Star. The other is to enter the room in the Water Tunnel sub-area where Jaye has written on the walls. If both of those conditions have been met, Jaye will join you if you talk to him in Eastern Top Level. It is possible for Jaye to hold both copies of the weapon simultaneously, although doing so conveys no advantage.

Trivia

 * The Toxicity Star has a very similar effect to the Energy Pulse spell from Merlin's Revenge 3. Several weapons in Misery of Magic are based on those from the Merlin's Revenge trilogy, inlcuding the Orb, Nuclear Blaze and Upsilon Carinae.
