The Oracle is a Hardmode NPC vendor that randomly spawns in Marble Caves while the Ancient Augury quest is active. She sells various items in exchange for Olympium Tokens, a special currency.

Unlike most other NPCs, she is invincible and cannot be damaged by enemies or the player. When enemies are nearby, she will defend herself by creating an aura around herself that inflicts the Greek Fire debuff onto enemies, which causes them to rapidly lose health while they are within her aura, similar to the Dryad's attack.

Blessing

Clicking on the Oracle's "Bless" dialogue option gives the player the Heresy buff for 5 minutes, which increases the chance of Arachmatons, Lernean Hydras, Medusas, Stymphalian Bats, and Trochmatons being blessed from 1/15 (6.67%) to 1/5 (20%). Being blessed permanently increases the enemy's maximum health by 50%, makes them drop 3-5 Olympium Tokens upon death, and gives them one of the following effects:

    When first talked to:

    • "I've been expecting you, traveler. My visions spoke of a time when a hero would need some guidance. I can offer you powerful armaments in exchange for Olympium, the currency of the Gods. To find some, seek out and defeat enemies that have been blessed by the Gods themselves. I can give you my blessing if you would like to find more of these creatures, but you risk incurring the wrath of the Gods."

    After completing the quest Ancient Augury:

    • "Ah, you've returned safe and sound! Wonderful. I'll exchange these tokens with you for some powerful weapons and equipment. And take this sacred parchment. If you need me, I will be by your side. Safe journey, hero."

    After selecting Bless:

    • "You wish for a challenge? I may stop you not, as it benefits us both. I do hope you're prepared!"
    • "I shall consult the gods about their boons - these monsters will become relentless, I hope you are aware."
    • "You want me to call them what?! Such foul battle language, yet I will deliver the message. The Gods won't be happy about this!"
    • "The boons cause slain foes to drop more tokens, yes, but do remember that the foes become stronger, too!"
    • "Do come back alive! I would enjoy hearing tales of your victories. Bring many tokens as well!"
