ITEM LIST
==============================================================================
This document presents you a complete list of all the items you can find in
the game, arranged by type. These include equipment, expendable items,
rarities, relics, and collectibles for decorating Juste's Room in the Castle
Treasury.
Items are listed as they are in the game menu. The order in which defensive
items are arranged goes like this: first come all the items that increase
Defense only, listed in order of increasing protection, then come those that
increase Defense as well as other stats. That's why you'll find some less
defensive items listed after the most powerful armors.
Note that I've not described each item in detail. I did this for two simple
reasons: first, the in-game explanation tells about all there is to say, and
second, each effect can be easily verified by the player.
For every item, you'll find info about where it can be found or bought, or
what monsters may drop it. This doesn't apply to healing items, which can be
found in many places, or bought from the Merchant.

Konami Computer Entertainment for another great Castlevania game. They
couldn't resist the temptation to milk out the Symphony of the Night success,
but the final result is quite remarkable, albeit less addictive than Circle of
the Moon.
Zach Keene for another excellent Castlevania FAQ. It helped me found out some
secrets, and its Mechanics section simply deserves to be read.
Demajen for his good Heretic's Grave Web site. It provided detailed maps and
monster lists to help me clear up mistakes.
You, for reading my FAQ. I hope you enjoyed it, but most of all, I hope it was
useful to you. Thank you!
