Revision as of 15:00, 17 July 2021 by Follower of Light (talk | contribs)
The Dread dagger is a recurring weapon in the series. It deals additional damage to members of the Bug family and has a chance to inflict Paralysis in all appearances. Though very similar to the Poison moth knife, the dread dagger is not always the upgraded version of that weapon.
