Deicide is one of only two skills inShadows of Valentia that is attached to ablack magic spell, in this caseNosferatu. It is also one of two skills in the game that is attached to any magic spell, the other beingAnti-Terrors, which is attached to the spellSeraphim.
- Deicide's attachment to Nosferatu is presumably in reference to aglitch in the originalGaiden; Nosferatu is able to slayDuma. In the original game this behavior was clearly unintended, as doing this causes minor graphical glitches with the closing scenes and credits.
