"Disappointment floods your mind. You were sure to succeed Stelmane, but Lord Enver Gortash has stolen your support. All that charming and cajoling in the parlous of the Upper City, Wasted." | "Disappointment floods your mind. You were sure to succeed Stelmane, but Lord Enver Gortash has stolen your support.

Shadowheart is generally denied the mirror's benefits. As the game's narrator says: "With so much of your memory already surrendered to the mirror, you have nothing to offer. A sorry outcome." As such, she is not given the chance to be cursed nor booned. | Shadowheart is generally denied the mirror's benefits.

However, if Shadowheart becomes a Dark Justiciar, she can receive a permanent +2 bonus to any [[Ability Scores|Ability]] of her choosing without sacrificing an Ability. Possibly, one has to do strictly everything [[Shar]] has asked of her (killing the Nightsong, killing Viconia and killing her parents). | However, if Shadowheart becomes a Dark Justiciar, she can receive a permanent +2 bonus to any [[Ability Scores|Ability]] of her choosing without sacrificing an Ability.

Becoming | Becoming a Dark Justiciar gives her an advantage on the {{Ability Check|Religion}} to offer a prayer to the mirror. Passing it does not seem to do anything, as is not required to get the +2 bonus to Ability Scores. | ||

Only one character needs to pass the initial [[Arcana]] or [[Religion]] checks to identity the mirror, but each party member must pass their individual [[Religion]] prayer checks in order to receive the permanent ability buff. Items that boost Religion or [[Intelligence]], which can be passed to each party member for each attempt, will skew the odds in your favor. These include: | |||
* {{RarityItem|Headband of intellect}} | |||
* {{RarityItem|Mage's Friend}} | |||
* {{RarityItem|Shapeshifter's Boon Ring}} (when disguised or shapeshifted) | |||
General spell and class-specific buffs to checks like [[Guidance]] and [[Bardic Inspiration]] additionally shine here. | |||
