Wings of Wrath

The Inhilicon's Wings of Wrath is an artifact that appears in Heretic and Hexen. It looks like a golden skull with bat wings. Activating Wings of Wrath allows the player to fly. In Heretic, it is a time-limited powerup. In Hexen, the effect lasts until the player exits the current hub.

Unlike other artifacts in both games, the Wings of Wrath may never be transferred between levels (except different parts of a single hub, in Hexen). If a player leaves a level in Heretic or a hub in Hexen with a Wings of Wrath artifact, the artifact will be lost. For other artifacts, the player can only transport one of each kind between levels, so if a player has two Tomes of Power, for example, one will be lost.

Strategies

 * In Hexen, a deadly fall can be escaped by activating Wings of Wrath. When the flight power kicks in, the player is suspended in midair and can fly to safety.
