Crossroads

This trophy is earned by using 50 scrolls of ancient forbidden unspeakable evil as combat items.

Trophy Maker

You're entitled to the "Crossroads" Trophy, for selling so many bits of your soul that you've barely got any left.

Notes

• Your soul does not reset at ascension, so the scrolls do not need to be used in a single run.
• Using scrolls to summon demons in the Summoning Chamber does not count towards the total.
• When the trophy was viewed from the trophy case at first, or your profile, you used to get a broken image. This is because Jick forgot to make a picture for this particular trophy.
• The image used on the trophy is Internet Explorer's broken image icon, a reference to the above fact.
• The actual graphic put on the trophy was borrowed from the pre-existing avatar of Karl Dark (#174966) after Jick requested permission to reuse the image.^[1]

References

• The name, and image file are references to songs by the Delta Blues artist Robert Johnson. The referenced songs are "Crossroad Blues" and "Dead Shrimp Blues".
• The name also references the legend that Robert Johnson sold his soul to the devil at the crossroads at midnight for his mastery of the guitar.
