Lapiste (from the Latin lapis, "stone") is Shanoa's stone fist glyph. It summons large stone fists which punch forward in front of her.
Appearances[]
Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia[]
In Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia, a glyph union can be performed with two Lapiste glyphs equipped. It causes massive fists to appear from both edges of the screen, which will smash against each other and any enemies caught in between.
When used in a glyph union with a normal weapon glyph, Shanoa will cast Saturnus, an attack where she'll swing a giant stone hammer over her head, which crumbles apart after hitting the ground.
Castlevania Judgment[]
Shanoa's Union Rapisto Guard Crush move in Castlevania Judgment is the same as her Union Lapiste move from Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia (translated differently). Two stone arms are summoned on either side of her oppenant, which smash into each other, crushing her adversary. They can be summoned by attacking while guarding and can crush an opponent's guard.
Castlevania: Harmony of Despair[]
In Castlevania: Harmony of Despair, it's a random item obtained from bosses' chests, starting from Menace and above. It is Shanoa's strongest weapon and it's recommended to use it (especially if there are two) because, not only is it stronger, it also has a longer range than Confodere. Either continue using it or replace it with two Pneumas.
Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls[]
The Lapiste Gigas glyph in Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls materializes the entire arm of a giant stone golem, which attacks as a Sickle Glyph. Its special attack Boulder Fist summons a giant stone hand from the ground, which grasps enemies and crushes them.
