The Nyoi-Bo is a spear type weapon in Castlevania: Curse of Darkness. It is a mythical pole that can extend or shrink at will. Extremely rare, few have actually seen it.
Characteristics[]
While at first glance the Nyoi-Bo may seem to be no different than any other spear type weapon when carried on Hector's back, being true to its description that states it is "a mythical pole that can extend or shrink at will", it will extend to very large proportions when attacking, giving it a remarkably long attack range.
Its crafting is also very peculiar, as it requires 5 Bamboo Swords and 5 Bamboo Lances, each of which that requires one Wild Memory to create; as well as the rare Orichalcum material.

Trivia[]
- This weapon is a reference to the iconic magical staff of the Monkey King, Sun Wukong, which was fully called the Ruyi Jingu Bang/Nyoi Kinko Bou (如意金箍棒; lit. "Compliant Gold-Rimmed Pole"). The Japanese shortened name was popularized by the version of the weapon that appeared in the Dragon Ball series, dubbed as the "Power Pole" in most English dubs.
