OOE Pneuma

Pneuma is a unique Wind-based Slash Glyph and is Greek for "Spirit". When Shanoa uses it, a gale of wind is released downward, streaking across the floor for a certain distance.

Game specific information[]

Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia[]

The Pneuma glyph range and power increases when the user has the Wind Ring equipped. When the two Pneuma Glyphs are used at the same time, a much larger blast of wind is fired, a Double Pneuma (unofficial name, called "Gale" by Shanoa).

Pneuma also has a Glyph Union that can be used with two Pneumas, different from the larger gust. Instead, mass amounts of wind is fired up into the sky, forming what appears to be a "wind cage" around Shanoa that she calls "Ventus" (Latin for "wind"), which rotates around her, while harming enemies in range.

Performing a Glyph Union with any weapon performs the Tellus, which causes a large wind-driven slash to appear in front of her.

The Pneuma glyph can be found on a latter visit to Tymeo Mountains (after obtaining at least the Ordinary Rock), at the top of a tall vertical room while exploring the lower caverns path, in the middle of a strong gust of wind which will push Shanoa off the ledge. To obtain it, equip and activate Magnes to be attracted to the metal sphere in the center of the ledge; while still holding the button, move slightly toward the left and let go; if done correctly, Shanoa will be launched toward the right, but not enough to fall off the ledge; immediately, press and hold UP on the directional pad to start absorbing the glyph, process which should have completed before Shanoa falls off the left side of the ledge. Alternatively, the Hanged Man Ring can be equipped, as Shanoa can quickly recover from the blowing wind.

Castlevania Judgment[]

Shanoa can also use the normal Pneuma glyph in Castlevania Judgment when holding the directional pad and the special button while attacking. She sometimes yells "Tear them apart!" or "Wind!" during this move.

Her Super Finisher "Glyph of Gales" consists of the Union Pneuma "wind cage" from Order of Ecclesia.

Castlevania: Harmony of Despair[]

Pneuma is a random item obtained from bosses' chests from the last three castles. Shanoa can equip two of these without wasting MP and can perform the Gale attack with two of them simultaneously. When the attack hits the enemy, it hits twice, thus it is Shanoa's best weapon if she has two of them because they can hit four times. Add to that, by back dashing, she can easily spam the attack as much as Alucard or Soma Cruz with Valmanways.
