The Tears of a Saint recover Dracula's health completely and temporarily increase his maximum health. It is a stone urn in the shape of a mask that is filled with blood.
Usage
Dracula can transport from 3 to 5 Tears with him, thanks to secret upgrades. Whenever Dracula uses one, he stops moving, drinks from the urn, and smashes it on the ground. As with all Relics, enemies can still attack while Dracula is performing the "draw" animation, but once the drinking animation starts enemies will stop attacking until it has completed.
Tears will always restore Dracula to at least 100% health, and can double-fill the bar to 200%: this functions much like overcharging the magic meters, and the excess health will slowly drain over time.
