How to learn
Found in 5th, 6th, and 7th level spellbooks.
Pentagrams can be learned from maids. When a maid picks up a cursed object, she will either uncurse it (80% chance) or discard it by banishing it to hell (20% chance). A semi-permanent ink pentagram is drawn as part of the banishment ritual.
