1) Purifying
This is performed every 5th level. The bishop must remove all armor and rings and only equip his staff (or use feet) and Holy Bolt spell. He must trek levels 1-16. He is allowed one town trip per 4 levels, using only the stairs up. He may go back up level one stairs, level 5 stairs, level 9 stairs, and level 13 stairs ONE TIME each.
He gets as far as he can, killing ALL undead and especially the bosses. He must do it on the highest difficulty possible. If he succeeds in purifying himself, he is no longer required to do this event anymore. If you die, you may use any weapons/spells to retrieve your gear.
