Trivia

• Godhead is another term for Godhood or overall divine nature.
• Godhead bears resemblance to the Eye of Providence, Eye of God, or The Eye That Sees All, a common Christian religious symbol. The three corners of the triangle may represent each part of the Holy Trinity.
• The three corners of the triangle may also be a reference to The Mind, The Body, and The Soul items, as the colors of the corners match the colors of the items, that are also unlocked by The Lost.
• This item appears in the Afterbirth † release date trailer.
