Rancid Egg

Rancid Eggs are Items in Hollow Knight.

Use
A collectable item recovered from the corpses of Bluggsacs. Either an already-dead Bluggsac has to be found or a living one has to be killed to make it drop a Rancid Egg. Once a Bluggsac has been killed, it remains dead, even when resting at a Bench.

Can be given to Confessor Jiji to summon the Shade that is currently in the game world.

In Steel Soul Mode, Steel Soul Jinn replaces Jiji and can be given Rancid Eggs in return for.

How to Acquire

 * 1 bought from Sly for in Dirtmouth

Trivia

 * Tuk does not allow the Knight to purchase a Rancid Egg if they have 80 or more Eggs in their inventory. Rancid Eggs from all other sources, including the one offered by Tuk with the Defender's Crest, can still be obtained, allowing for another 21 Rancid Eggs for a total of 101.
 * Despite the Eggs being considered inedible, it is implied that both Tuk and Confessor Jiji eat them.
