#VOX MACHINA SYMBOL CRACKED#
Someone on Tumblr proposed that the symbol cracked because Sylas' taunting of "Your gods can't help you now" made Pike briefly believe him and doubt herself in a moment of desperation and fear. I was remembering the symbol cracking in the original specifically because it was symbolic of her straying from the Everlight's path. (OP here) This was what I was referring to.This may also be an adaptation of an element of the Underdark arc, when Pike's holy symbol cracks and her powers weaken after she violates the Everlight's teachings and principles.

Delilah damaged Pike's holy symbol during the fight.Odds are this is a way to include Pike in an adventure she was mostly absent for without having to entirely rewrite sections to account for her magic powers being available. In Pike's case, as a divine caster, she needs a (not broken) holy symbol of her deity. If it runs off typical D&D/Pathfinder style rules, magic users need a focus for their magic.
