The Oracle awaits the player in his inner sanctum.

The Oracle is a character from Strife. He (or it) is a blue-skinned man who stands on a pillar in a brown robe and a green mask. He uses The Order's minions as guards. A Spectre can be seen floating in a hole at the ceiling of the Oracle's room. The Oracle himself is very weak and harmless, literally having only 1 Hit Point, but when "killed", the Spectre will attack the player.


Spoiler Warning: Plot details follow.

The Oracle is also a source of information. After the Programmer is destroyed in the Order's castle, Macil wants the player to find four other sigil pieces, and tells to ask the Oracle about this. The Oracle sends the player to kill the Bishop. After that, he claims that Macil is one of the enemy. It is possible to choose at this point whether to kill Macil and listen to the Oracle, or to go with Macil and be convinced that the Oracle is the enemy. The path taken here affects the "good" ending of Strife.

If Macil is killed first, the worst of the two good endings is presented. It is not possible to travel to the Processing Factory that turns humans to Acolytes, as the Oracle will send the player to the Loremaster. After killing the Loremaster, it is necessary to kill the Oracle to get the last Sigil piece.

If the Oracle is killed first, then the best of the two endings is presented, as Macil sends the player to a factory where a cure for the virus in the story is found, and Blackbird's true appearance will be revealed.
