The talismans are secretive items added to Strife in the 2014 re-release as Strife: Veteran Edition. There exist three talismans: red, green, and blue. Collecting them all grants the player super strength, similar to the berserk powerup in Doom and normally only available with the pumpup b cheat code in Strife. It also unlocks the Berserk Reborn achievement.
Graphically, the red and blue talismans are identical to the chalice return spots in Capture the Chalice mode. These graphics exist in every version of the STRIFE1.WAD IWAD file, but were completely unused. Their sprite names, beginning with FLG, suggest that they may have originally been intended for a CTF related purpose. They are similar in appearance to Toltec depictions of humans, in particular the famous Atlantean figures.

As a nod to Doom 64, the pickup messages are the same as those of the Demon Key artifacts from that game.
- Red Talisman: "You have a feeling that it wasn't to be touched..."
- Green Talisman: "Whatever it is, it doesn't belong in this world..."
- Blue Talisman: "It must do something..."
When collecting the last of them, "You have super strength!" is appended to the pickup message.
Locations[edit]
Spoiler Warning: Plot details follow.
