Essences are a new type of consumable introduced in the Epiphany mod, essentially being the Tarnished characters' equivalent to Soul Stones. Most Essences are unlocked by beating Boss Rush and Hush as that Essence's corresponding Tarnished character, though one of them is unlocked in an alternate way.

Notes
- Essences are considered runes by the game's standards, meaning that they can be copied by Clear Rune.
