Souls

Souls are Hardmode crafting materials that are dropped by enemies. Unlike other normal enemy drops, Souls are not affected at all by gravity, and this means that the soul remains floating in midair at the point where the enemy was killed. For large enemies and Bosses, the enemy's head is usually where the Soul will drop, regardless of where the final strike actually happened.

All enemies can drop Soul of Night or Soul of Light, depending on the biome for which they were killed in.
