The Deadman's skull is an item in Deadman: Annihilation that players can interact with to purchase sigils and quest lamps from the skull shop. Duplicate sigils can be sold back to the skull shop by using them on the deadman's skull while in your inventory. Archaic emblems can also be exchanged for points by using them on the skull.

If lost, it can be reclaimed from the Emblem Trader at the Grand Exchange.

The "Unlocks" right-click option opens an interface showing all sigils available, showing which have or have not been purchased. Toggleable sigils (such as the Sigil of Remote Storage) can be turned on and off by clicking them.

The "Swap" right-click option allows for swapping between different spellbooks and prayer books. A spellbook can only be swapped to if the prerequisites have been fulfilled (e.g. completion of Lunar Diplomacy to use the lunar spellbook). To swap to the Ruinous Powers prayer book, a player must buy the Ruinous Powers tome from the skull shop.

Swapping prayers can be done anywhere and while in combat. However, swapping spellbooks can only be done within a safezone and out of combat.

The "Breach Check" right-click option displays the time to the next breach.
