In Christian tradition, Longinus is the name of the Roman soldier who pierced Jesus Christ in his side with a lance while he was on the Cross. Some of Jesus's blood fell upon his eyes and he was healed. Upon this miracle Longinus believed in Jesus. Longinus' legend grew over the years to the point that he was said to have converted to Christianity after the Crucifixion, and he is traditionally venerated as a saint in the Catholic Church and several other Christian communions. The figure is unnamed in Gospels, though he is said to have spoken "In truth this man was son of God" as Jesus finally died.
"A Roman soldier who used his spear to pierce the body of Jesus Christ as he was on the cross. According to some legends, the blood of Christ cured Longinus of his blindness. Afterwards, he reconciled his ways and became canonized. Obtaining the Holy Lance of Longinus grants one power to become the ruler of the world, but losing it means your doom."
