    Nobody has ever seen It.
    It is normally found on dungeon level 24, and moves at normal speed.
    Killing this evil thief is worth about 3200.00 points for a 1st level
    character. It reflects bolt spells. It may shriek for help. It is magical,
    casting spells intelligently which drain mana, terrify, blind, confuse,
    heal-self, blink-self, teleport to, teleport away, create darkness, create
    traps, cause amnesia, summon a monster, summon hydras or summon an undead;
    25% of the time. It has an armor rating of 80 and a life rating of 847. It
    is invisible. It is cold blooded. It is not detected by telepathy. It
    resists lightning and fire. It cannot be confused, slept or teleported. It
    takes a while to see intruders, which it may notice from 250 feet. It may
    carry up to 3 exceptional objects. It can gaze to blind with damage 8d8,
    touch to terrify, gaze to lower experience (by 40d6+), and touch to steal
    items.
    It's appalling.
    Nah, I already killed It, and it only has 25% chance to cast. That thing was clearly casting every round, confusing + cursing + dealing 100+ damage and summoning. I was thinking of a scroll/chest mimic, but it only has 1_in_5. Otherwise, spell frequency is broken...

      It is quite a nuisance when appearing in the cloning pits quest. I had a hard time last it happened - multiple it's combined with a hoard of normal monsters

        Two questions:
        - is it worth IDing and carrying all egos you find to sell them once you have over 1M gold?
        - I keep getting xp from simply K-ing everything on the floor... any consequences with that or that's simply free xp?

          Congrats to elliptic for the speedy win! Kudos also to PowerWyrm (anyone who wins their very first game of poschengband is a 10th-dan angbander, IMO) and to hjklyubn for rounding out 3rd place with a stylish death.

          Comp 196 should be up Soon(tm).

            Monsters with RF2_WEIRD_MIND are not "shielded from telepathy" but are still only very rarely picked up by it. I'm thinking you must have run into one of those.
