Necromancers
Even tho i dislike the reduction of book numbers a lot,
i must admit that on 2nd look the new books seem to make sense overall.
I just toyed around character generation and i thought that high-elves should never be necromancers or blackguards. Just my imagination?Blondes are more fun!Comment

Tibarius is, as I recall, very big on shopping. Presumably the intent is to start with max gold (the "useful kit" deducts from your starting gold) so they can buy exactly what they want to buy instead of what the game thinks they should have.
Considering how weak mages are in the early game, I could absolutely see someone deciding to e.g. get an attack wand instead of spellbooks.Comment

Feminism? In *my* Angband? It's more likely than you think!
I wonder if adding some professions as well might be add a bit of flavour. The key would be not to assign them by gender or use gendered terminology, e.g. 'dancer' is gender-neutral but 'dancing girl' is problematic. There's no reason the father can't be a weaver or a tailor (note that 'seamstress' is again problematic), and no reason a mother can't be a warrior or a priest. There are all sorts of other potentially interesting professions you might add as well, e.g.,
- Apothecary
- Healer
- Bowyer
- Fletcher
- Innkeeper
- Archaeologist
- Teacher
- Candlemaker
- Tanner
- Brewer
- Miller
- Baker
- Potter
- Chancellor
- Sergeant at arms
Alternatively, you could go Pythonesque and just say, "Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries."Comment
