Hydra was fun - like a spider initially, but tough. I really knew that quest was too hard, but took it on anyway, and then was careless.

The amount of stuff in this variant is just incredible, particularly for someone like me who has never really played Z-based variants.

Even with this amount of variety, PosChengband is no easy picnic. Regardless of how *very* strong my characters, there are many balancing factors that compensate.

i.e. I once thought I could roam with 400+ damage until I got instakilled by a *very* nasty blindsided Darkness breath. I didn't even what hit me...yep. That *really* hurt.

The mid-game Camelot Knights of the Round Table are a very appropriate challenge as well.
