Memoirs of Priest Uthlob.

0'. Bought the 1st book and a morningstar.

150'. Sold the loot from the first few depths for the 3rd spellbook (OoD!) and an enchanted morningstar, so as not to rely on finding a good early weapon. Turned out to be a good move.

500'. In principle have OoD, but nothing interesting so far.

1100'. Still no good weapon and have holes in main resists. Would have got really depressed if not for Thalkettoth (+3 Spd) and later some boots (+4 Spd). So only mildly depressed.

1300'. Dethanc and Forasgil. Not great for a priest, but better than nothing.

1500'. Just got Orcrist and Barukkheled and am using both: one is blessed, the other gives regeneration (but with lower Wis). Still with a resistance hole in either fire or lightning (and poison, of course).

1800'. Not great on Stats - found plenty of !Str, but very few !Wis and !Con. Resistance holes still there. To add insult to injury just found Mormegil...

2050'. Found Caspanion and Balli Stonehand, which together give all standard resists, RConf and regeneration and plenty of Wis and Con. Physical damage is absolutely rubbish, but can happily OoD things at the cost of turncount. So basically polymorphed myself into a happy Uthlob. :)

2350'. Monster city with Ungoliant and some lesser uniques. Had to kill off a couple to stop them from constantly returning and used up my only scroll of Banishment on a grand master mystic. At least that should teach him... In return got good Con and Wis (now maxed out when counting gear) and Thranduil, which let me put on a +5Wis amulet instead of Esp.

4950'. Nothing interesting happened between 2500' and now: got spellbooks 5-8, collected 2 rings of speed and eventually upgraded them to +10s, and slowly upgraded the old boots of speed. Had to pass up the Arkenstone, which was in a hydra pit, but, apart from that, didn't see anything yummy. Have 3 Banishments and 3 Mass Banishments.

5000'. Oh, also had 21 Restore Mana and 17 Speed potions before M, so now have become a bit of an alcoholic...

Just to make it interesting... :)

This poor Uthlob was using a ring of escaping all the way to 4350', when the first ring of speed finally showed up. The first boots with speed weren't early either, Dal-i-thalion at 2900'. The final fight was also very long and bloody: no scrolls and no speed items left.

Ooops. Seem to have wiped my previous Uthlob by accident. :(

Congrats! That's some impressive tenacity. I'm sure you've got the win. I, for one, am not going to spend the next three days trying to beat it. :D

Thanks, Ingwe.
Dwarves are known for their great persistence and this Uthlob was no exception... :)

PS: I really don't understand how you manage to raise your stats that quickly with persistent levels.
