Vortex pit
This is a very rare pit type. I count 11 chaos vortexes in the fourth row. The rest are fire, energy, water, plasma, and nexus.

A small anecdote related to this screenshot:

When it was posted, the Zceband gallery did not exist yet, so it was attributed to EyAngband. I looked at it, thought to myself "does Ey have vortex pits?" then saw that it was a Klackon mindcrafter and realized it was the wrong variant.

But then I thought "vortex pits aren't that bad an idea", so I went and added them to the game - so whenever your character gets killed by an Ey vortex pit, you can thank this screenshot :)

- 18/xxx stats
- Four HP/SP rows
- No @
- * in lite slot

How deep/rare did you make them in Ey? I haven't seen one yet let alone been killed by it.

Another hint would be the circular room.

They're about stat-gain depth, and they're quite rare.

Not friggin' rare enough! I always have to run whenever I see one (5 or six times so far, Clevel 42)
