Angelic being

English

 • 한국어

The angelic beings are a class of NetHack monster represented by the overall glyph A.

• A couatl
• A Aleax
• A Angel
• A ki-rin
• A Archon

All angelic beings ignore Elbereth and sanctuary.

SLASH'EM

In SLASH'EM, five new Angelic beings were added:

• A movanic deva
• A monadic deva
• A astral deva
• A Planetar
• A Solar

The devas follow the same rules as Angelic beings capable of using weapons. Planetars and Solars are basically much stronger versions of Archons, and are also guaranteed shields of reflection and either Demonbane or Sunsword if it does not exist. Additionally, all of the higher angelic beings in SLASH'EM inherently resist death magic, even without a source of magic resistance or reflection.

He answered and said unto them, he that soweth the good seed is the Son of man; the field is the world, and the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the weeds are the children of the wicked one; the enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels. As therefore the weeds are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world. [...] So shall it be at the end of the world; the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just, and shall cast them into the furnace of fire; there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

[ The Gospel According to Matthew, 13:37-42, 49-50 ]
