Breathless

From NetHackWiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Being breathless allows a players to travel underwater, making them amphibious.[1]. Furthermore, breathless players cannot choke on food, but will instead "vomit voluminously" and lose 1000 nutrition.[2] Breathlessness protects from sleeping gas traps[3][4][5] and stinking clouds.[6][7] It will only prevent the choking effect of an amulet of strangulation; a player can still die from having their neck crushed.

Breathlessness is only granted by eating or wearing an amulet of magical breathing, but possessed naturally by many monsters.
