- This article is about the in-game shopkeeper. For the DevTeam member, see Izchak Miller.
Izchak is a special shopkeeper who runs the lighting store in Mine Town. He has a slightly different conversational repertoire from other shopkeepers, but is otherwise identical for game purposes.
History
One of the founding members of the NetHack DevTeam was Izchak Miller. Professor Miller passed away on the 1st of April 1994 at the age of 58, from complications due to cancer. The DevTeam put Izchak the shopkeeper into the game as a tribute, inspired partly by his work on the shopkeeper code. The character on the navigation imagemap on the NetHack site is also named after him.
Etiquette
The community considers it extremely poor form to attack or steal from this particular shopkeeper.
