When #chatted to, quest guardians will give various quest-appropriate responses, which are listed on the appropriate role's Quest page. Pets will not attack quest guardians unless confused or under conflict.

The following information pertains to an upcoming version (NetHack 3.7). If this version is now released, please verify that it is still accurate, then update the page to incorporate this information.
