Reference | monst.c#line746 |
A rothe is one of the deadlier early-game monsters. They are very fast hitters and often appear in packs, somewhat similar to soldier ants.
Strategy
- Fortunately, rothes are larger and move slower than ants, making them far more susceptible to wands.
- Rothes respect Elbereth.
- Rothes only provide 100 nutrition, but appear in groups, so they make a good source of food.
- They also frequently leave corpses, which makes them good sacrifice fodder.
Encyclopedia entry
The rothe (pronounced roth-AY) is a musk ox-like creature with an aversion to light. It prefers to live underground near lichen and moss.
