The Iron Ball of Liberation is the convict quest artifact in the convict patch and UnNetHack. It is the prize for completing the Convict quest. It is neutral for wishing purposes. Its base item type is a heavy iron ball, but it weighs only 300; this still makes it the heaviest quest artifact.
When carried, the Ball confers warning, stealth, magic resistance, and automatic searching. When invoked, it allows its user to phase through walls, but at the cost of chaining itself to the user.
A scroll of punishment may increase the Ball's weight. If the player is a convict, touching the Ball will erodeproof it and set its weight back to 300; this is an addition in UnNetHack.
