Drain life or level drain refers to one of the following:

Losing a level


Life draining / level draining in NetHack is relatively complex. The spellbook/wand, the artifact weapons, and monsters all provide apparently-similar life draining, and every source has the same effect if used on the player, but each does a different amount of damage to monsters. In addition both NetHack itself and the NetHack community use inconsistent naming, making any combination of the words "level"/"life" and "drain" interchangeable. In addition, the level drain monster attack is affected by magic cancellation.
