-An {{questmon|abbot|monk|guardian}} in ''[[NetHack]]''. The abbot is a [[strong]] and [[herbivorous]] [[neutral]] [[Human (monster attribute)|human]] that can be seen via [[infravision]].
 Abbots have a 'claw' attack, a kick attack that can [[stun]] targets, and the ability to cast one clerical [[monster spell]] during each of their turns. Their melee attacks are more powerful than other quest guardians, reflecting the Monk's affinity towards martial arts.
 Like all monsters that have stun attacks, [[eating]] an abbot [[corpse]] or [[tin]] always causes [[hallucination]].{{refsrc|src/eat.c|1107|version=NetHack 3.6.7}}
 ==Generation==

 Eight abbots are generated within the dwelling of the [[Grand Master]] on the [[Monk quest]] home level.
 Abbots may be [[generated with]] the following:{{refsrc|src/makemon.c|274|nethack=3.6.7}} a {{frac|2}} chance of either a [[dagger]] ({{frac|2|3}} chance) or a [[knife]] ({{frac|3}} chance), a {{frac|4|5}} chance of either a [[leather jacket]] ({{frac|2|3}} chance) or a [[leather cloak]] ({{frac|3}} chance), a {{frac|2|3}} chance of either [[low boots]] ({{frac|2|3}} chance) or [[high boots]] ({{frac|3}} chance), and a {{frac|2|3}} chance of a [[potion of healing]].
 ==Strategy==
-Abbots may be among the most threatening of quest guardians to face when they are hostile, though at that point there is a chance that the game is [[unwinnable]] for a Monk [[hero]] anyway&mdash;doppelgangers that shift into abbot form can potentially give heroes of other roles significant trouble.

	The title ''abbé'' (French; Ital. ''abate''), as commonly used in the Catholic Church on the European continent, is the equivalent of the English "Father" (parallel etymology), being loosely applied to all who have received the tonsure. This use of the title is said to have originated in the right conceded to the king of France, by the concordat between Pope Leo X and Francis I (1516), to appoint commendatory abbots (''abbés commendataires'') to most of the abbeys in France; though the class did not survive the French, the courtesy title remained as a convenient general term applicable to any clergyman.
