 Captains are the most dangerous Yendorian military fighters for a hero to face, especially with the damage they can inflict if their long sword or silver saber is enchanted. This makes it unwise to let yourself be surrounded by them and other [[soldier]]s and [[Sergeant (monster)|sergeants]]: drawing groups of military fighters into a corridor can keep them from overwhelming you, and they may impair or kill each other trying to zap [[attack wand]]s at you; while the [[wand of death]] is rare enough that [[reflection]] or [[magic resistance]] are not strictly required, said wands can still be a danger to the hero. Additionally, captains are especially dangerous if they appear as part of a swarm of summoned nasties, since they do not respect [[Elbereth]] and can hit quite hard.
-Captains possess the same movement [[speed]] of 10 as the rest of the Yendor military and have a low [[Magic resistance (monster)|MR score]] of 15, so while [[poisoned]] weapons and various forms of magic remain effective against them, they may occasionally resist such effects. Captains that generate with a bugle or else pick one up can apply it if any of their fellow fighters nearby are scared or immobilized, which can wake up entire barracks and ruin [[stealth]]-based approaches while scaring [[pet]]s&mdash;this may also awaken other nearby monsters as well if the combat itself does not do so. As always, be mindful of leaving [[chickatrice]] and [[cockatrice]] [[corpse]]s around captains with gloves (especially in the Castle or within [[Gehennom]]), and have [[lizard]] corpses or other cures for [[stoning]] ready to go in case.

 Leftover equipment from captains make a good source of [[polyfodder]], as well as possible replacements for any eroded or lower-[[enchantment]] armor that you or a pet may have&mdash;a captain's long sword can make for a good offhand weapon if the hero can perform [[two weapon combat]], and can be used to [[dip]] for [[Excalibur]] if they have not yet obtained the artifact; a silver saber is similarly among the best [[silver]] weapons available for a hero, and can provide a great offhand weapon for two weapon combat as well. Strong [[humanoid]] pets will also appreciate the armor as well as a good-quality melee weapon.

The captain is a [[chaotic]]-aligned [[Human (monster attribute)|human]] fighter that is the highest ranked fighter in the [[Yendorian army]], which informally refers to a group of [[Human or elf|human]] [[mercenaries]] that are directly employed by the [[Wizard of Yendor]].

		+	A captain will be [[generated with]] either a [[silver saber]] or a [[long sword]] as their primary weapon with roughly equal probability.{{refsrc\|src/makemon.c\|205\|nethack=3.6.7}} Default generation for mercenaries means that a captain also has a {{frac\|4}} chance of being given a dagger as a primary weapon and a {{frac\|7}} chance of being given a spear as a secondary weapon, and any captain that has a primary weapon other than a dagger ''and'' no secondary weapon then has a {{frac\|4}} chance of being given a knife as their secondary weapon.{{refsrc\|src/makemon.c\|209-L221\|nethack=3.6.7}}

		+
		+	From NetHack 3.0.0 to [[NetHack 3.3.0]], captains and other Yendorian army monsters move at a much slower speed of 4—in [[NetHack 3.3.1]], their speed is boosted to 10.
		+
		+	From [[NetHack 3.0.4]] to [[NetHack 3.0.6]], captains and other Yendorian army members use the {{green\|@}} glyph—captains are given their current glyph color in [[NetHack 3.0.7]].
		+
		+	From NetHack 3.2.0 to NetHack 3.3.1, captains and other Yendorian army monsters can generate with [[elven cloak]]s—the leather cloak is introduced in [[NetHack 3.4.0]] to resolve this incongruity, as stated in that version's bugfix list.

		+	The soldiers of Yendor are well-trained in the art of war, many trained by the Wizard himself. Some say the soldiers are explorers who were unfortunate enough to be captured, and put under the Wizard's spell. Those who have survived encounters with soldiers say they travel together in platoons, and are fierce fighters. Because of the load of their combat gear, however, one can usually run away from them, and doing so is considered a wise thing.
