 Cerberus is a [[huge]], three-headed [[hell hound]]-like [[canine]] that guards the [[stair]] to [[Gehennom]] in the [[Valley of the Dead]], and must be defeated in order to gain access to the stair and enter the branch. While Cerberus is alive, leaving the Valley via [[level teleport]] or a cursed [[potion of gain level]] is not possible. Cerberus is [[strong]], [[thick-skinned]], can [[see invisible]], has [[teleport control]], and can be seen via [[infravision]]; he is also accurate, can forcibly move past monsters, and can go [[Berserk (EvilHack)|berserk]] when at low HP.
-Cerberus has three bite attacks and a [[Fire (element)|fire]] [[breath]] weapon, and possesses [[fire resistance]], [[poison resistance]], [[stoning resistance]], [[death resistance]], and a [[vulnerability]] to [[cold]]. He also possesses a special immunity to [[beheading]] attacks, such as those from [[Vorpal Blade]]: removing any one of his heads will cause him to regrow it instantly. Cerberus is also [[sleep resistant]] with one exception: a [[magic flute]] will lull the beast to sleep for a short amount of time.
