A '''changed''', {{orange|h}}, is a type of [[monster]] that appears in [[dNetHack]], [[notdNetHack]] and [[notnotdNetHack]]. The "changed" in general are a type of [[Humanoid (monster class)|humanoid]] monster that came about as a result of humanoids being corrupted by exposure to the Far Realms of Insanity and fused together, with the changed monster being the most "basic" form of entity that resulted from this process: these monsters only exist in the future inhabited by the [[Anachrononaut]] (and [[Android]]), and they are simultaneously [[Human (monster attribute)|human]], [[Elf (monster attribute)|elven]], [[Drow (monster attribute)|drow]], [[Dwarf (monster attribute)|dwarven]], [[Gnome (monster attribute)|gnomish]], [[Orc (monster attribute)|orcish]], and [[demihuman]].

Changed are [[amphibious]], [[mindless]] and [[unbreathing]], making them capable of [[swimming]], and also have [[infravision]], [[lifesense]], second-level [[low-light vision]], and the ability to [[see invisible]] monsters. They have 10 points of [[AC]] and 2 points of [[DR]], and can reach [[Monster level|level 30]]. Seeing the changed can lower the [[hero]]'s [[sanity]] and raise their [[insight]] (and Anachrononauts start the game with the veil lifted). Changed can follow a hero to other levels if they are close enough, and [[tamed]] changed may turn [[traitor]].

Changed have a weapon attack along with an [[acidic]] [[touch attack]] that uses any offhand weapon the monster may have. They possess [[poison resistance]], [[acid resistance]] and [[sleep resistance]], resist blunt damage, possess a vulnerability to [[iron]] due to being elven, and gain [[magic resistance]] due to being orcish upon reaching level 15. Changed require isolation suits to exist in the world’s atmosphere: once a changed is dropped to below roughly 50% of their [[HP]], they lose their normal [[HP regeneration]] and begin draining 1 HP each turn while releasing small groups of [[poison cloud]]s as they move—this represents a breach in their isolation suit causing them to boil away into poisonous mist.

Changed are [[poisonous]] to consume due to their nature, and will burst into several poison clouds upon death, whether from being killed directly or the eventual HP loss described above. They can be [[Ward (dNetHack)|warded]] by a [[User:Chris/dNetHack/Elder Sign|Elder Sign]] at any level of reinforcement.

==Generation==
Changed are not randomly generated in the main dungeon or Gehennom. They are not a valid genocide target.

==Encyclopedia entry==
{{encyclopedia|
Those Changed by the Far Realms of Insanity now find the
Prime Material plane inimical to their existence, and must
wear protective suits formed from the flesh of those still
native to our dying universe. Should the suit be breached,
the Changed within will slowly boil away in a cloud of
noxious fumes.
