−	~~#REDIRECT~~ [[Spirits (dNetHack)#Eurynome, the ~~Lonely~~ Dancer]]	+	'''Eurynome, the Lonely Dancer''' is a [[Spirits (dNetHack)\|spirit]] that appears in [[dNetHack]], [[notdNetHack]] and [[notnotdNetHack]].
		+
		+	==Ritual, seal and taboo==
		+	Eurynome's seal must be drawn next to a [[pool]] of water or a [[moat]]. A [[hero]] binding Eurynome must [[chat]] to the seal while facing the water square across from the seal.
		+
		+	To remain bound to Eurynome, the hero must not skip a turn using the [[rest]] [[command]] via {{kbd\|.}}—[[Clockwork automaton (starting race)\|clockwork automata]] heroes are permitted to repair themselves using the rest command, but pressing the key any amount of times beyond that will be counted against them. The limit of rest command uses for a hero before they unbind Eurynome is 5, with the amount of presses being incremented by 1 every ten global turns until it reaches the maximum of 5 again.
		+
		+	==Mark==
		+	A hero that has Eurynome bound will have their shadow become that of a dancing nymph. This dancing shadow can be seen from a distance if they are standing in a lit square, and can still be seen up close if they are standing in a dark square that is illuminated by a [[light source]].
		+
		+	==Benefits==
		+	While bound, Eurynome grants [[free action]] and [[water walking]], along with [[skill]] in unarmed combat, i.e. [[bare hands]] and [[martial arts]]. While the hero is not wielding a [[weapon]] in their main hand, she also increases their [[base attack bonus]] to +1 [[to-hit]] per [[experience level]].
		+
		+	Eurynome's active powers are as follows:
		+
		+	* '''Vengeance''': Damage all adjacent creatures that have damaged you with their attacks, dealing 5 dice of damage.
		+	* '''Shape the Wind''': Creates a number of temporary [[pet]]s that vanish after five turns. This cannot be used while a [[dimensional lock]] is active.
		+
		+	Eurynome's passive powers are as follows:
		+
		+	* '''Retaliation''': Monsters that attack the hero may provoke two bare-handed counterattacks, using your bare-handed combat modifiers, regardless of the hero's wielded weapons. The odds of this happening is {{frac\|5}} (20%), with a maximum of one counterattack per round.
		+	* '''Water Dancer''': The hero gains increased movement [[speed]] while on water, with a {{frac\|4\|3}} speed boost (+33%) compared to moving over the floor while unhasted, a {{frac\|23\|20}} speed boost (+15%) compared to moving over the floor with intrinsic fast speed, and a {{frac\|43\|20}} speed boost (+7.5%) compared to moving over the floor with extrinsic very fast speed.
		+	*'''Form Dancer''': The hero's unarmed attacks use randomly-sized [[exploding dice]], with their die sizes increased up to (2d5) + (2''X''), where ''X'' is always 0 if the hero lacks the martial arts skill, 3 for [[Half-dragon (starting race)\|half-dragons]], 2 for heroes that also have [[Echidna (spirit)\|Echidna]] and are not wearing [[gloves]], and 1 for heroes with the martial arts skill. Wearing the [[Great Claws of Urdlen]] increases this multiplier by 2. This means a non-martial artist will have die sizes of d2-d10, and a normal martial artist will have die sizes of d4-d12, re-rolling the size on every attack made; if the size rolled is lower than the hero's normal die size (i.e. without Eurynome bound), their normal die size will be used instead. This ability also has a {{frac\|2}} chance of adding slashing damage to the hero's unarmed attacks, a separate {{frac\|2}} chance of adding piercing damage, and a {{frac\|3}} chance of removing blunt damage if slashing or piercing damage was added.

		+	If Eurynome is killed after being summoned, she can be encountered again in the [[Void]], a branch accessed by opening the high [[altar]] of [[Ilsensine the Fallen]] as an Illithanachronounbinder using the [[invoke]] effect of [[The Elder Cerebral Fluid]]. Eurynome is generated along with many other spirits of the near void on the first floor of the branch, and is generated with the "whispers" template, which makes her [[nonliving]].

		+	In the beginning, Eurynome,
		+	The Goddess of All Things,
		+	Rose naked from Chaos.
		+
		+	She found nothing upon
		+	Which to rest her feet, and thus,
		+	She divided the sea from the sky.
		+
		+	She danced lonely upon
		+	The waves of the sea.
		+
		+	She danced towards the South, and
		+	The Wind set in motion behind her
		+	Seemed something new and strange
		+	With which to begin a work of creation.
		+
		+	Wheeling about, she caught hold of
		+	This North wind, rubbed it between
		+	Her hands, and behold!
		+	The great serpent Ophion.
		+
		+	[...]
		+
		+	Eurynome and Ophion made their home upon
		+	Mount Olympus where he vexed her by
		+	Claiming to be the author of the Universe.
		+
		+	Forthwith, she bruised his head with her heel,
		+	Kicked out his teeth, and banished him to the
		+	Dark caves below the Earth
		+
		+	[...]
		+
		+	She took joy in her creation, but soon found
		+	Herself alone desiering the face, voice,
		+	Ear and warmth of another of her own.
		+
		+	Eurynome stood up and once again
		+	Began to dance alone upon the waves.
