A '''nobleman''' or '''noblewoman''' is a [[player monster]] added in the [[Noble]] role patch, corresponding to the default version of the [[noble]] [[role]] (as opposed to the elf, female and male drow, and dwarf versions in [[dNetHack]]).

Like other player monsters, noblemen and noblewomen are never randomly generated (except in variants which enable random generation of player monsters) and are thus rarely seen.
No noblemen or noblewomen are normally found outside the [[Astral Plane]], where they may appears among the hostile player monsters generated there<ref>{{function|mplayer.c|create_mplayers}}</ref>.

Reading a cursed [[scroll of genocide]] as a noble while [[confused]] will summon a number of noblemen or noblewomen, although they won't have their usual equipment. Using [[undead turning]] on the corpse or [[stone to flesh]] on the statue of a dead noble left on a [[bones level]] will revive the corpse or statue as a player monster. Nobleman and noblewoman corpses may be found in the [[Valley of the Dead]]{{refsrc|gehennom.des|65}}, and a statue of a noble may appear on [[Medusa's Island]]{{refsrc|sp_lev.c|1004|comment= the code is very cryptic but fortunately has comments}}.

Most nobles encountered in the main dungeon will turn out to be [[doppelganger]]s, which may temporarily assume the form of a nobleman or noblewoman.

A nobleman or noblewoman on the Astral Plane will carry a [[rapier]]. The [[weapon]]'s [[enchantment]] will be random between +4 and +8, and it will be either [[erodeproof]] or [[greased]] (but not both) with 33.3% probability each. There is a 50% chance that the weapon will be made into an [[artifact]] of the same type, if possible.

Like other player monsters on the Astral Plane, nobles will also be equipped with [[d notation|1d3]] random [[offensive item]]s, 1d3 random [[defensive item]]s, 1d3 random [[miscellaneous item]]s, some [[gold]], and a [[cheap plastic imitation of the Amulet of Yendor]]. The noble's ascension kit will include [[chain mail]] and an [[opera cloak]], as well as other randomly selected pieces of equipment.
