A '''prayer-warded wrapping''' is a type of [[cloak]] that appears in [[dNetHack]], [[notdNetHack]] and [[notnotdNetHack]]. It is a special type of [[mummy wrapping]], and has a [[Object materials (dNetHack)|default material]] of [[cloth]] unless otherwise specified during generation.

==Generation==
Prayer-warded wrappings are not randomly generated normally, though they can be [[wish]]ed for or found in [[bones]].

[[Neferet the Green]] is [[always generated with]] a blessed +5 [[golden]] prayer-warded wrapping. [[Pharaoh]]s and [[priest mummies]] are always generated with prayer-warded wrappings.

==Description==
While [[worn]], a prayer-warded wrapping covers the entire body and suppresses [[invisibility]] similar to a normal mummy wrapping, and it grants 0 base [[AC]], 0 base [[DR]], [[Magic cancellation (3.4.3)|MC1]], and [[curse resistance]]. Wearing or [[taking off]] a prayer-warded wrapping takes 1 turn. The wrapping's curse resistance grants the wearer complete protection from the following effects:

* [[Mummy rot]] and any type of [[mummy curse]]
* The passive curse exhalation used by [[Baalphegor]]
* The [[curse items]] [[dNetHack monster spells|monster spell]]
* Curses from [[sitting]] on a [[throne]]

A hero or monster being [[polymorph]]ed into a larger form while wearing a prayer-warded wrapping will destroy it as with a normal mummy wrapping, rather than [[eroding]] it and forcing it off their body like other cloak items.

[[Monster]]s will put on a prayer-warded wrapping, and in order of scores for monster usage priority, the monsters that will favor a prayer-warded wrapping most are: [[mummies]]; monsters that are not [[weldproof]] ''and'' hate unholy creatures; and non-weldproof monsters that are not unholy-haters, which are tied with [[tame]] pets that are invisible and allied with a hero that cannot [[see invisible]]. Monsters that are invisible and not tame will avoid seeking out a prayer warded wrapping.
