'''Unique Demons''' in [[SpliceHack]] are more numerous than their incarnations in [[NetHack]]. They also have lower AC, and are much more dangerous.

== Bribery ==
[[Bribing]] a lawful [[demon prince]] is similar to NetHack, but with a few key differences. The demon will cycle through the following checks in order.

1. If the player has a [[playing card deck]] in their inventory, the demon will offer to play a [[Playing_card_deck|game of chance]] with the player for dominion of their soul. If the player refuses, the demon will get angry.

2. If the player has a powerful object in their inventory, the demon lord may demand it in exchange for safe passage. Objects demanded include any [[artifact]] not necessary for [[ascension]] except [[Sting]] and [[Orcrist]], a [[bag of holding]], or a [[wand of wishing]].

3. If the player does not have a powerful object or refuses to hand it over, the demon will demand a monetary bribe of between 2000 to 3000 [[zorkmids]], with an additional 1000 demanded if the player is of a different [[alignment]] to the demon. If the demon is in possession of the amulet or the hero is deaf, a sum of money greater than the amount in the inventory of the player is demanded.

== Dark Speech ==
All hostile unique demons are capable of using '''dark speech'''. Each turn, there is a {{frac|1|18}} chance that the demon utters something in the dark speech. If the player does not have sonic resistance and is not [[deaf]], one of several effects will occur.
