-In minetown I accidentally threw a dagger at a co-aligned Preistess, it seems.  She threw a potion of acid at me and called the guards, but - to my absolute amazement - didn't kill me in the couple turns it took me to escape the temple.  What is known about angry priests, whether doing so affects luck, and placating them and/or the timing out of their anger?

 : If you #chat with the priest while is tending the altar, is peaceful, can move, is not fleeing, is not sleeping, and nobody converted or destroyed the temple's altar (even in bones and even if converted back), and if the priest is not of your alignment or you have strayed, and you have no visible gold, then you get the above message.

 You can buy protection from the high priest of moloch, if you pacify him first. -[[User:Tjr|Tjr]] 14:54, 25 May 2009 (UTC)

		+	1) Chat with no gold, get 2 zm for an ale
		+	2) Donate the 2 zm
		+	3) "I thank thee for your contribution" - exercises wisdom

	::The main reason I had posted that was because of the absolutely absurd thing that happened, namely the statue of the aligned priest becoming angry. However I just figured out what that was; since I was using the same game where I experimented with teleporting a shopkeeper with a tame quantum mechanic, by an amazing coincidence he attacked a shopkeeper as the same time I carried the statue out of the temple. Since that still angers the shopkeeper but I couldn't see him, I got the message "It gets angry" and I had assumed it was some bizarre bug in how priests were tracked in Nethack, causing the statue to attempt to become angry (or something similar).
