 '''Wormdogs''' are slithy worm-class insight monsters that become visible at 10 insight and above and are minions to some of the more Cthulhu mythos adjacent deities. They will randomly mock characters and have a conflict aura effect which they themselves are immune to, such that only they won’t be attacked by their own allies. Monsters that don’t normally leave behind corpses are immune to this effect.

 dNetHack also draws inspiration from the Cthulhu mythos, loosely associating the Good Neigbor with the outer god Nyarlathotep, god of a thousand forms. In the Cthulhu mythos Nyarlathotep is an eldritch deity that acts as a messanger and harbinger to the outer gods spreading their influence over the world. The Good Neighbor is implied to either be one of the forms taken on by it or an avatar, in order to propagate the witch cult present on the level. The Good Neighbor has a unique death message which also reflects this idea.

		+	The '''Good Neighbor''' is a monster that appears in [[dNetHack]], [[notdNetHack]] and [[notnotdNetHack]].
		+
		+	Her symbol is a black {{black\|&}}. She is a [[humanoid]] and is an [[overlord]] to her kind. She will be generated hostile, can [[see invisible]], can pick up and use weapons, [[fly]] and is not a valid polymorph form.
		+
		+	The good neighbor has four reach, 4d8 [[armor shredding]] attacks and casts magical spells.
		+	The armor shredding attacks will disenchant an armor piece by one point if it hits. This destroys the target piece outright once it falls below -5 unless the armor in question is an artifact, in which case it avoids being shredded but not the disenchantment. The target piece of armor is chosen at random for every attack.
		+
		+	==Generation==
		+	Only one good neighbor generates in the game and will be placed randomly somewhere on the sixth level of the lost cities in the [[Neutral Quest (dNetHack)\|neutral quest]] upon map generation.
		+
		+	==Strategy==
		+	Engaging with The Good Neighbor in melee is dangerous due to her shredding reach attack which can quikly disenchant and destroy your armor. Although she only has a speed of 16 and AC of -3, her reach means that kiting in melee without getting hit by armor shredding infeasible without the use of a [[preservative engine]]. She can cast high level spells inlcuding [[touch of death]], [[curse items]] and [[life drain]] as well. Her [[acid rain]] spell may also destroy any scrolls, potions and books being carried in open inventory. A player can also find themselves repeatedly getting confused and unable to cast spells when hit by a [[doubt bolt]].
		+
		+	The notable lack of resistances besides player-style [[magic resistance]] allows for the use of elemental attack spells as a viable way to kill her without entering her range or putting her to sleep with the help of the wand or spell, though any magical attack will still be subject to her MR score of 66. Using a boulder fort will trivialize her reach attack and block line of sight preventing constant spell spam cursing items and destroying scrolls and potions. This may also help diminish the barrage of [[open wounds]] cast by the abundance of witches and their familiars present on the level. She can only be warded off by [[Ward(dNetHack)\|heptagrams]] but may still hit the player before fleeing while approaching due to her reach.
		+
		+	==Madness==
		+	On death the Good neighbour will permanently afflict the player with the Masks of Nyarlathotep [[sanity\|madness]], causing monsters killed to sometimes reveal their true form, turning into a random [[U\|unknown abomination]], becoming far more likely at low sanity. Summons are exempt from this effect.
		+
		+	==Origin==
		+	The good neighbor is loosely based on Bensozia, a mythological figure traced back to the Gauls and associated with witchcraft. Jacques de Martin, the 18th century french benedictine monk, discusses Bensozia as being a major moon deity described as "malevolent, sometimes benevolent". In his account he also mentions the names Herodias, Nocticula and Diana as being similarly associated with this figures' worship. The name's origin supposedly comes from the phonetical similarity to a phrase closely associated with her worship, loosely "bon(a) socia/sosed", or good neighbor. This probably does not reflect what the phrase would have sounded like in the original gaulish but rather the later indo-european pronounciation.
		+
		+	In issue #76 of Dragon, Bensozia, the Queen of Hell, is described as a human appearing devil who is coldly polite and haughty in nature. She is consort to Asmodeus and mother to Glasya, Princess of Hell. The story goes that Levistus killed Bensozia and was in turn imprisoned in a block of ice as punishment.
