A '''vorpal jabberwock''', {{monsym|vorpal jabberwock}}, is a type of [[monster]] that appears in [[EvilHack]] and [[Hack'EM]]. The vorpal jabberwock is the strongest type of [[Jabberwock (monster class)|jabberwock]] in both variants, and like other jabberwocks it is a [[strong]] [[carnivorous]] [[animal]] that can be seen via [[infravision]] and is capable of [[flight]]. Vorpal jabberwocks will pick up food and other items that they come across.

A vorpal jabberwock has two strong bite attacks and two strong [[beheading]] claw attacks. Vorpal jabberwocks are instantly killed when hit by [[Vorpal Blade]].

==Generation==
Randomly generated vorpal jabberwocks are always created hostile. They are not a valid target for [[genocide]].

One of the monsters generated near the tower containing the [[magic portal]] to [[Wizard's Tower (EvilHack)|the Wizard's Tower]] at level creation has a {{frac|2}} chance of being a vorpal jabberwock.

A vorpal jabberwock is generated in [[Purgatory]] at level creation.

The [[Wizard of Yendor]] may create a clone of himself in the guise of a vorpal jabberwock via the [[Double Trouble]] [[monster spell]].

Monsters that get a [[wish]] may wish for a [[figurine]] of a vorpal jabberwock.
