Aberration
The aberration is a monster grouping that is used in dNetHack and xNetHack.
dNetHack
In dNetHack, the following monsters are considered aberrations:
- all U (which represents unknown abominations)
- almost all primordials
- aliens
- Great Old Ones
xNetHack
In xNetHack, aberrations are a monster class represented by the U glyph (U). It is composed of the following monsters:
This class "replaces" the umber hulk monster class from vanilla, which has the titular monster as its only member. Aberrations are defined by the macro S_ABERRATION
in the game's code; xNetHack defines monsters in include/monsters.h, as opposed to the "standard" src/monst.c for NetHack and other variants.
