Throne
A throne, \, is a special dungeon feature that occurs both in throne rooms and in special areas such as the Castle.
Looting a throne while confused generates a throne room monster and deposits a random amount of your gold in its inventory, unless there is a chest on the level, in which case the gold is put in that.
Sitting on a throne can have many effects good and bad, including:
- Receiving a wish
- Losing all your gold
- Summoning some monsters
- Receiving enlightenment
- Being able to identify one item
Sitting on a throne
This section is based on thrn-343.txt.
There is a 2/3 chance that nothing happens.
- "You feel somehow out of place..."
- "You feel very comfortable here." (polymorphed into royal monster)
Otherwise, there is an equal 1/13 chance of one of the following:
You lose d4+2 points from a random attribute, and d10 hit points.
|
You gain 1 point to a random attribute.
|
If shock resistant, you lose d6 hit points.
Otherwise, you lose d30 hit points.
In both cases, your constitution is abused. Items in inventory are NOT at risk of explosion. |
If you are within 5 hit points of maximum, your max HP is increased by 4; hit points are then restored to maximum whether increased or not. Also cures all blindness, all sickness, and wounded legs.
|
If you have any gold in your main inventory, it's all taken away.
Otherwise, no effect.
|
If your luck is d5 or more below zero, your luck is increased by one.
Otherwise, you get to make a wish. |
d10 throneroom monsters appear around you.
|
You get to genocide one species, as for an uncursed scroll of genocide.
|
If your luck is positive, you are blinded for 250 to 349 (more) turns; otherwise, your inventory is randomly cursed (as for a "malignant aura").
|
If your luck is non-negative and you don't already have intrinsic see invisible, you acquire that intrinsic.
Otherwise, if the level can be magic-mapped, it is.
Or, if the level cannot be mapped, you are confused for d30 (more) turns.
|
If you have negative luck, you wake all monsters on the level.
Otherwise, you are teleported within the level.
|
You can identify items from your inventory: # items: 1 2 3 4 all chance: 1/5 1/5 1/5 1/5 1/5
|
You are confused for 15+d7 (more) turns.
|
Whether anything happened or not, if you are still sitting on the throne (haven't teleported away), there is a 1/3 chance that the throne will then disappear.
- "The throne vanishes in a puff of logic."
