Etherealoid (Eth) is a race available in NotdNetHack, whose principal characteristics [1] are:

  • Resistant to disintegration and stoning.
  • Unchanging, unbreathing, unliving and does not have hunger; thus, cannot eat.
  • Flying and phasing.
  • Can phase in and out to "nowhere", a special level where you are alone.
  • Receives displacement at experience level 7, and gains 1 AC per experience level; however, experience level gain is gained at half the rate.
  • Cannot wear any armor, but can hold a shield.

A few questions about Eths

Most of this came from what nabru asked on Reddit[2] and was answered by demo himself, which is summarized by me:

Eths cannot wear armor, so how can they lower their AC?

  • By wearing a shield (not recommended)
  • By buying protection.
  • From other sources in the game like the Shard from Morgoth's Crown.
  • Or by just gaining XP.

What does an average ascension kit look like?
