An item is any carriable object to be found in the dungeon. All items can be placed in your inventory, and they appear there under a number of categories, listed below.
If the weight of the objects you are carrying becomes too much then you become encumbered. Items can be blessed, uncursed or cursed, which affects their properties. Some have charges, and can be charged, most can be destroyed, some are generated randomly, and some are unique.
Many objects can pile up on top of each other on one square, but only the symbol of the top one is shown.
