Common traits
Apelike creatures favor clawing and biting in combat alongside other attacks. As pets, these monsters regard bananas as treats.
Generation
Apelike creatures are the second quest monster for Healers, making up 6⁄175 of the monsters randomly generated in the Healer quest.
All apelike monsters leave corpses which are safe to eat, subject to freshness.
Strategy
Apelike creatures at based speed can move as fast as an unhasted, unburdened character if not faster, and many of them can hit decently hard for the point they are encountered at.
History
The apelike creatures first appear in NetHack 3.0.0, which introduces the ape and carnivorous ape. From this version to NetHack 3.1.0, the monster class uses the uppercase A glyph, A, and is designated internally with the macro S_APE - NetHack 3.1.0 moves apelike creatures to their current glyph, merging the yeti into the monster class and repurposing its macro.
Variants
Variants such as SLASH'EM and its descendants move the zruty to the apelike creature monster class, repurposing its glyph for another monster class (usually the zouthern animals).
