Being breathless allows players to travel underwater, making them amphibious.[1]. Furthermore, breathless players cannot choke on food, but will instead "vomit voluminously" and lose 1000 nutrition.[2] Breathlessness protects from sleeping gas traps[3][4][5] and stinking clouds.[6][7] It does not protect from a worn amulet of strangulation unless the player is also mindless; the messages change but the player still dies from lack of blood flow.

Breathlessness is only granted by eating or wearing an amulet of magical breathing, but is possessed naturally by many monsters.
