When the player kills a monster, sometimes it may leave one random item under its corpse it didn't already have when alive; these items are known as death drops. If a monster is neither a Kop nor a type which can't leave corpses, it has a 1/6 chance of leaving a random item on it.[1]
Death drops use the normal object generation mechanism, so the object class of the dropped item depends on which level the monster was killed in. [2] See Object#Item generation for a table of object class probabilities.
There is also a penalty against small monsters, who can only leave food rations, leashes, figurines, or items that weigh at most three. The game only tries to generate the item once; if it isn't eligible (as per above), no death drop is left.
Special Drops
Some monsters additionally always leave behind certain non-random body parts:
| Monster | Item |
|---|---|
| dragon | dragon scales (1/3 chance, 1/20 if revived) |
| unicorn | unicorn horn (1/20 chance if revived) |
| long worm | worm tooth |
| iron golem | 2d6 iron chains |
| glass golem | worthless pieces of glass |
| clay golem | 50 + 1d20 (avg. 60.5) rocks |
| stone golem | statue of a stone golem |
| wood golem | 2d4 quarterstaffs |
| leather golem | 2d4 leather armors |
| gold golem | gold |
| paper golem | 1d4 blank scrolls |
