Revision as of 19:15, 29 October 2008
Enlightenment is a brief, one-time-only indication of a number of normally hidden character attributes, such as Luck, alignment record, and resistances to elemental attacks such as fire. When you get an enlightenment, "you feel self-knowledgeable" and these attributes are displayed; when you dismiss the window, "The feeling subsides" and the list cannot be displayed a second time, even with the ^P command, but if one records their session with ttyrec, then it can be replayed.
Enlightenment can be triggered in these ways:
- quaffing a potion of enlightenment
- zapping a wand of enlightenment
- invoking The Eyes of the Overworld
- drinking from a fountain (one in 30 chance)
- in wizard or explore mode, pressing control-X
- answering yes to "Do you want to see your attributes?" when the game ends; in this case, the messages are in the past tense
