The erinys, &, is a major demon in NetHack.
Generation
As erinyes are lawful demons, they are not randomly generated within the main dungeon or Gehennom, but are eligible forms for polymorph traps. They may also appear within a graveyard. Only three erinyes can ever be generated, meaning that they are usually subject to extinction due to the amount of graveyards a player can encounter.[1]
Erinyes can be gated in by the melee attacks of barbed devils and horned devils, as well as lawful demon princes, i.e. Geryon, Dispater, Baalzebub and Asmodeus. An erinys can be summoned via the summon nasties spell when cast by spellcasting monsters that are lawful (usually a titan) or in Gehennom (e.g. the Wizard of Yendor). Erinyes are also one of the minions Moloch may send after you if you convert an altar of his outside Gehennom; if they have not been rendered extinct, one is guaranteed to appear in Moloch's Sanctum.
Variants
SLASH'EM
In SLASH'EM, the card justice can summon an erinys, even if they are extinct.
