Generation
Erinyes become extinct after three have been generated, as befits their mythos.
Being both lawful and major demons, they are not eligible for random generation either inside or outside Gehennom, nor are they an eligible polymorph form for you or monsters. They are only generated in certain specific circumstances:
- They 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.
- The random & in Asmodeus' Lair can include erinyes.
- One 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).
- They are one of the minions Moloch may send after you if you (attempt to) convert an altar of his outside Gehennom.
- They can appear in graveyards in Gehennom.
- One is guaranteed to appear in Moloch's Sanctum, if they're not extinct by then.
Variants
