A ghoul mage is a monster in SLASH'EM. It is able to cast spells up to curse items, and occasionally aggravate monster, as well as doing a small amount of physical damage. Note that, unlike most other Z, it is not mindless, and can be detected via telepathy.

Strategy

These are not very dangerous, but they can be a great annoyance, mostly because they are very fond of cursing your items, since they cannot cast that many other spells. If you don't have a convenient way of uncursing or protecting your items (such as Magicbane or a spellbook of remove curse, they should be given a high priority for destruction, and may even be worth a scroll of genocide.
