Glass

Properties

Glass, as would be expected, shatters under strong forces. Items made of glass can shatter when thrown at a wall, or when hit with force bolt or a wand of striking. Monsters made of glass do not shatter.

Examples

• Potions are all made of glass
• Crystal armor suits are made of glass and can shatter like any other object.
• Some gems are not valuable, but simply worthless (but unbreakable) glass.
• A wand can have the description "a glass wand".
• Monsters include glass golems and glass piercers.

Miscellaneous information

• Hazardous potions and lit potions of oil make nifty grenades, causing the hit enemy to fall under the effects of that potion.
• Throwing a potion of healing at a pet could be useful.
• Nymphs often carry looking glasses which behave like glass, shattering under a strong blow (and confer a luck penalty when broken).
• Sometimes it is mistakenly referred to as crystal.
