A Grey-elf, @, is a type of monster that appears in NetHack. Among the randomly generated elves, Grey-elves are only slightly stronger than Green-elves. They have a single weapon attack and possess sleep resistance, infravision and the ability to see invisible.
Eating a Grey-elf corpse or tin has a 2⁄5 chance of conferring sleep resistance.
Generation
Grey-elves can generate in small groups, and randomly-generated Grey-elves are sometimes peaceful towards chaotic characters and always peaceful towards player elves. A Grey-elf can grow up into an elf-lord.
Grey-elves are generated with elven equipment using the following odds:[1]
- They have a 1⁄2 chance of generating with either an elven mithril-coat or an elven cloak, and a 1⁄2 chance of generating with an elven leather helm; if they do not generate with the helm, they have a 1⁄4 chance of generating with elven boots.
- They have a 1⁄2 chance of generating with an elven dagger.
- They will also generate with one of the following sets of items, with an equal chance of each set:
- An elven bow and set of elven arrows, a 1⁄4 chance of an elven shield and a 2⁄3 chance of an elven short sword.
- An elven broadsword and a 1⁄2 chance of an elven shield.
- A 1⁄2 chance of an elven spear and accompanying elven shield.
Strategy
Grey-elves are the strongest among the trio of "basic" elven monsters, but this distinction makes little difference in practice - as with other elves, they can be quite troublesome in groups.
History
The Grey-elf first appears in NetHack 3.0.0.
Variants
dNetHack
In dNetHack, Grey-elves may appear among the court of an elven monarch-ruled throne room.
xNetHack
In xNetHack, Grey-elves are moved to the Quendi monster class like all other elves.
