Illurien of the Myriad Glimpses is a unique monster in dNetHack. She guards an artifact spellbook in the shrouded dispensary, a side-branch of the Neutral Quest. Her unique engulfing attack inflicts amnesia and rusts worn armor. It does double damage against targets with blood ("A mist of blood is torn from your skin and swept into the cloud!").

Harassment

After Illurien dies for the first time, she will cause you trouble for the rest of the game. Every 250–1250 turns, Illurien will cast aggravate monster on you (25% chance), resurrect or levelport to your current level (25% chance), or do nothing (50% chance). Once you reach the Astral Plane, Illurien will cease her harassment.

Encyclopedia entry

A strange woman composed of tears and raindrops, Illurien of the Myriad Glimpses is a collector of information and a keeper of secrets. She appears as a dancing array of countless swirling droplets. This storm of stolen moments surrounds and creates a slender, but extremely tall, feminine form clad in gray robes.

She has no facial features other than her vivid blue eyes.
