| Reference | monst.c#line2849 |
A newt is one of the lower-level NetHack monsters, usually appearing on the first few floors.
Eating a newt corpse sometimes gives the message "You feel a mild buzz." When this happens, your energy or maximum energy is increased.
Newts are featured prominently in Dudley's dungeon.
Encyclopedia entry
(kinds of) small animal, like a lizard, which spends most of
its time in the water.
[ Oxford's Student's Dictionary of Current English ]
"Fillet of a fenny snake,
In the cauldron boil and bake;
Eye of newt and toe of frog,
Wool of bat and tongue of dog,
Adder's fork and blind-worm's sting,
Lizard's leg and howlet's wing,
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble."
[ Macbeth, by William Shakespeare ]
