In NetHack, all monsters are classified in six distinct sizes: Tiny --> Small --> Medium --> Large --> Huge --> Gigantic[1][2]. Only monsters medium or smaller can wear cloaks, and only exactly medium monsters can wear shirts or armor. Size also restricts which monsters can move diagonally through a crack. Some types of weapon distinguish between "small" monsters (tiny - medium) and "large" ones (large - gigantic).
