A ring of wishes is a type of ring that appears in dNetHack and notdNetHack. It is a chargeable ring that has a default material of firmament, and appears as a black ring when unidentified - the ring displays an amount of stars corresponding to the number of charges remaining if the ring is not fully identified.
Generation
Rings of wishes are not generated randomly.
A ring of wishes is always generated within a chest inside the Castle.
For an elven Madperson, The Stranger will always generate with an artifact ring of wishes named the Star-Emperor's Ring when entering the floor of the Madman quest that contains their quest artifact.
Description
While worn, invoking a ring a wishes that is not cursed will allow the character to make a wish, using up a charge - if the ring is cursed or the character has negative luck, it will silently fail without using up a charge. Additionally, if a character wearing the ring is killed, life saving will occur and use up a charge. A ring of wishes without any charges has no effect.
A ring of wishes cannot be cancelled, but its charges can be lost to effects that drain enchantment, such as the drain life spell or the engulf attack of a lethe elemental.
