In SLASH'EM, robes in general are fairly different from their vanilla cousins. Firstly, they are no longer cloaks, but instead fill the body armor slot. Lighter even than leather armor, they do not interfere with spellcasting (as all other armors do in SLASH'EM, even dragon scale mail) or a monk's melee abilities. Secondly, there are now magic robes, and all robes have a randomized appearance. Lastly, no robe provides an magic cancellation.
Robe
The most basic robe is simply a piece of armor. It is the only robe that can be distinguished by price, costing 25zm instead of 50.

A robe of protection has a considerably higher base AC than other robes, but confers no special abilities. Its chief use is that it provides a decent amount of AC and does not interfere with a monk's martial arts abilities; most other characters will prefer a good mithril suit or dragon scale mail.

A robe of weakness is not a desirable item to wear. It sets your strength to 3. Its effect will cancel if combined with gauntlets of power. Like all robes in SLASH'EM, it is body armor, provides no MC, and has a randomized appearance.
Strategy
Unfortunately, it is not possible to distinguish these robes from robes of power or protection through price identification. Moreover, these robes are usually generated cursed, so trying on random base-cost 50 robes is not a good idea. In general, one should use an altar to identify cursed robes to avoid these; 3 strength is a major handicap.

Like its vanilla counterpart, a robe of power robe enhances your spellcasting ability. Its enchantment makes no difference. Spellcasting monks will find these to be valuable items.
