The scroll of genocide, cost 300, is one of the most powerful scrolls in the game. It allows you to permanently wipe out (or, if cursed, send in) almost any species or class of monster of monsters in the game.
→ Genocide strategy helps you choose which monsters to genocide.
A blessed scroll of genocide allows you to wipe out an entire class of monsters, like all "L"; an uncursed scroll of genocide allows you to wipe out only one species of monster, like all "mind flayers"; and a cursed scroll of genocide sends in some of the specified monsters, reverse genocide. For this reason, it is best to know the b/u/c status of these scrolls before reading.
Reading a scroll of genocide while confused is dangerous! If the scroll is uncursed, you genocide yourself. (If it is blessed then it is safe; if it is cursed then you send in monsters of your own role.)
Common monsters to genocide include all types of liches, mind flayers, sea monsters, rust monsters, and the like.
Genociding anything breaks the genocideless conduct, although reverse-genociding does not.
