I believe that summoning ghosts from altars where the priest where killed also don't respect extinction. (I killed 200+ ghosts and they wheren't extinct) --Soyweiser

Also I wonder if the kops respect extinction. Could you steal from a shop and get kops over and over again? --Soyweiser

I looked at the code and it looks like you can make kops extinct. I edited the main article to reflect this. Addps4cat 17:46, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

Can Rodney be made extinct? I mean if I kill him 121 times will he be still returning?

He'll keep returning. Tjr 17:18, June 15, 2010 (UTC)

Are there any actions at all that sometimes respect extinction? The main article has a heading for it, but nothing under the heading. --Uncreative Username 20:03, 22 April 2009 (UTC)


Why is the beehive thing under both "respects" and "doesn't respect"? I don't know which one is right. Aeronflux 05:07, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

I believe that this means that existing beehives will continue to generate monsters indefinitely but new hives will not be generated if Killer Bees are extinct (as per Beehive). DemonDoll 14:13, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

Monsters specific to aligned dungeon branches

Some monsters can only be generated in aligned dungeon branches or levels.

  • What are these monsters?
  • Chaotic levels are quite deep, and lawful/neutral quite shallow. Can it happen certain monsters cannot be randomly generated at all due to these restrictions?
