- I believed salamanders to be as newts or lizards, so at first I thought not that salamanders could have human heads and torsos. Real salamanders are amphibians, as newts are. But monst.c#line2895 says M1_HUMANOID|M1_SLITHY. I jumped into Freenode #nethack and confirmed the existence of humanoid salamanders.
