As the name implies, the entire level (except for the stair room and treasure room) is a temple dedicated to Moloch; the altar is marked and attended by four priests of Moloch because it is, in fact, four stacked altars. This does not mean one cannot convert the top altar!

There are two spiked pits in the stair room. The room on the far right contains nine piles of treasure, each composed of a chest, a wax candle, a random amount of gold, and three random objects. The niches on the sides of the temple each contain a statue gargoyle, and the main area contains a bone devil, a babau, a barbed devil, a vrock, a horned devil, a hezrou, and 21 random Z. The X mark indicates a burned message reading "Those Not of Moloch, Begone!"

Be cautious when attacking the priests of Moloch, as Moloch responds with divine lightning bolts, potentially blinding you even if you have reflection/lightning resistance.
