The umber hulk is a monster in NetHack. It is one of the few monsters which can tunnel naturally through rock (along with rock moles) and unique through its confusion gaze attack. Wearing a blindfold while fighting protects against such attacks.

Apply a mirror to one and it will automatically confuse itself. Useless, but somewhat satisfactory.

Encyclopedia entry

Umber hulks are powerful subterranean predators whose
iron-like claws allow them to burrow through solid stone in
search of prey.  They are tremendously strong; muscles bulge
beneath their thick, scaly hides and their powerful arms and
legs all end in great claws.
