User:Chris/dNetHack/Monsters/Monster Spell Lists

dNethack incorporates L's Monster Spells Patch. Rather than replace the vanilla spells and spell list, dnethack uses these new spells to establish multiple alternate spell lists to add variety to monster casters.

Mage Spell Lists

Each Mage-type monster casts from one of four spell lists. The Wizard of Yendor chooses a new random list each time he resurrects.

Lists are ordered in according to spell level, from lowest to highest. If a spell appears on a list more than once, higher level monsters will choose it more often.

List 1: Wizard

Flesh to Stone Death Touch (Clone Wizard) Summon Monsters Aggravate Monsters Curse Items Destroy Armor Drain Strength Invisibility Stun Haste Self Cure Self Psi Bolt

List 2: Negative Energy Specialist

Drain Life Drain Energy (Clone Wizard) Weaken You Confusion Drain Life Destroy Weapon Drain Strength Darkness Stunning Web Cure Self Psi Bolt

List 3: Positive Energy Specialist

List 4

Clerical Spell Lists

Priests are divided up into constructive and destructive casters (constructives favor heal self, destructives favor inflict wounds). Their spell list is divided into blocks. The order that they recieve spells from each block is radomized based on their monster ID.
