Piped from the sages of VoR's Hallucinatory Bestiary, we bring you the Morality Monsters.
Smiting things in Nethack is generally good, but whacking Morality Monsters can get the injudicious adventurer into precarious trouble. Unfortunately the whacking can be hard to avoid, as Morality Monsters can be hard to eliminate without whacking, sometimes increase on contact with cold iron, and can get in the way.

Ouch! These confounded things prick away at the conscience, increasing encumbrance.

Moral Hazard
A nuisance that assembles in large numbers and is obstructive to the hitherto non-slimy.
In economics, moral hazard occurs when someone increases their exposure to risk when insured, especially when a person takes more risks because someone else bears the cost of those risks. A moral hazard may occur where the actions of one party may change to the detriment of another after a financial transaction has taken place.
