The uvuudaum is a dangerous monster added in dNetHack, as part of the U "unknown abomination" monster class.
Until the player becomes a demigod (by killing the Wizard of Yendor), uvuudaums will peacefully float around the level, meditating. Even if provoked from their meditation, they will soon return to being peaceful. However, they will cease their meditation once the player is on the ascension run, and will be hostile.
One should always wear a helmet when fighting an uvuudaum, for fear of their headspike attack otherwise being able to instakill the player.
Uvuudaums have intrinsic life saving, though it can activate no more than once every 34 turns. They also heal 25 HP per turn and have 10 intrinsic damage-reduction
Uvuudaums cast the following spells with a base damage of 19d6:
- Psi bolt: Direct damage (capped at 50)
- Spacewarp: Direct damage (capped at 100)
- Stun: Causes stunning
- Paralyze: Causes paralysis
- Time stop: Allows hastened recovery (50–125 HP)
- Temporal duplicate: Creates a clone with timed life
- Nail to the sky: Applies cursed levitation
- Prismatic spray: Multiple large elemental explosions (6d6 each)
Uvuudaums receive +20 to hit, and deal an extra 3d7 damage to curse-sensitive enemies (primarily Angels) and an extra 4d9 damage to holy-hating enemies (primarily demons and undead).
Strange creatures with long, claw-tipped tentacles in place
of heads, Uvuudaums hail from a far realm beyond the known
planes. It is said that they are the lords of those realms,
although evidence for this is thin at best. As with all
supposed facts about that place, that claim is more likely
a gross anthropomorphism, if not an outright falsehood.
The merest glimpse of their form drives men mad, and they
are capable of crushing a man's head with a single flick
of their headspikes. Even if the victim escapes this fate,
their long spikes run with strange venoms.
