- For the monster, see Wraith.
In NetHack, the wraith monster class contains monsters represented by the symbol W:
- W barrow wight
- W wraith
- W Nazgul
Wraiths are designated internally by the macro S_WRAITH.[1][2]
Common traits
All wraiths are chaotic-aligned humanoid undead monsters of human size, and move at the same speed as an unhasted player (12). They possess a drain life attack, are unbreathing, and have resistance cold, sleep and poison. Wraiths are always generated hostile, can be genocided, and will follow the player between levels.[3]
Players killed by a member of the wraith class rise as a wraith monster in any bones file created.[4]
Generation
Wraiths are the second quest enemy class for Priests and Wizards.[5]
Variants
xNetHack
In xNetHack, the ghost monster class is folded into the wraith class to reduce the number of punctuation-based glyphs.
