Cerberus: has no hands. is an animal. is carnivorous. is not a valid polymorphable form. is male. is normally generated hostile. is nasty. can be seen through infravision. appears only in Gehennom. may turn against you when tame. cannot be tamed.

In dNetHack, Cerberus is a unique hell hound that appears in the Windowless Tower.

Generation

Cerberus will be generated just inside the main door of the courtyard on the first floor of the Tower.

Strategy

He's not particularly difficult, but can pose a serious threat to early game characters attempting to clear the Tower without fire resistance or a sufficient health pool. When eaten, his corpse grants fire resistance for quite a long time - but not permanently.
