An amulet of nullify magic is a type of amulet that appears in dNetHack, notdNetHack and notnotdNetHack.

Generation

Dwarven Anachrononauts start the game with an uncursed amulet of nullify magic.

Amulets of nullify magic make up 9200 (4.5%) of all amulets randomly generated on the ground, in general shops or as death drops. Jewelers shops can also stock amulets of nullify magic.

An amulet of nullify magic has a 14 chance of being placed randomly on the Troubadour quest goal level during level creation.

The tame knight that accompanies a Drow Healer at the start of the game is always generated with an amulet of nullify magic.

Description

A hero that puts on an amulet of nullify magic gains the "nullify magic" (or "nullmagic") property: this grants them magic resistance, but also suppresses their spellcasting abilities until the amulet is removed.

A hero eating the amulet has a 15 chance of successfully absorbing its magic and gaining "nullify magic" as an intrinsic for 1000 turns, granting magic resistance but preventing spellcasting as above for that duration.

Monsters will put on this amulet to gain magic resistance if they do not have any ability to cast spells that would be impacted by the amulet.
