For the hero rank, see Barbarian#Rank titles.

The chieftain, @, is a Barbarian quest guardian. They are not to be confused with the male barbarian player monster, which is referred to as a chieftain if generated at the appropriate level for that rank title. Like the quest leader Pelias and other barbarians, they have intrinsic poison resistance.

Encyclopedia entry

These strange creatures live mostly on the surface of the earth, gathering together in societies of various forms, but occasionally a stray will descend into the depths and commit mayhem among the dungeon residents who, naturally, often resent the intrusion of such beasts. They are capable of using weapons and magic, and it is even rumored that the Wizard of Yendor is a member of this species.
