In NetHack, when in combat with a hostile angel or non-unique major demon, they will randomly utter maledictions, much like a quest nemesis.[1][2]
Angelic maledictions
- "Repent, and thou shalt be saved!"
- "Thou shalt pay for thine insolence!"
- "Very soon, my child, thou shalt meet thy maker."
- "The great <deity> has sent me to make you pay for your sins!"
- "The wrath of <deity> is now upon you!"
- "Thy life belongs to <deity> now!"
- "Dost thou wish to receive thy final blessing?"
- "Thou art but a godless void."
- "Thou art not worthy to seek the Amulet."
- "No one expects the Spanish Inquisition!"
Demonic maledictions
- "I first mistook thee for a statue, when I regarded thy head of stone."
- "Come here often?"
- "Doth pain excite thee? Wouldst thou prefer the whip?"
- "Thinkest thou it shall tickle as I rip out thy lungs?"
- "Eat slime and die!"
- "Go ahead, fetch thy mama! I shall wait."
- "Go play leapfrog with a herd of unicorns!"
- "Hast thou been drinking, or art thou always so clumsy?"
- "This time I shall let thee off with a spanking, but let it not happen again."
- "I've met smarter (and prettier) acid blobs."
- "Look! Thy bootlace is undone!"
- "Mercy! Dost thou wish me to die of laughter?"
- "Run away! Live to flee another day!"
- The {demon name} casts aspersions on your ancestry.
- "Thou hadst best fight better than thou canst dress!"
- "Twixt thy cousin and thee, Medusa is the prettier."
- "Methinks thou wert unnaturally stirred by yon corpse back there, eh, varlet?"
- "Up thy nose with a rubber hose!"
- "Verily, thy corpse could not smell worse!"
- "Wait! I shall polymorph into a grid bug to give thee a fighting chance!"
- "Why search for the Amulet? Thou wouldst but lose it, cretin."
