| |
A hedrow warrior, @, is a type of monster that appears in dNetHack, notdNetHack and notnotdNetHack. The hedrow warrior is a type of male humanoid drow that is strong, possesses darkvision, can be seen via infravision, and can pick up weapons, food and other items that he comes across. Hedrow warriors may turn traitor while tame.
Hedrow warriors have a weapon attack, an offhand weapon attack and the ability to cast one mage monster spell during each of their turns. Hedrow warriors have skilled prowess in martial combat and a full base attack bonus of +1 to-hit per level, and possess sleep resistance along with a weakness to iron.
Eating a hedrow warrior corpse or tin, or quaffing his blood, grants temporary sleep resistance for a duration of 3,500 turns before physical size modifiers.
