A homunculus, i, is a type of monster that appears in EvilHack and Hack'EM. The homunculus is a stronger version of the homunculus from NetHack, with the same traits: flight, infravision, infra-visibility, and the ability to follow a hero to other levels when adjacent to them. In Hack'EM, they are also carnivores similar to the homunculus of xNetHack.
A homunculus has a sleep-inducing bite, and possesses sleep resistance and poison resistance along with a weakness to silver.
A homunculus corpse is poisonous to eat, and eating a homunculus corpse or tin grants 2⁄15 each (+13%) of additional poison resistance and sleep resistance.
Generation
Randomly-generated homunculi may be generated as peaceful towards chaotic heroes and Infidels. A lesser homunculus can grow up into a homunculus, and a homunculus can grow up into a greater homunculus.
Breaking an expensive camera has a 2⁄9 chance of creating a homunculus, which will be peaceful unless the camera was cursed.
Homunculi appear among the random i that are part of the first quest monster class for Knights and make up 24⁄175 of the monsters that are randomly generated on the Knight quest. They also appear among the random i that are generated on each floor of the Wizard quest at level creation. In Hack'EM, homunculi also appear among the random i that are part of the second quest monster class for Necromancers and make up 6⁄175 of the monsters randomly generated on the Necromancer quest.
