Hello, welcome to NetHackWiki!
"Acid blobs should be attacked bare-handed."
Featured article
Demogorgon is the most difficult of the demon princes and, indeed, the most difficult monster of any sort to appear in NetHack. Fortunately, his appearance is not guaranteed and usually only occurs through demon summoning. He can be summoned directly by Orcus, Juiblex, or Yeenoghu, and hence indirectly by any demon that can summon one of these demon lords, or, rarely, by any spellcasting monster that casts "summon nasties" in Gehennom, which includes the Wizard of Yendor.
