Let's Play ADOM

Chapter 15: Caverns of Chaos VII
Quick stop by the barbarian's glade to pick up my items!
And then, back into the Caverns of Chaos once more.
Stocking back up on cooked lizards on the way down! I was running low.
Always stay on good terms with the Gods!
Past the animated forest!
Screw doing things the easy way! Right now I need EXPERIENCE.
FIRE AND MAYHEM
I could probably melee most of these guys to death, but I don't like stat drains.
No problem!
Got a scroll of identify!
Looks like the amulet I got at crowning was an amulet of balance. I'll stick with my Ankh.
The CROWN OF SCIENCE seems awesome (+8 PV! +9 Le!), but it dooms, grants bad luck, and becomes cursed the instant you equip it. Bad.
!!!!!!!!!!!!
BLESS THAT SHIT
A cursed ring of djinni summoning summons a hostile djinni. An uncursed one gives you a djinni companion.
A blessed one...
WIIIISH
I'll need these later!
Much, MUCH later.
Beyond the water temple!
Dealing with the eternium golem this time! It resists lightning, so it's up to Acid Ball to save the day.
+40k experience!
And into lands unknown!
VAMPIRES
CORRUPTION ALERT
Poison Hands
Melee attacks poison enemies.
Any food touched is poisoned and cursed unless I wear thick gloves.
One of the worst corruptions in the game.
Cured!
Also cured of my previous corruption.
Cure Serious Wounds!
That sure is a thing.
Sometimes monsters are just not hostile! That's how ADOM rolls.
And finally, I have completed the zone of backwards floors!
I'm totally in the bottom half of the Caverns of Chaos now.
&
Moloch
Threat Level: 8/10
Special: Very slow, insane PV, insane health, insane damage, immune to fire, immune to cold, destroys altars
Corpse: +1 To, -1 Dx
While being nigh-invincible, molochs are insanely slow - his speed is exactly half mine, AND I have seven league boots.
In other words, I'm safe as long as I'm careful.
Like so!
WHAT THE FUCK TELEPORT AWAY JESUS
@
Eternal guardian
Threat Level: 0/10?
Special: Unique, blocks staircase
"You may pass."
The eternal guardian disappears.
This is a weird scene because the game doesn't necessarily expect you to have gone and gotten the Ring of the High Kings by now - it's the item required to pass the guardian. Otherwise, trickery and combat are required to get past, and it can't be permanently slain - when angered, it creates duplicates of itself.
Next: Shortcuts good and bad!
