This file was originally automatically generated. LEV is the base experience level (hit dice) of the monster; a value of 50 or greater means the monster will have 2*(LEV-6) hit points. SPD is the monster's speed, from 1 (slowest) to 36 (fastest), where a human has a normal speed of 12. AC is the armor class and MR is the base magic resistance saving throw percentage.

RESISTS lists monster resistances and conveyances. Lowercase letters mean that the monster is itself resistant to the attack; uppercase letters mean that eating the corpse may also convey the resistance to the player.

F Fire
C Cold
S Sleep
D Disintegration (NOT death)
E Electric shock
P Poison
A Acid
* Stoning

ATTACKS lists each of the monster's attacks. The prefix letter, if any, specifies how the attack is made:

  No letter means a direct attack
B Breath
E Engulf
G Gaze
M Magic (spell)
S Spit
W Uses weapon
X Explodes
() Defensive response when the monster is attacked
[] Defensive response when the monster is killed

A suffix letter, if any, specifies the type of damage:

  No letter means normal physical damage
A Acid
C Cold
D Disintegration (NOT death)
E Electric shock
F Fire
H Heal
M Magic missiles
P Poison (drains strength)
R Rust or corrode metal
S Sleep
V Drain level
b Blind
c Confuse
d Digest
e Drain magic energy
h Hallucination
i Remove intrinsic
m Stick to you
r Rot organics
s Stun
t Teleport you
w Wrap and drown you
x Prick legs
z Special monster attack (see note)
. Paralyse
+ Cast spell (magical or clerical)
- Steal something
" Disenchant something
& Seduce and disrobe you
< Slow
! Drain ability (C - CON, D - DEX, I - INT)
# Disease (see note)
$ Steal gold
* Turn to stone
@ Lycanthropy or turn to slime

Note that if a monster has two disease, pestilence or famine attacks, no more than one will be effective in a given turn; if the first is successful, the second is converted to a stun attack instead.
