The Dungeons of Doom ====================== by Boudewijn Wayers (dedos4@win.tue.nl). This file describes all branches and special levels in the Dungeons of Doom. It is divided in several parts, sorted by branch. Per branch, the various special levels are described in the order in which they are usually encoutered. The Dungeons of Doom (D) are 25 to 30 levels deep. There are several special levels in this main dungeon. Their location is indicated in the following table. Also in this table, you'll see where to find the so called branches, leading away from the Dungeons of Doom. These branches may have branches or special levels themselves, which are named when the branch in question is described later on. In this document, branches are double underlined while levels are single underlined. ================= ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Level or branch Abbr.

Well, pay up! The larger room depicted has a door at both the right and left side, and is centered on the screen. There are five ordinary rooms on both sides, which contain the up and down staircases. The little room in the centre has a gap at one of its sides. This is where the oracle lives. Seven random monsters are created, as well as 3 random traps and 6 random objects. ------------- |`.........`| |.....`.....| |...-----...| |...|.{.|...| |..`.{@{|`..| |...|.{.|...| |...-----...| |.....`.....| |`.........`| ------------- The Bigroom ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This level is just as the name implies: nothing more than one BIG lit room, containing 28 monsters, 6 traps, and 15 items.

If you don't play the right tune, you get indications like in MasterMind. There are no stairs down, but you can always use one of the trapdoors. Left and right of the castle is a small maze. To motivate you to clear out the castle, there are 4 storerooms (armour, weapons, food and gems, randomly chosen which room contains what) and a wand of wishing in one of the 4 towers. Randomly generated monsters include liches, nagas, elementals, giants, mummies, ogres, rust monsters, trolls, xorns, and zombies. Their initial placement in the throne room is random. One of the places markes "/" below has a wand of wishing safely on it. }}}}}}}}}.............................................}}}}}}}}} }-------}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}-------} }|.@/@.|-----------------------------------------------|.@/@.|} }|.....+...............................................+.....|} }-------------------------------+-----------------------------} }}}}}}|..@.@...|@@@@@@@@@.+L..N..E..H.|%%%%%%%SDS[[[[[[[|}}}}}} .....}|.@...@..|@@@@@@@@@.|.M..O..R..T|%%%%%%%|D|[[[[[[[|}..... .....;|........------------X..Z..L..N.---------S---------;..... .....}#..@{....+..........+.E..H..M.\(S.^...^...^...^..^+...... .....;|........------------O..R..T..X.---------S---------;..... .....}|.@...@..|@@@@@@@@@.|.Z..L..N..E|)))))))|D|*******|}..... }}}}}}|..@.@...|@@@@@@@@@.+H..M..O..R.|)))))))SDS*******|}}}}}} }-------------------------------+-----------------------------} }|.....+...............................................+.....|} }|.@/@.|-----------------------------------------------|.@/@.|} }-------}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}-------} }}}}}}}}}.............................................}}}}}}}}} The Gnomish Mines =================== The Gnomish Mines are just as the name implies: large caves filled with gnomes and some dwarves, some of the latter still busy mining. Objects to be found are 3 random stones, one random tool, and 3 other objects per level. There are six traps per level. Monsters found are 7 gnomes, a gnome lord, 2 dwarves, 2 random gnomes, and one other random humanoid. The Mines' Town ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Also known as the Shopping Mall, the Gnomish Mines' Town is a level containing mainly a lot of buildings. The larger room depicted has a door or gap at both the right and left side, and is centered on the screen. There can be various shops: a random one in the upper left building (90% chance), a tool shop in the lower left building (90%), a food shop in the building with %'s below (90%), and a candle shop in the middle one of the top right row of buildings (always). Also, there is always a temple with a randomly aligned priest. There are four watchmen and a watch captain, all peaceful. There are ordinary rooms on both sides, which contain the up and down staircases. These other rooms have 2 traps, 3 gnomes, and a dwarf. --------------------------------- |...............................| |.------------.....------------.| |.-%(!-...-%%-.....+..-(((-...-.| |.-+[)-...-%%-.....-G.-(((-..G-.| |.-="/-...-@.-.....-..-.@.-...-.| |.-..@-...-+--.....----+----+--.| |.--+--+---.....................| |.............{......{..........| |.-+---+---....--+---...........| |.|..@|...|---.|.G..|.-----+---.| |.|(((|...|G.-.|...G|.+..-....-.| |.|(((|...|..+.|.@_.|.-..-....-.| |.|(((|...|..-.|....|.-..-....-.| |.------------.------.---------.| |...............................| --------------------------------- The Mines' Bottom Level ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Gnomish Mines' bottom level is really nothing special, except for one thing: there is a luckstone to be found here, behind closed doors. The walls here are undiggable. Accompanying the luckstone are 2 diamonds, 3 emeralds, 2 rubies, and 2 amethysts, stacked in that order, but with random stones between them. The luckstome follows the last amethyst without interveining random stone. Scattered about the level are 7 other stones and 2 tools, 6 traps, and the following monsters: a gnome king, 3 gnome lords, 2 gnomish wizards, 9 ordinary gnomes, 2 hobbits, 3 dwarves, and one random humanoid. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | |.......| |.......-...| |.....| | | --------- ----.......-------...........| ---...--- | | |.......| |..........................--- --.......| | | |......------- ---...........<............| |.......-- | | |..--........-----..........................| -.-..---- | | --..--.-----........-.....................--- --..-- | | --..--..| -----------..................---.----------..-- | | |...--.| |.*S...S..............---................-- | | ----..----- ------------........--- ------------...--- | | |.........-- ---------- ---...-- ----- | | --.....---..-- -------- --...---...-- | | ----..-..-- --..--------------------- --......-- ---........| | |--....----- --..-..................--- |........| |.......-- | |.......| --......................| --......-- ---..---- | |--.--.-- ----.................--- ------..------...-- | | |....| |...............-..| |...........| | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Quest =========== Each of the various character classes has what is known as a Quest. On a certain level, some six to eight levels after the Oracle, you will receive a telepathic message from your Quest leader. Search this level well, and you will find a portal that will transport you to the so called "start" level of the Quest. As soon as you arrive here, search once or twice to mark the spot where you arrived. This will spare you a lot of time later, when you want to return to the main dungeon. On this level, your Quest leader will assign you your Quest (if you fulfill certain conditions). From there, go down and proceed the the "locate" level, and subsequently to the "goal" level, on which your nemesis dwells. He has the Bell of Opening and your Quest Artifact, which you must both seize from him. In a seperate file "quests.map", to be found on the same site where you got this file, for each class, you will subsequently see the "start" description and map, your Quest's assignment, the "locate" description and map, and the "goal" description and map. Fort Ludios ============= Well, who did you think is the owner of all those little 2x2 Magical Memory Vaults containing all that money? It is the legendary King Croesus of Lydia, and his main vault is located here. Gold and gems in abundance, as well as guards... The King himself is sitting on his throne (\), surrounded by his audience. The room next to the place you start (^) is a zoo as well, and both are marked as such below. The main vault is littered with land mines. The corner towers contain (trom top left to bottom right) diamonds, rubies, emeralds, and amethysts. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- | |........|...............................................................| | |........|.@......@.........@.........@....................------------..| | -------+--..@..............................................|@@@@@@@@@@|..| | |........}}}}}}}....................}}}}}}}..........|@@@@@@@@@@|..| | |........}-----}.........D..........}-----}..........--|--|--...|..| | ---........}|***|}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}|***|}.................|...|..| | |..........}---S------------------------S---}.................|...|..| | |..........;}}|$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$|..........|;}}.................-...|..| | -------.........D}|$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$S..zoo.....|}...................|...|..| | |.....|..@.......}|$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$|......\...S}D.......@..........|...|..| | |.....+........;}}|$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$|..........|;}}......@..........-...|..| | |.zoo.|........}---S------------------------S---}......@..........|...|..| | |.....|...@....}|***|}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}|***|}.................|...|..| | |..-S----.@....}-----}.........D..........}-----}..........--+--+--...|..| | |..|....|......}}}}}}}....................}}}}}}}...@......|..........|..| | |..|....|...................@.@.......@.............@......|..........|..| | -----------................................................------------..| | |..............................................................| ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gehennom ========== Now re-worked for NetHack 3.1, hell is much less boring than it used to be. Gehennom is no longer considered "hellish" in its entirety (that is: fire resistance is no longer a condition for survival in it). However, Gehennom, and the special levels in it in particular, is abundant with fire traps. As a result, fire resistance is still a prudent survival strategy in Gehennom. Gehennom (G) is 25 to 30 levels deep. All levels, if not specified otherwise, are maze levels. That is, the maps depicted here are centered and any space left around it is a maze.

The Wizard's Tower ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Wizard of Yendor's Tower is three floors high. Its entrance is NOT in the tower itself, and you have to climb up to get at the top room, where the Wizard of Yendor resides. He carries the Book of the Dead. The Top Level ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Wizard is in the middle of his tower, accompanied by a vampire lord and a hell hound. To warn him of intruders, he is surrounded by squeaky boards, two of which are shown. There are four other traps on the level, by the way. Loot includes a ruby, 2 potions, 2 scrolls, and 3 spellbooks. Only the walls inside the moat are diggable. There is a randomly generated secret door somewhere in the walls surrounding the moat (not the top wall).

There, apply the Book of the Dead, the Candelabrum of Evocation and the Bell of Opening to gain entrance to Moloch's Sanctum. A lot of monsters and traps are shown below, but there are also some randomly generated ones: 6 traps, 4 pieces of armour, 2 weapons, a stone, 4 potions, 6 scrolls, 2 liches, and 3 vampires. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------- | | |............| ------- | | -------.....@......----- |.....| | | |.&....&@..............| --.....| --------- | | ----..@.^^^^^^^^^^^.......---------|......---- |.......| | | |.......^---------^.........|......+.........| ------+---..| | | ---.....@.^|.......|^.........--S----|.........| |........|..| | | |.........^|..&_...|^...&........| |.........-------..---------- | | |.......@.^|...@...|^.........---- |..........|....|..|......| | | |.........^|.......|^.........| --.......----+---S---S--..| | | |.........^---------^.........| |.......|.............|..| | | ---.....@.^^^^^^^^^^^.........| -----+-------S---------S--- | | |........&@.@...@...........| |...| |......| |....|-- | | ----.....................---- |...---....--- ---......| | | |.....................| |..........| |..<..---- | | -------...........----- --...------- |.....| | | |...........| |...| |.....| | | ------------- ----- ------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Vlad's Tower ============== Vlad's Tower used to be part of Gehennom, but is now a seperate branch thereof.

In the endgame, you can only go up, so there is no return possible once you've left the Dungeons of Doom and entered the endgame. Don't forget to bring your stuff. The Elemental Plane of Earth ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The player lands, upon arrival, in the lower-right cavern. The location of the portal to the next level is randomly chosen. This map has no visible outer boundary, and is mostly diggable rock with a few open spots. Monsters shown are all located in caves. EE. 'E.. E. ..TT. ..E E. .&.. .H.. HE. .E.. EE. U.v.
