Is it moral corruption or what does Subhuman have to do with it?

Maybe it means, that Nethacks pretends to be gay, but isn't really gay

What lvl are you? and what stuff are you carrying?

Drink/read/zap all un-id'd potions, scrolls and wands and hope for a cure corruption or a wish.
.. or you can try to go to the Darkforge and drink all the pools hoping for a wish (and then wish for scrolls of chaos resistance).

How the hell did you get in to that state anyways?

My character.

Chilled in the Caverns of Chaos a tad too long, I suspect.

Will have to drop by Darkforge later, see if I can't squeeze a wish or two out of those pools.

Haha, that's quite a messed up char you got there.

Well, I suggest identifying all your wands, you might get lucky. Beware tho, you have that 'mana battery' corruption so it will drain the charges from the wands you touch, so basically you can wrench only the last charge from the wand and then it will be destroyed.

Then wear those thick gauntlets, currently you're turning all your potions into poison

Also, identify your scrolls too.

If you wanna try your luck, you can try to get the scroll of chaos resistance from the hidden room at the High Mountain Village (which is always cursed.. so you need to bless it first..) OR getting potions of cure corruption from Guth'Alak at Terinyo (just bring him the corpses of the chaos guardians). The problem with this is that unholy aura corruption that will make people panic and store owners aggressive.

OR try to go down on CoC and hopefully find something usefull there.

IMHO the safest route would be getting lucky with the wands or the pools.

btw: I finished ADOM few months ago, my char here, I was happy

I don't know shit about nethack, but if I get it right you've got the lowest possible Dexterity, Charisma and Appearance... clearly you're in for some fun with that

(Dexterity is for handling anything more complicated than a club, right? So what does a Dex-1 char play like?)

He brought back joy into the life of a tiny girl.

Nic bringing joy to tiny girls?

Heh, tell me about it. He's a between-serious-characters character, so I've not been planning ahead. Got intrinsic invisibility from a pool in the Small Cave pretty early on, which is what's been keeping him alive for a whole lot longer than what I would have expected.

Yeah, I'm aware of the, eheh, adverse effects of the Mana Battery corruption, doubt I'd still be carrying around all these wands if it weren't for that damn thing. Will look into identifying the rest of the wands, though.

Took quite a while to locate a pair of thick gauntlets, but I've been making sure to wear them whenever handling potions ever since. Bet those 40 potions of poison will come in handy one day, though.

Hmm, will have to drop by the HMV. Was unaware of the room's existence the last time I paid the location a visit. Will also keep an eye out for Chaos Guardian corpses.

I've had some.. trouble with store owners, yeah. The Dwarftown one went all

on me, so I had to kill him. The congoid had it coming, though, so it's all good.

That's what I'm currently doing. Get the impression that my grave's getting deeper and deeper for every level I traverse.

Luck and I are blood brothers.
