* [[Demonic Spiders]]: There's ''at least'' two or three at any point:
** On early levels, you have to deal with floating eyes that [[Standard Status Effects|paralyze]] you, gas spores which [[Action Bomb|do up to 24 damage by exploding when they die]] at a point wnhere you may be lucky to have 25, and killer bees that can poison and instakill you. Floating eyes can be avoided, and killer bees respect Elbereth, but may The Lady help you when your overleveled pet decides to start attacking that gas spore right next to you...
** On early-middling levels, you have to deal with [[Them!Big Creepy-Crawlies|monstrous ants]], including soldier ants -- the most common enemy-based cause of death in the game (accounting for 1.75% of all deaths on nethack.alt.org). [http://nethackwiki.com/wiki/Ant#.22Go_Team_Ant.22 Go team ant!]
** On the middling levels, you have the infamous cockatrices and many enemies who can swallow you and kill you, including lurkers and purple worms (which can also be encountered on the earlier levels).
** Then you must contend with [[Demon Lords and Archdevils|demon lords and princes]], and should you actually ''survive'' them, you have to take down both [[Dracula|Vlad the Impaler]] and the Wizard of Yendor. {{spoiler|The continually-resurrecting sorcerer will harass and pursue you as far as he possibly can until the Astral Plane, where you instead fight the consistently respawning [[Horsemen of the Apocalypse|Riders of the Apocalypse]]: Death, Pestilence, and Famine. [[Tomato In The Mirror|You're War.]]}}
