Line 27:
* [[Artistic License Biology]]: Goats that lay eggs, horses that can wield weapons, fishes in plate mail, and more.
* [[Author Appeal]]: The variant author has many loves that she inserts into the game, but among her foremost ones are fleecy things and high heels. The latter's even a weapon you can use!
* [[Blessed
* [[Bonus Boss]]: Many, e.g. demon lords that can only be gated in by other demons. Arguably the most dangerous foe in the entire game is the Elder Priest of Moloch, who has plenty of attacks that can easily off an endgame-capable player character, but a player who manages to beat him gets [[Bragging Rights Award|a cool robe]].
* [[Breaking
* [[Deader Than Dead]]: If your ungenomold character runs out of hit points, not even {{spoiler|an amulet of life saving}} can prevent your death.▼
* [[Challenge Run]]: The game includes several classes and races that are purposely made extremely difficult to play.▼
* [[Death By Sex]]:
▲* [[Deader Than Dead]]: If your ungenomold character runs out of hit points, not even an amulet of life saving can prevent your death.
▲* [[Death By Sex]]: Not only is the act described with excessive graphic detail, your love interest can also betray you and use a nasty attack after stripping you naked. There is even a unique death message if it happens.
* [[Department of Redundancy Department]]: Invisible invisible badguys are just one example of many.
* [[Even Evil Has Standards|Even Chaotics Have Standards]]: A chaotic Jedi might not be punished for murder, but attacking a peaceful being is a violation of the way of the Jedi.
* [[Everything Trying to Kill You]]: Items that are safe to use in vanilla NetHack can turn out to be dangerous, e.g. when a random box turns out to be a box of digestion that eats the valuable items you put into it. Malicious terrain is abundant, including stalactites that hurt players who fly into them, rain clouds that rust the player's iron equipment, or moorland that deals damage while the player swims through it. And triggering the wrong trap can cause the interface itself to try to screw you over!
* [[Extreme Omnivore]]: In addition to what humans can usually eat, the Activistor can eat lithic and metallic objects.
Line 46 ⟶ 45:
* [[Luck-Based Mission]]: The mould and ungenomold races are capable of polymorphing into monsters with no way to control it. You may be lucky and polymorph into a powerful black dragon, or end up as a slow-moving lichen that can't equip anything and deals no damage when attacking an enemy.
* [[Nintendo Hard]]: There are so many ways to die that it's highly unlikely to avoid them all and win the game. Later in the game, almost every enemy monster has something bad going on, which will screw up players who don't pay attention constantly.
* [[Pokemon
* [[Respawning Enemies]]: And the longer a game goes on, the higher the respawn rate will rise. If you hurry up and get to the Amulet of Yendor quickly, the respawn rate will be maxed out for the remaining game anyway. There is also a trap that causes monsters to respawn somewhere on the current level when killed.
