Line 473:
** The [[Hawaiian-Shirted Tourist|Tourist]] class is basically one big [[Shout-Out]] to [[Discworld]]. The quest leader's name is even Twoflower! In addition, when [[Terry Pratchett]] passed away from Alzheimer's in early 2015, NetHack 3.6.0 (released later that year) contained a few tributes to the author:
*** Novels named after works in the Discworld series could be found in bookstores. Reading a novel displays a quotation from Pratchett's writings, and the first novel read gives 20 experience points.
*** Breaking expensive cameras may release an imp or a homunculus, as an homage to ''[[Discworld/The Colour of Magic|The Colour of Magic]]'', where iconoscopes, the ''[[Discworld]]'' equivalent of cameras, each contain a 'picture-painting demon'.
*** Squeaky board traps now squeak in a specific pitch (e.g. "You hear a distant B flat squeak"); in ''[[Discworld/The Light Fantastic|The Light Fantastic]]'', a character has floorboards tuned so he can determine not only if someone is approaching, but also where that person is standing.
*** {{spoiler|[[Death]] now speaks {{smallcaps|in all caps and without quotation marks}}}} in the same manner as the recurring Discworld character.
** ''[[Dune]]'' - The worm tooth and crysknife are available as weapons.
