    Of course!
    ADOM Guides - whatever you wanted to know about playing a certain class, but have been afraid to ask!

    Check out my youtube channel to see my ADOM videos, including a completed playthrough of the game. I try to give instructions, so if you want to see some place you haven't been before and get some hints on how to deal with it, this might help! There's also some other games featured there that you might find interesting.

    More achievements:
    • Kill no more than one of each kind of monster you killed.
    • Same as above but also no companions may kill anything.
    • No use of identified potions/scrolls/wands/books. You can use them if they are not identified yet.
    • No use of food.
    • Reach HMV at experience level 1.
    • No diagonal moves (except in the wilderness map).
    • Do not take any damage.
    • Eat any corpse you find and increase Food Preservation skill whenever possible. If you can't eat, eat as soon as possible and if you have acid power you can use it to reduce satiation level until you can eat, and then you must do so. (If the game won't let you eat that (such as doppelganger corpse), you can drop it.)
    • No upstairs command used until you reach the point that you can go only upstairs from there to reach the HMV.
    • No more than 100 stones weight carried at once.

    (If you have names for these, I will add them)

    I was doing awesome devloping my rl, I only need to figure out a non messy working way of connecting my rooms together via paths but suffice to say I have hit a major brick wall hence I am going to roll an adom character, just a random one. This will be the first time I have tried this so I doubt I will last long!

    A lawful dwarven healer, quite nice. After the SMC however, directly a river. Fortunately also a corruption trap that gives me astral planes direcly. So I jump around a lot ... On UD2 then a dark elven warrior that poisons me and I have to use two prayers and a potion of extra healing, but he panics and runs off. The reason why I stayed were splashing sounds and ... yes! a black pool. I feel flexible, I feel very lucky, I swallow hard (whatever that means) and I feel like jumping around!!!
    On UD3 a stupid barbarian almost kills me with his arrows, I have to drink my last PoEH to get out alive... and a ghost ages me 10 years or so. On UD5, a tension room of gnolls hits me hard and hunts me through the whole level until teleportation kicks in. They occupy the stairs...

    Ok death by trying to kill the gnoll, unfortunately, the stairs was not below them but in a secret room.

    Just finished the challenge. The RNG generated a Dark Elf Wizard.
    I created my own achievement too
    Mr. Quick: Descend as fast as possible, take the staircase as soon as you see it. (Completed it)
    I died at my second turn in HMV, killed by the stone giant.

    Hadn't done this before, so just tried it. Got a male grey elf barbarian. He got insanely lucky. Got the water blanket and a nice halberd in SMC, then got a tower adamantium shield from a lesser undead vault in UD1, then found blessed seven league boots and an adamantium spear. In HMV Leggot sold me a +3 PV girdle and a wand of paralyzation to top it off. I might actually play on with this character.

    But no swear words.
    You steal a scroll labelled HITME. The orc hits you.

    Rolled a raven-born drakeling beastfighter. Piece of cake!

    The very first mob I face at the SMC is a rat. It hits and sickens me. It's been a long time since I was sickened by a rat... At level 4 I climb down the stairs and wait for the sickness to cure. After that it was a walk.

    My own achievement (I didn't read all the posts, I hope it's not duplicated):

    MORNING PHLEGM Spit your way down to the HMV (exclusively). Done.

    Wonderful. Let's try again.
