How can I tell what intrinsics I have?

[LittleLady]

I accidently attacked a Karmic lizard (currently running away) how can I tell if he cursed/doomed me? (I don't remember if it said anything)

When you attack it, you will get a message "You feel like this was a bad idea" or something to that effect. It happens most of the time, but not always. Beyond that, you can drink a potion of insight or cast the Revelation spell.

If you're doomed, you'll know it very quickly. Cursed... maybe not; its effect is pretty weak.

I remember the you feel like this was a bad idea message >.< my first char past the village dungeon (not counting the one I quit vs saving exit)

"You are fire resistant"
"You are cursed" >.<

To cure cursing, you'll have to offer many things to your god...

[Silfir]

Just for sake of completion, each "You feel as if this was a bad idea!" will do this, in order: Take away Fate Smiles, take away Lucky (both will be present if you start the game on Creator's Birthday, for instance), curse, then doom. If you are nothing, it will curse you. If you have never gained enough piety to get Lucky or Fate Smiles, then two hits mean you're doomed.

The good news for you is: Doomed is about ten times worse than Cursed. Cursed gives a little bad luck - you'll notice it gets somewhat harder to hit monsters than before, but a few more levels of weapon skill and you're pretty happy. The worst effect is that sometimes your prayers don't get through, so don't rely on them in an emergency.

If you're doomed, these effects are that much worse. It's not a death sentence, but you should make getting rid of it your prime effort.

By the way - karmic lizards are good eatin'!

You can easily survive being Cursed. Just be more cautious than normal when fighting tough monsters or monsters that have special attacks (such as ghul paralyze).

The worst part about Doomed is that ghuls become little walking death machines. Doomed would not be half as bad if it weren't for paralysis.

Pretty much. I've been killed a couple of times in the Griffyard by a single ghul despite having over 200 HP and 30 PV while doomed. Intrinsic paralysis resistance from a pool is worth more than a wish (not that I can ever get one).

I still have my cursed merchant, I made a new character, started with a potion of wonder and learned 'Wish' I was like woooo! My first wish. Casted it and went to -4xxx hp /youdie
