    Default Stuck - minor spoilers

    Hi, I'm a new player and I'm hoping to avoid a stupid death... I got sick of being Very Light so I went to the High Mountain Village for the Scroll of Corruption Removal. I managed to get IN to the hidden room but I didn't give any thought to getting OUT! I was led to believe by the improved guide that there'd be a teleportation trap. I can't dig out, trap creation produces arrow, spear, alarm, pit, and acid traps but no teleportation traps, and The One Who Rages will not hear my prayers. Am I a dead orc???

    (Stay tuned for a post in the stupid deaths forum.)

    Yep. Unless there's Any chance you have a tp scroll. You said you are new, so you may not know that wands with 0 charges can still work or can be recharged with booze. You can also try a wand of wonder pointed at yourself as a last resort.

    In short there ar just few ways to get out - book failure teleport, item polymorph (exchange, raw chaos potions) or getting astral planes corruption (the area is non corrupting).

    In the current version traps are randomized instead of fixed layout, so you can't rely on specific spot having specific thing.
    So far rolled 15 casters with RoDS and shamelessly killed them within 200 turns. For eternium glory!
    (after 15 I stopped counting...)

    The range of one for the teleportation spell means that it can be cast on yourself or any adjacent monsters; the teleport effect itself is the same as any other.
