Brimstone Men
Just a couple of Brimstone Man (start -> ToEF -> fire orb -> leave) successes. Managed it once with my new strategy, then again to get a recording: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=12iVwLoKqg8
The key to making this ridiculous challenge at least somewhat consistent: piety scumming. Using a closed room (preferably a corner room on a fresh level) filled with red worms, it's possible to block divine wrath summons. There's usually no good way to change alignment, but praying ~1500 times overflows the cost of the unheard prayer itself. Super high piety means crowning, post crowning, recovery prayers, and perhaps most important, plenty of pick axes (otherwise you would be relying on a random altar showing up). Thanks to marklari for the inspiration for this strat. First run got robe of the master monk, Brannalbin's Cloak of Defense, and boots of the far wanderer. Second got sonic boom (random drop!), crown of leadership, and ring of immunity.
Combo: Raven Gnome Elementalist
Point buy: 15 St, 6 Le, 16 Wi, 16 Dx, 20 To, 1 Ch, 3 Ap, 18 Ma, 10 Pe (4 talents)
Starting talents: Heir (if not starting with 2 rings of fire resistance) OR Hardy, Tough Skin, Iron Skin, Immune to Pain
Other important talents: Healthy, speed line, Long Stride
Having two fire resistance rings (or fire resistance + minor elemental mastery) is pretty important, as that combined with intrinsic fire resistance protects carried iron items from being destroyed.
