Game Content
New Monsters
Added 28 new monsters (and 4 for future use):
- Rakshasas (including rakshasa rajah and rakshasa maharaja) that are immune to normal weapons similar to shades and that have an illusory appearance similar to a cloned Wizard of Yendor.
- New dinosaurs and prehistoric creatures, mostly encountered on caveman levels.
- Saber-tooth tigers. Changed the starting pet for the Caveman role to a saber-tooth tiger cub. There are now also tigername and tigergender options for saber-tooth tigers.
- Griffons (including elder griffon), Nightmares, and bulettes.
- Orc hermit also got his own monster and graphics.
New Spells and Adjustments
- Added 6 new spells: Astral Vision, True Seeing, Dominate Undead, Polymorph Self, Shape Change, and Unholy Mount.
- Polymorph spell is now called Polymorph Other (although you can still target yourself).
- New true seeing property gives the ability to see through invisibility, illusions / mimicry, hallucinations, and polymorphed forms.
- Redesigned the spell duration system to be additive but capped at the maximum possible single-cast roll (i.e., number of dice × die size + constant).
- Increased Astral Vision range to 5 to distinguish it further from X-ray vision.
New Items and Adjustments
- Added 5 new items: Gem of seeing (gives true seeing) and 4 ioun stones: Magical breathing, fire resistance, cold resistance, and shock resistance.
- Allowed gnolls of all alignments to obtain the Howling Flail.
- Belts of giant strength have now varying chances of wishing success, with storm giant strength at 33% and hill giant strength at 100%. If it fails, a belt of hill giant strength is obtained instead.
