Changing farmer Maggot's dogs color
There are only two kinds of C that @ is likely to encounter in the very first levels: jackals and farmer Maggot's dogs. Mixing them up could be problematic: while the former are usually harmless, the latter are a tough encounter at low levels. So, why are they the SAME COLOR?

They're pretty easy to pick out by the sound of doors crashing down, and the fact that they're alone.
Even still, yellow, orange, or dark brown would all distinguish them from Jackals. Wolves at dungeon level 10 are dark brown, and have comparable stats. |

i've had issues w/ the fact that carcharoth is the same color as hellhounds... i don't think i've ever lost any characters due to this, but have been often shocked to be hit with a nasty nether breath when i'm expecting some puny flames..
maybe that's part of the fun/danger, though ![]() |

Nah, just replace 'em with a new unique: Princess Toadstool!
![]() --- It's Princess Peach Toadstool, who is not actually a fruit OR a mushroom! She thinks you are one of Bowser's henchmen sent to kidnap her. She moves at average speed. She resists slowing, confusion, disenchantment, and light. She is vulnerable to fire. She can slap to stun for 2d2, scream to aggravate nearby monsters, and hit to steal mushrooms. She is magical, casting spells which heal self or shield self, about 1 time in 5. She has 10 hit points. Killing this enemy, normally found in another castle at depths of 50 ft, is worth 0 points for a 1st level character. She usually drops 1d8 mushrooms. ---

Ariel, Vargo, Waldern and Quaker always come alone, just like the elementals Itangast and Scatha Eol, Maeglin the ringwraiths. Tselakus Balrog of Moria, Gothmog and Lungorthin aren't such a big deal because you never see groups of balrogs without them...but still. I'd make lesser and greater balrogs a different color, they have the "unique" color now. I think I got most of the ones I've ever confused for something else. |
