Demonspawn mutations

DUDE DUDE: /* Demonic Guardian */

{{version013}}
As [[demonspawn]] characters level up, they gain useful [[mutations]] due to their demonic ancestry. [[Demonspawn mutations]] are semi-random, according to the following rules. A 'facet' is a set of three levels in one mutation:
*90% of the time, they mutate as follows:
**They gain one body-slot facet
**They gain one tier 1 (scales) facet
**They gain two tier 2 facet
**They gain one tier 3 facets
*10% of the time, they are "monstrous", and instead mutate as follows:
**They gain three body-slot facets (claws, horns or antennae, hooves or talons)
**They have ''no'' tier 1 (scales) facets
**They gain two tier 2 facets
**They gain one tier 3 facet
Monstrous demonspawn are far more offensive-minded: they have lower AC due to their inability to wear any armour other than cloaks, shields, and body armour, but their claws make them well-suited to [[Unarmed Combat]]. Your auxiliary attacks also support close combat.

Here is a list of all possible demonspawn mutations. Note that many of these mutations can also be gained randomly. However, demonspawn mutations are unique in that they cannot be removed by any means. You can check your current mutations with shift-A.

=Body-Slot Facets=

Monstrous demonspawn develop 3 body-slot facets, while others gain 1.

===Claws===
Improves the damage of your [[Unarmed Combat]] fist attacks. Damage rises with rank. Wearing gloves negates the effects of this mutation; at rank 3, [[gloves]] are prohibited.

=Tier 2 Facets=
All demonspawn develop two tier 2 facets.

==Ignite Blood==
Actually consists of three seperate mutations grouped together, the first two of which are indistinguishable from the [[#Hurl Hellfire|tier 1 mutation]]: 
Rank 1: Grants conservation for [[scroll]]s. Rank 2: Grants [[Good mutations#Heat Resistance|Heat Resistance 1]]. Rank 3: Ignite Blood. Whenever you make enemies bleed (whether by inflicting [[bleeding]] or just random splashes of blood from strong blows), it creates clouds of flame.
{{flavour|1. You are very good at protecting items from fire. 2. You are resistant to fire. 3. Your demonic aura causes spilled blood to erupt in flames. }}

==Icemail==
Actually consists of three seperate mutations grouped together, the first two of which are indistinguishable from the [[#Passive Freeze|tier 1 mutation]]: 
Rank 1: [[Good mutations#Cold Resistance|Cold Resistance 1]]. Rank 2: Grants [[conservation]] for [[potion]]s. Rank 3: Icemail. It grants +10 AC and melts away when you take fire damage or cast [[Fire Magic]], but it regrows over time. Icemail also lets you walk through freezing [[cloud]]s without losing potions or taking damage.
{{flavour|1. You are resistant to cold. 2. You are very good at protecting items from cold. 3. A meltable icy envelope protects you from harm and freezing clouds.}}

==Powered by Death==
This mutation triggers whenever you kill anything that leaves a corpse. Increases your regeneration rate by 100 (same as the spell) for each [[corpse]] within (3 * rank) tiles of you. Duration is (8 * rank) + 2d8 turns (Max: 40). All corpses contributing to this effect will rot slightly faster.
{{flavour|A wave of death washes over you.
1. You can steal the life force of nearby defeated enemies.. 2. You steal the life force of defeated enemies. 3. You quickly steal the life force of defeated enemies.}}

==Mana Shield==
The mana shield mutation has three levels. The first gives you innate [[spirit shield]]. Level two increases your MP regeneration rate. Level three causes your HP regeneration to instead fuel regeneration of MP when you are at low MP.

{{flavour|1. ? 2. ? 3. ?}}

==Demonic Guardian==
Summons one or more friendly demons to aid you temporarily. Only occurs when [[tension]] is high, and dismisses them when tension drops. Higher mutation levels require higher tension to activate. As of version [[0.13]], this mutation will not go into effect as long as you worship [[Okawaru]], prompting the message "Your demonic guardian will not assist you as long as you worship Okawaru." when first acquired. Rank 1: Tier [[5]] ([[White imp]], [[lemure]], [[ufetubus]], or [[iron imp]]. Rank 2: Tier [[3]] or [[4]] ([[Orange demon]], [[hellwing]], or [[smoke demon]]). Rank 3: Tier [[1]] or [[2]] ([[Executioner]] or [[balrug]]).
{{flavour|1. A weak demonic guardian rushes to your aid. 2. A demonic guardian rushes to your aid. 3. A powerful demonic guardian rushes to your aid.}}

==Nightstalker==
Grants +40 Stealth per rank, while reciprocally reducing LOS by -1 per level, making both you and all monsters less likely to see each other.
{{flavour|1. You are slightly more attuned to the shadows. 2. You are significantly more attuned to the shadows. 3. You are completely attuned to the shadows.}}

==Spiny==
Any monster that attacks you in melee is attacked for ((mutlevel)d6 - player EVP). Blocked attacks don't count, and the attack is subject to monster EV and AC.
{{flavour|1. You are partially covered in sharp spines. 2. You are mostly covered in sharp spines. 3. You are completely covered in sharp spines.}}

==Powered by Pain==
If d(Damage) > 2+3*Rank, or Damage > HP/2 ("Ouch! That really hurt!"), you either:
*regain 3d(2+3*Rank) MP. (50% chance)
*get a [[Might]] effect (25% chance)
*get an [[potion of agility|Agility]] effect (25% chance)
{{flavour|1. You sometimes gain a little power by taking damage. 2. You sometimes gain power by taking damage. 3. You are powered by pain.}}

==Foul Stench==
The foul stench tier has three levels. In the first, you gain one rank of the [[Saprovore]] mutation. In the other two, you obtain the first and second level of Foul Stench proper.

When adjacent monsters attack you in melee, they have a 33% chance per level to become [[sick]]. When monsters land a strong hit, there is also a 20% chance per level you may cause [[miasma]] to appear over the monster. This mutation also provides [[rot]] resistance, which negates rotting, sickness, and the effects of miasma.

{{flavour|1. You emit a foul stench, and are resistant to rotting and decay. 2. You radiate miasma, and are resistant to rotting and decay.}}

=Tier 3 Facets=
All demonspawn gain one tier 3 facet.

==Hurl Hellfire==
Actually consists of three seperate mutations grouped together, the first two of which are indistinguishable from the [[#Ignite Blood|tier 2 mutation]]: 
Rank 1: Grants conservation for [[scroll]]s. Rank 2: [[Good mutations#Heat Resistance|Heat Resistance 1]]. Rank 3. Lets you hurl [[Hellfire]] as an ability, but it costs 25% of your max HP. Damage is far greater than monster hellfire: it depends on XL, but at XL27 it does 6d28 damage, as compared to 3d15 or 3d20 for monsters. Like monster hellfire, it ignores AC and fire resistance, but not hellfire resistance.
{{flavour|1. You are very good at protecting items from fire. 2. You are resistant to fire. 3. You can hurl blasts of hellfire.}}

==Passive Freeze==
Actually consists of three seperate mutations grouped together, the first two of which are indistinguishable from the [[#Icemail|tier 2 mutation]]: 
Rank 1: [[Good mutations#Cold Resistance|Cold Resistance 1]]. Rank 2: Grants [[conservation]] for [[potion]]s. Rank 3: You passively cast [[Freeze]] on any monster that attacks you in melee. Like the spell, this always hits.
{{flavour|1. You are resistant to cold. 2. You are very good at protecting items from cold. 3. A frigid envelope surrounds you and freezes all who hurt you.}}

==Robust==
Gives you +10% max HP per rank.
{{flavour|1. You are robust. 2. You are very robust. 3. You are extremely robust.}}

==Negative Energy Resistance==
The first two ranks grant increasing resistance to [[negative energy]]. The third rank grants Stochastic [[Torment]] Resistance (you have a 50% chance of negating damage from a torment).
{{flavour|1. You resist negative energy. 2. You are quite resistant to negative energy. 3. You are somewhat able to resist unholy torments (1 in 2 success).}}

==Augmentation==
Each level gives a spell enhancement and slaying bonus that kicks in at high HP. Bonuses are equal to max(0, ceiling(mutlevel*(2*hp - maxhp)/maxhp))*(0.4*[[spell power]] + 4 [[slaying]]), so you become more powerful at higher levels of HP.

{{flavour|1. Your magical and physical power is slightly enhanced as your life falls. 2. Your magical and physical power is enhanced as your life falls. 3. Your magical and physical power is greatly enhanced as your life falls.}}

=History=
Mana Shield was added in [[0.13]].

Prior to [[0.12]], Augmentation kicked in at low HP instead of high HP.

Prior to [[0.11]], [[magic resistance]] was available as a Tier 2 facet.

{{flavour|The stiff and knobbly hide of a troll. I suppose you could wear it if you really wanted to.}}

Butchering a [[troll]] [[corpse]] may produce a '''troll hide'''. This "[[armour]]" increases your regeneration rate, but only provides the [[AC]] of a [[robe]], has an [[EV]] penalty, and causes you to [[hunger]] much faster while injured, making it one of the worst armours in the game. However, you can transform it into a [[troll leather armour]] by using a [[scroll of enchant armour]] on it. This provides the same boost to regeneration, but with a much better AC.

{{flavour|The stiff and knobbly hide of a troll. I suppose you could wear it if you really wanted to.}}

Butchering a [[troll]] [[corpse]] may produce a '''troll hide'''. This "[[armour]]" increases your regeneration rate, but only provides the [[AC]] of a [[robe]], has an [[EV]] penalty, and causes you to [[hunger]] much faster while injured, making it one of the worst armours in the game. However, you can transform it into a [[troll leather armour]] by using a [[scroll of enchant armour]] on it. This provides the same boost to regeneration, but with a much better AC. Note that this armour's regenerative bonuses do not work on [[deep dwarves]].
