'''Doroklohe's Tomb''' is an extremely dangerous [[Wizard Laboratory]] that also serves as the not-so-final resting place of many extremely powerful monsters and undead. Its layout is simple: you are initially dumped into a single tile room which you can exit through a pair of secret [[door]]s. Beyond that lies a small foyer, followed by a massive chamber filled with several 3×3 tombs. At first this area will appear to be empty, but you'll hear threatening hissing noises as you explore.

If you want access to any treasure or experience, you'll need to wait until enough time has passed that all the tombs open, after which point the treasure is yours (assuming you survive its guardians). This will include a seemingly random collection of valuable items, guarded by a collection of extremely dangerous opponents all revealed against you at once. Stay near the exit while waiting for the monsters to be revealed; this will make retreat easier and allow you to face the monsters in smaller groups. If you are not confident in your ability to handle facing multiple very dangerous spellcasters simultaneously, consider leaving; there are few more dangerous areas in the game if things should get out of hand.

If you happen to know [[Lee's Rapid Deconstruction]], you can make this death trap considerably safer. Blasting open the tombs prematurely will allow you to dispose of the contents one at a time. [[Shatter]] also works, but be very careful not to open too many at once.

==Monsters==
The monsters in this wizlab are selected from three possible sets, with the probabilities indicated. The monsters within each set are grouped into three tiers: The boss monster (one per wizlab, indicated on the map by a |), the high-tier ordinary monsters (six of them, indicated by a *), and the low-tier ordinary (12 of them, indicated by a %). Some maps may have alternate arrangements of tombs, possibly including a couple extra monsters from the lower two tiers. The monster sets are:
*Demons (25% chance): The boss monster will be a [[1]] or a [[2]], a set that includes such lovelies as [[executioner]]s, [[blizzard demon]]s, and [[ice fiend]]s. The higher "ordinary" monsters can be quite nasty as well, including things such as [[tormentor]]s and [[hellion]]s, and even the lower ordinaries can include [[neqoxec]]s. Be very careful before taking on this set: it can sometimes be weak, but it can also kill you.
*Golems (25% chance): The boss here will be a single [[electric golem]]. The ordinary monsters will all be golems of varying strengths, but none are huge threats: other than the electric golem, all are melee-only and some are even slower than average. This is the easiest set to take - if you have any means of [[insulation]], even a [[potion of resistance]], you should have no trouble.
*Mummies (50% chance): Probably the nastiest of the monster sets, and unfortunately the most common. The boss will be an [[ancient lich]], and the high tier monsters will be a mix of D:27 [[zombie]]s (67%) and [[greater mummy|greater mummies]] (33%). At least the lower tier monsters will be easy: a mix of D:15 zombies and [[guardian mummy|guardian mummies]]. Take this monster set very slowly, making sure not to be in view of more than one spellcaster at a time. And don't hesitate to retreat.

-'''Doroklohe's Tomb''' is an extremely dangerous [[Wizard Laboratory]] that also serves as the not-so-final resting place of many extremely powerful monsters and undead. Its layout is simple: you are initially dumped into a single-tile room which you can exit through one of four [[door]]s. Beyond that lies a small foyer with two exits, followed by a massive chamber filled with several 3×3 tombs made of rock walls. At first this area will appear to be empty, but you'll hear threatening noises as you explore. After a time (somewhere around 200-250 turns), the walls of all the tombs (including the one you entered through) will vanish, revealing that each one contains a single monster and some treasure.

 The main danger posed by Doroklohe's Tomb is being overwhelmed by multiple dangerous opponents -- if you are not confident in your ability to handle facing several very dangerous spellcasters simultaneously, consider leaving; there are few areas in the game where things can get out of hand more quickly. If you are going to stay, consider staying by the exit as you wait for the tombs to open; the entrance to the main chamber provides a reasonably functional choke point, and you'll be able to retreat quickly should you start getting overwhelmed. Also, be aware that at least some of the monsters you'll fight will be smart enough to pick up the tomb's loot and use it against you.

 The monster sets are:
 *[[File:Brimstone fiend.png]] '''Demons''' (25% chance): The boss monster will be a [[1]] or a [[2]], a set that includes such lovelies as [[executioner]]s, [[hell sentinel]]s, and [[fiend]]s. The stronger "ordinary" monsters can be quite nasty as well, including things such as [[tormentor]]s and [[hellion]]s, and even the "weak" monsters can include [[neqoxec]]s. Be very careful about taking on this set: it can sometimes be weak, but it might also be very lethal.
 *[[File:Electric golem.png]] '''Golems''' (25% chance): The boss here will be a single [[electric golem]] with an escort of several [[crystal guardian]]s, [[war gargoyle]]s, or [[iron golem]]s. The weak monsters will pose relatively little threat -- a combination of [[gargoyle (monster)|gargoyles]], [[earth elemental]]s, and the occasional [[toenail golem]], most of which can be kited with ease. High [[AC]] helps here, as does having [[fire]], [[cold]], and [[electricity]] resistances (a [[potion of resistance]] or two is enough). Spellcasters that rely primarily on elemental damage may want to give this one a pass, as just about everything here is highly resistant to all elements; conversely, spellcasters with [[Lee's Rapid Deconstruction]] or [[Shatter]] will have a particularly easy time with the monsters here (with the exception of the electric golem, but even it will dislike being caught in assorted explosions of shrapnel).
-*[[File:Greater mummy.png]] '''Mummies''' (50% chance): Probably the nastiest of the monster sets, and unfortunately the most common. The boss will be an [[ancient lich]] or [[greater mummy]], and the high-tier monsters will be a mix of [[zombie|zombified]] monsters from the [[Depths]] (67%) and [[mummy priest]]s (33%). At least the lower-tier monsters will be easy: more zombies and [[guardian mummy|guardian mummies]], none of which make noise, so you can stealthily skirt around the edges and draw their attention one by one.
