 '''Monster generation''' does not happen under most circumstances. In a few branches, or when holding the [[Orb of Zot]], monsters will spawn over time.

-While monsters do not normally spawn once you enter a floor, some effects or branches may generate new monsters as you stay in it. Specifically, there is a "'''monster generation rate'''" (MGR), and every 5 turns, there is a (5 in MGR) chance of a monster spawning somewhere on the level; a higher value means a slower spawn rate. This monster will normally fit the branch it was spawned in. The MGR's value varies:
+==Useful Info==
 *[[Pandemonium]]: starts at 50. After 3k turns, it gradually rises until reaching 300 (at 15k turns).
 *[[Abyss]]: set to 5, so there is always a monster spawn every 5 turns.<ref>{{source ref|0.30.1|mon-place.cc|284}}</ref>
 **From Abyss:1-5, there is a <code>Floor/5</code> chance that two monsters spawn.<ref>{{source ref|0.30.1|timed-effects.cc|293}}</ref> In Abyss:6, three monsters always spawn, and in Abyss:7, four monsters always spawn. Also, spawns in A:6-7 may be forced to spawn near you.

 For worshippers of [[Cheibriados]], the MGR in the Abyss or while holding the [[Orb of Zot]] is doubled (halving the spawn rate).
