Useful Info
Small abominations are mindless demonic horrors with semi-random stats that stalk the Abyss. They are much less dangerous than large abominations, but can still be pests, especially when their speed is higher than 10.
You can receive friendly abominations by casting the Twisted Resurrection spell.
Tips & Tricks
- Though these are much weaker than the big version, they are much more likely to have high speed. This makes running from them in the Abyss a challenge, and you generally don't want to stand and fight there.
- Being mindless, they can be lured into traps easily.
- Despite being made out of corpses, abominations are demonic rather than undead. Holy damage is still effective against them, but Dispel Undead won't work.
- Using corpses to create abominations instead of zombies offers some advantages. Although expensive, abominations can heal and use stairs. You can also make abominations out of corpses that can't be zombified, such as ugly things. They can also be upgraded to large abominations through further use of Twisted Resurrection.
Alternate Tiles
Being haphazard collections of random body parts, small abominations can take multiple forms:
History
Prior to 0.12, you could read a scroll of unholy creation to get a permanent friendly abomination.
