Useful Info

The unique big kobold Pikel is accompanied by several human slaves. They give no experience when killed, and become neutral freed slaves when Pikel dies, so you may want to avoid fighting them. They leave behind animal skins when killed.

Tips & Tricks

  • Check out Pikel's page for tips.
  • Slaves can be dangerous for a low-level character. In general, try not to let them come at you in a mob; they're pretty strong even individually. If you can get Pikel away from his slaves, he's much easier to kill.
    • Fortunately, Pikel will move past his slaves to attack you, so if you can just lure the lot into a corridor, isolating Pikel will be relatively simple.
  • After they become neutral, they will fight any hostile monsters they encounter, whether or not you are present. You will not get experience for their kills. This can be a problem when you wanted corpses or experience, as the full set can clear out most of the level for you.
  • Certain gods give piety for killing them.
