Version 0.29: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.
All monsters in Crawl are sorted into six fundamental categories of holiness: Holy, Demonic, Undead, Non-living, Plant, and Natural.
Monsters of each type of holiness have several attributes in common. For instance, all plants, undead, and nonliving are unbreathing. Only natural or plant monsters are vulnerable to negative energy. Demons and undead are automatically evil.
From mon-data.h, line 45:
MH_HOLY - irritates some gods when killed, immunity from holy wrath weapons
MH_NATURAL - baseline monster type
MH_UNDEAD - immunity from draining, pain, torment; extra damage from holy
wrath/disruption; affected by repel undead and holy word
MH_DEMONIC - similar to undead, but repel undead effects are ignored --
*no* automatic hellfire resistance
MH_NONLIVING - golems and other constructs
MH_PLANT - plants
