Fly (Tengu)

Version 0.15: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.

Fly is an ability which tengu gain upon reaching experience level 5. It allows them to take off from the ground and fly for a period of time. It does require them to be on the ground, however: an already-flying tengu cannot extend their flight time with this ability. You may end flight at any time through use of the Stop Flying ability.

Tengu flight grants all the flight bonuses normally associated with tengu (see their page for details).

Spell Power: XP Level × 4
Duration: 25 + random2(power) + random2(power) turns of flight (max 100)
Cost: 3 MP, 100 food
Success Rate: 55 + (3 × XP Level)
Examples: 70% at level 5, 100% at level 15

At level 14, a tengu's Fly ability will grant indefinite flight, allowing you to fly without fear of running out of time over hazardous terrain. You may end this flight at will.

History

Prior to 0.15, tengu flight became permanent at level 15.
