Useful Info

Tengu conjurers are hostile birdmen that know attack spells. They spawn in the late Dungeon and early Depths, often with tengu warriors.

Tengu conjurers are swift-moving, fairly strong monsters. A big threat if spawned out-of-depth (before D:13 or so).
Lightning Bolt can doublezap, so try not to stand in front of walls.
They have low will and HD, so Mephitic Cloud, Hexes, hex wands, etc. are good at disabling them.
The battlespheres can be destroyed very easily, if it happens to be next to you.

Prior to 0.31, tengu conjurers had fast movement speed but were less likely to cast Battlesphere.
Prior to 0.27, tengu conjurers could have one of four possible spell sets:
- Force Lance (3d11), Iskenderun's Battlesphere, and Blink
- Mephitic Cloud, Venom Bolt (3d12), Iskenderun's Battlesphere, and Blink
- Shock (d12), Lightning Bolt (3d14), Iskenderun's Battlesphere, and Blink
- Throw Flame (3d7), Bolt of Magma (3d15), Iskenderun's Battlesphere, and Blink
Prior to 0.25, their pure Conjurations spell set had Iskenderun's Mystic Blast.
Tengu conjurers were added in 0.12.
