Nemelex Xobeh



''Nemelex is a strange and unpredictable trickster God, whose powers can be invoked through the magical packs of cards painted in the ichor of demons. Followers are expected to sedulously sacrifice valuable items, the type of which will influence the gifts. Followers are also advised to trust in the cards and use them as much as possible. However, the Trickster can ensure that fortune favours the bold.''

Nemelex Xobeh is a God in Dungeon Crawl.

Followers of Nemelex are given Decks of Cards randomly upon sacrificing items. Depending on the value of the item sacrificed, the Cards may have a variable value. Once the Cards are gifted, the player can equip the item and evoke it to draw a card. Drawing a card will result in a random effect, often a targeted spell. For example, drawing the card of Venom could grant the user the ability to use Sting. After a few draws, the deck of cards disappear.

After 0.14, Nemelex has been reworked. He no longer requires followers to sacrifice items, instead granting gifts and piety based on exploration. In addition, his decks have been merged from Wonder, Summoning, Destruction and Escape to War, Escape and Wonders. Many of his cards have also been removed or adjusted.
