Bleeko the Neutral Gnomish Wizard
2022-11-20: Ascended in 55310 turns
hardfought.org, November Nethack Tournament
version 3.6.6

Took a couple of tries to make it happen, and a bit of start-scummiung
for a ring of slow digestion, but I ran this wizard foodless to the
quest for an achievement.  It was a close thing though, because I had
let my hunger advance to Weak and was about to pray.  I just wanted to
make sure that it was safe, so I sacrificed a little nothing monster.

  "Thanks Little Mortal Dude!  Here's Magicbane!"

Oh no!  How am I going to reset my timeout before fainting??  I read
whatever create monster scrolls I had and started blowing a whistle,
but still hadn't gotten there.  There was a tengu on the other side of
the board that I figured I might be able to chase down, so I started
moving towards him, when he warped right to me!  Phew!  That put me
over the top so the foodless run could continue.

When I got to the quest, I had poly control, so I tried to leave the
nemesis alive.  Became a wood nymph, hit one bell, hit two eye, and
goodbye!  I had so much fun that I did the same with Vlad and the High
Priest too.   A very fun game.
