Doom horror is why there are no sneak items. Could you see a Doom Horror with a "sneak ring" and a "black heart"?
*shiver* a Doom Horror Assassin.

Why bother with stealth & assassination when you can just jump in from 10 provinces away and kill everyone in sight.

I've never even seen a Doom Horror in action, but I've seen Lesser Horrors, and their capacity to kill was scary. Doom Horrors dwarf Lesser Horrors, so...

If you can get doom horrors, then you can also get a lord of the night, and he's stealthy, flying, autogenerates two fiends of darkness, and is size 6.

I played with wishing for doom horrors, and equipping them with amulet of antimagic and ring of regeneration. I lost one to a province with 50 mandragoras - undead, lifeless(?), 12 attacks doing 33 stun damage (mr negates). Neither life steal or blood vengeance is particulary usefull in that situation. It took a long time, but eventually the doom horror and half the enemies were dead.

If you have to deal with large amounts of undead, then you would probably be better off summoning archangels with your pearls as a first guess.
