Wizard of Yendor

The Wizard of Yendor, is the guardian of the Book of Dead. He resides in his tower in Gehennom. You must get the Book of Dead from him before you can descend to Moloch's sanctum and get the Amulet of Yendor from the high priest of Moloch.

When you manage to get the Amulet, the Wizard of Yendor will start causing trouble to you. He resurrects every time you kill him, level teleports after you, summons nasties and tries to steal the amulet. Perhaps the most menacing spell the wizard can cast is Double trouble, which creates a clone of the wizard himself.

The wizard may and will follow you up to the Elemental Planes. However, he will not appear in the Astral Plane.
