Random Number God
2014-04-26 11:54:15 -04:00
The malign force which lurks behind the random number generator in Angband
(and by extension elsewhere). A dark god that demands sacrifices and toys
with its victims. I just found a really great item; I suppose the RNG is
about to punish me... Apparently, Angband's random number generator
occasionally gets locked in a repetition, so you get something with a 3%
chance happening 8 times in a row. Improbable, but far too common to be pure
chance. Compare Shub-Internet.
