    • Heal.
    • Don't attack sleeping monsters.
    • Destroy the undead.

  • Act like a follower of Belweir.
    • Cast spells.
    • Identify things.
    • Dress like a wizard.
    • Avoid melee combat.

...yearns for metal crashing on metal.

  • Act like a follower of Klaskov.
    • Kill.
    • Spells are discouraged, but modest use is not a problem, at least if you leave a trail of corpses.
    • Dress like a fighter.

...thirsts for BLOOD!

  • Act like a follower of H'ruth.
    • Don't cast spells!
    • Head straight into battle and smack things around.
    • Throw weapons and use wands sparingly.

  • Act like a follower of Tlosh.
    • Don't use healing, especially spells.
    • Use ranged attacks, not melee.
    • Kill sleeping monsters.
    • Use death magic.

Missing: Acting like a follower of Quizar. Does ><0|\/| ever want you to do this? If so, what is the message.

  • Quizar's behavior code:
    • Use ranged attacks. (And avoid melee; undocumented, but you do lose favor for melee)
    • Identify things.
    • Dress like a ranger.
    • Kill sleeping monsters.
    • Find secrets (doors, traps).
    • Don't make a lot of noise (equipment choice).

...hides his desires from you.

  • Various. Tricky ><0|\/| doesn't want you to know what he wants. But use the pray function (_) often to check what is pleasing/displeasing him. Good advice in general, really.
