| | + | '''Mellis''' is the [[Gods|god]] of money, trade, and politics. His alignment is N- (neutral leaning towards chaotic). |
| | | | |
| − | === How do I end the game? === | + | ==Praying== |
| | | | |
| − | A. There are five different ways.
| + | If you have a good relation with Mellis and pray to him, he will do one of several things. |
| | | | |
| − | * Death - Very typical ending for IVAN (as the title itself suggests). Simply, get killed by something, like monsters or land mines, but not limited to those...
| + | He may give you a new limb out of one of his [[List of materials|aligned materials]], such as expensive fabric or (hopefully) a valuable metal such as diamond. |
| − | * Freedom - Slay [[Elpuri]] and give its head to [[Petrus]]
| |
| − | * Knighthood - Can be achieved by giving Petrus the [[Shirt of the Golden Eagle]]
| |
| − | * Avatar of Chaos - Kill Petrus and take his left nut out of town. [[Mortifer]] takes you in personally
| |
| − | * High Priest - Kill Petrus, become [[Valpurus]]'s champion and sit on the golden throne wearing the Shirt of the Golden Eagle
| |
| | | | |
| | + | If you are carrying empty or broken bottles and cans in your inventory, he will fill them, up to 5, with random contents. This includes banana flesh, school food, healing liquid, poison, etc. Very rarely, you will get an ommel fluid, with the most common being [[Ommel Tears]], Mellis's drink of choice. |
| | | | |
| − | === What is the "Ommel cerumen trick"? ===
| + | Like all gods, if you have very favorable status with him, he may summon his [[Angel]] or Archangel, Leguleius, to help you. |
| | | | |
| − | A. It is a way to maximize the player's [[Intelligence|INT]] and [[Wisdom|WIS]] with extreme ease.
| + | He may also introduce you to other gods and boost your status with them. If he is angry at you, however, he will spread rumors about you among the gods, resulting in lowered status with all the gods. |
| − | Of course, it is a kind of exploit which breaks some of background game mechanisms, and regarded as a cheat and will be looked down upon, if you have been informed and still tried.
| |
| − | First, find a scroll of change material, and then read it to change something large enough into ommel cerumen, and eat it. Although you can't make other ommel stuffs or holy banana flesh, it works because DevTeam failed to forbid player to make ommel cerumen.
| |
| | | | |
| | + | ==Altars== |
| | | | |
| − | === What should I wish for? ===
| + | [[Image:Mellis.png]] |
| | | | |
| − | ''IVAN has a lot of items, but the following are extremely useful and so are a good idea to wish for. The data is accurate for v0.50.''
| + | There are no guaranteed locations for altars to Mellis. However, he is the patron of shopkeepers, and all three that you may encounter will be carrying his book. |
| | | | |
| − | *[[scroll of change material]]: This is a great way of improving your gear and limbs. Which materials you can wish for depends on your intelligence; thus you may wish to polymorph to a more intelligent monster before using this. Good materials include eg. phoenix feather, mithril and octiron.
| + | ==Aligned Items== |
| − | *[[scroll of taming]]: There is nothing like a good pet, but do not try to use this on a quest monster. Note: This doesn't include Rondol, Guuzamesh, and so on.
| + | |
| − | *[[wand of cloning]]: These by themselves are not useful, but if you do have some other useful item to clone, this is worth its weight in gold. With one charge you can clone a pile of five items. Note that certain items like wands of cloning, scrolls of wishing or scrolls of charging cannot be cloned because this could be abused. It is therefore sometimes wise to drop more than five items in pile in case the game doesn't allow some to be cloned. If you have a powerful pet like Ivan or a mammoth, you may lure it above the items so it will be cloned, too. You can also stand on the item pile and zap yourself, in which case you will be copied along with the stack. Note that when cloning a pet or yourself, the clone will be born without any equipment and only four items under it will be copied.
| + | Offering these items to Mellis at his altar will receive a greater bonus towards your relation with him: |
| − | *[[wand of resurrection]]: If you have managed to get a unique monster as a pet, this may be extremely useful. It may also be used to quickly replace lost limbs.
| + | |
| − | *[[Cloak of invisibility|cloak]] or [[ring of invisibility]]: Invisibility is a great tactical advantage, but it also causes much more dangerous monsters to be generated.
| + | [[Left Nut|copy of the left nut of Petrus]], [[fifty million roubles]], [[Belts|belt of carrying]], [[Helmet|helmet of attractivity]], [[Huang Ming Pong|Decos's shirt]], a bottle of [[Ommel Tears]] |
| − | *[[ring of polymorph control]]: Very useful if you happen to have a way of polymorphing. Note that being very powerful may cause tough monsters like dark mages to spawn, which is not nice if you encounter them after you have returned to your original form.
| + | |
| − | *[[amulet of life saving]]: Basically gives you a second life. That's a *lot*.
| + | Or an item made of any type of valuable (diamond, gold, etc), or expensive fabric. See the [[List of materials]] for more details. |
| − | *[[magical whistle]]: Handling more than two pets is almost impossible without this.
| + | |
| − | *[[Mjolak]], [[Turox]], [[Saal'Thul]], [[Vermis]], [[Neerc Se'ulb]], [[thunder hammer]]: Way more powerful than normal weapons. Saal'thul also grants invisibility and Vermis gives teleport control with teleportitis while it also randomly teleports creatures you hit with it. It is sometimes wiser to wish for a broken thunder hammer instead of an intact one, since the game often generates better materials for broken items to compensate the need of repairing.
| + | [[Category:Gods]] |
| − | *[[Holy Banana of Oily Orpiv]]: Has terrible explosive power which can aid you in boss battles. Also trains all attributes when eaten. Be sure to store this in a hard container like strong-box, because if it explodes in your inventory, you're in BIG trouble.
| |
| − | *[[Armor of Great Health]]: If you have scrolls of enchant armor, this gives a huge boost to your HPs. Again, a broken one may have a better material, but usually you want to use a scroll of change material for this one, anyway.
| |
| − | *[[Belt of Levitation]]: You're flying as long as you have this equipped. Makes you tougher to hit, and nearly immune to bear traps and mines. Make sure something doesn't step on a mine if you're near one, though; you can still be hit by the blast.
| |
| − | *[[Money]]: You get 50 million roubles, which I was able to sell for just 2 gold pieces.
