The dwarven gas grenade is a small [[container|Container]] similar to a [[bottle ]] used to store gaseous materials rather than liquids. Like a bottle the gas grenade may be [[throwing|thrown ]] and broken to release its payload, this time in the form of a deadly gas cloud.<br>
Like a bottle they are quite fragile and prone to breaking in your inventory and releasing their payload. Unlike a bottle they cannot be found empty and cannot be dipped(!) or taken from.
Gas grenades first appeared in IVAN CVS, and can be found containing either mustard gas (damage over time), skunk smell (poison), or raw magic essence (mushroom gas effect).
Upon impact the gas grenade will attempt to create a 3x3 gas cloud centered on the tile where it detonated. Gas clouds will appear over entities, but not over solid objects such as walls and closed doors.
== Exploit ==
'''Note: The following exploit has been addressed in the newer builds of IVAN. It will still work in CVS, LIVAN and CLIVAN.'''
The way the gas grenade spawns its gas cloud assigns no blame to the player, meaning that any damage caused by a gas cloud to a friendly or neutral NPC is not attributed to the player and does not turn the NPC hostile.
== Trivia ==
* Although you can avoid the effects of mustard gas via having some form of gas immunity, real-life mustard gas does not need to be inhaled in order to burn you to death.
