An '''unrand''' (or '''unrandart''') is short for '''"unrandom artefact,"''' an [[artefact]] with set appearance and properties.


An '''unrand''' (or '''unrandart''') is short for "unrandom artefact," which is an [[artefact]] with a set appearance and properties (unlike a [[randart]]).  (There's no such thing as a "List of Randarts" because they're, well, random.) An unrandart that is specialized to have unique, hardcoded properties is sometimes referred to as a [[fixedart]], although this distinction has become blurred with time.
==Useful Info==
Unrands always have the same properties between games, as opposed to [[randart]]s ("random artefacts", which have randomly generated properties). Unrands may have special mechanics not found anywhere else in the game, such as [[Frostbite]]'s ability to create freezing [[cloud]]s. Unrands with unique properties have historically been called '''fixedarts''', though the distinction has become increasingly blurred with time.


<!--'''NOTE: Before adding something to this list, go into [[wizard mode]] and use the command "create all unrandart items." If the item you want to add is not generated by that command, then it's just a randart so don't add it.'''-->
Unrands cannot be modified by [[scroll]]s, even for [[Mountain Dwarves]]. [[Chaotic]] unrands may generate in [[Xom]]'s [[bazaar]]s, with the [[chaos]] brand on top of any existing properties; this is the only way to obtain a 'modified' unrand.


=Rings=
Only one instance of any particular unrand may generate per game.
[[File:Ring_of_the_mage.png]] [[Ring of the Mage]] {Wiz MR Int+3}
*If you don't pick up an unrand that generates in a temporary [[portal]] level, or accidentally destroy the unrand by dumping it into [[lava]], it is lost forever.
*Any unrand in the possession of a monster you [[banish]] to the [[Abyss]] can be found in the Abyss, though this may take a very, very long time.
*If an [[acquirement]] (either from a [[scroll of acquirement|scroll]] or an [[Okawaru]] gift) offers an unrand and you pick something else, it can generate elsewhere.


[[File:Ring_of_robustness.png]] [[Ring of Robustness]] {AC+8}
Although it is extremely likely to find at least one unrand over the course of any given game, there is no guarantee that any particular unrand will generate, or that the unrands that ''do'' generate will be of any use to you.


[[File:Ring_of_shaolin.png]] [[Ring of Shaolin]] {EV+8}
Certain unrands are more likely to spawn in the early game, where they are most useful:<ref>{{source ref|0.32.0|artefact.cc|1584}}</ref> [[Delatra's gloves]], [[woodcutter's axe]], [[Throatcutter]], [[Hermit's pendant]], [[Devastator]], [[ratskin cloak]], [[Kryia's mail coat]], [[Lear's hauberk]], [[trident of the Octopus King]], [[robe of Augmentation]], [[staff of the Meek]], [[amulet of Elemental Vulnerability]], [[robe of Misfortune]], [[Force Lance (unrand)|Force Lance]], and toga "[[Victory]]".

It sometimes spawns an allied death-themed monster in combat, like a shadow, a reaper or a Soul Eater.<br>
Evil<br>


This weapon will drain monsters, in addition to inflicting Necromancy miscasts on them a la mummy death curses. It will also curse random inventory items, and has a terrible weapon as its base type. Only consider it if you already have 26 skill in polearms, and really don't care about your inventory being cursed constantly.
[[File:Consecrated labrys.png]] +4 [[consecrated labrys]] {holy, Valiant ^Fragile Fly SInv}


Ashenzari "absorbs" the curses if you worship him, preventing them from affecting you.

[[File:Glaive_of_prune.png]] '''''A purple glaive'''''<br>
[[Vorpal|Vorpal]] brand<br>

It's a +4, +12 glaive of chopping. Zin hates it. Glaives are bad weapons, generally. You're probably better off with a bardiche or a demon trident.

Sigmund's dream weapon, this is a reasonable choice for those who are already using two-handed polearms and have the skill to get it to min delay. Probably not worth training polearms to 26 just to use it though.

A good weapon for the early- and mid-games, but sadly a spear will be outclassed later on, even one as good as this.

A good weapon if you find it early on, where its properties can be a lifesaver.  Unfortunately its to-damage enchantment is generally too low for general use.
[[File:Scythe_of_curses.png]] +13 [[scythe of Curses]] {drain, curses, ^Drain}


==+9, +6 [[Wyrmbane]]==

rPois<br>
Allows Berserk<br>


Base stats are 8 damage, +4 accuracy, and 11 delay. If a Dragon slaying-vulnerable target is killed by the base damage of this weapon, it will gain +1, +1 enchantment up to the HD of the dragon killed.  The maximum enchantment it can gain this way is +18, +18.  This ability makes Wyrmbane a decent weapon if you're willing to invest the time killing dragons with it.
[[File:Glaive_of_prune.png]] +12 [[glaive of Prune]] {freeze, Prune}

[[File:Lehudib's_crystal_spear_(weapon).png]] '''''A crystal spear'''''<br>
[[Returning]] brand<br>

Good if you have decent throwing skill or find it early on.  The spell does more damage, obviously.

This mace also creates a halo effect similar to TSO's halo. The halo from this mace has a radius of 3 squares.
[[File:Whip_snakebite.png]] +8 whip "[[Snakebite]]" {venom, curare, rPois}


Its AC, SInv and Int bonus are useful early on, but a mace is too weak a base weapon to be good against later-game monsters, even those vulnerable to holy wrath.

It's a giant club of speed.  If you find this and can wield it, it's about the best weapon you can hope for, barring the occasional Trog gift.

Prevents Teleportation


Has a nice enchantment and brand, but is of a mediocre base type. The -TELE isn't a huge problem, since you can just unwield it, but be careful not to get yourself into a situation where that extra turn costs you your life.
[[File:Great_mace_undeadhunter.png]] +7 great mace "[[Undeadhunter]]" {deathbane, rN+}

[[File:Great_mace_undeadhunter.png]] '''''A great steel mace'''''<br>

Deals special damage to undead but no extra to demonic monsters. If you find it and are already using two-handed maces, it's a good switch for places such as Tomb or Crypt.
[[File:Mace_of_variability.png]] +7 [[mace of Variability]] {chaos, chaos arc}


==+5, +10 Whip "[[Snakebite]]"==
[[File:Dark maul.png]] +10 [[dark maul]] {heavy}
{{flavour|A double-ended whip made from the cured hides of the Lair of the Beasts' deadly black mambas.}}
[[File:Whip_snakebite.png]] '''''A forked whip'''''<br>

Good early on, but you'll want something with more base damage later.

==(-4 to +16), (-4 to +16) [[Mace of Variability]]==
[[File:Carina at Dusk.png]] +9 giant spiked club "[[Carina at dusk|Carina at Dusk]]" {concuss, ShootingStar, rN+}
{{flavour|It is rather unreliable.}}
[[File:Mace_of_variability.png]] '''''A great shimmering mace'''''<br>
[[Chaos]] brand<br>


A [[great mace]] that has no fixed damage or accuracy bonuses. Anything between -4/-4 and +16/+16 is possible. The mace has a 40% chance to change its attributes each turn it is wielded. Changes its color as well.  Probably not very useful, since it is two-handed and requires a large investment in [[Maces & Flails]] skill.
==Ranged Weapons==
[[File:Urand punk.png]] +3 greatsling "[[Punk]]" {acid, rCorr}


==+7, +6 [[Sceptre of Torment]]==

Forces [[Symbol of Torment]]<br>
Evil


The effect triggers on 50% of attacks and 0.5% of turns that it is wielded. Great if you're undead, useless otherwise.  Even if you are undead, make sure to have a backup, since the weapon is barely mediocre against anything torment-immune.

[[File:Shillelagh_devastator.png]] '''''A loaded stick'''''<br>

This is basically an upgraded club that makes things explode when you hit them with it. Useful for quickly clearing out swarms of fragile enemies like bats or killer bees, but the explosions will hurt you too, so be careful.

[[File:Longbow_storm_bow.png]] '''''A night blue bow'''''<br>

Randomly spawns rain clouds, which is of dubious use even for amphibians, because of electricity's behavior in water. Otherwise a great weapon.

Luckily, it doesn't need any special arrows to be effective. Experienced archers may still prefer a [[longbow]] to this weapon, though the speed is quite advantageous against unarmoured targets.

Useful if you're using crossbows and can take the rC hit. Seems to have a strong tendency to be found on [[Gehenna]]:7.

The venom effect is nice, but a well-enchanted crossbow of velocity is probably better.

Does a huge amount of damage at the cost of a small amount of evasion.  Pretty good.

The stealth bonus is somewhat nice, but most stabbers will need to switch to a dagger when close to their targets, somewhat limiting this weapon's usefulness. Note that unlike all other randart blowguns, it does not have a speed brand (nor any brand).

Found by killing the Enchantress, it has random properties, usually positive.  Specifically, it will almost never have any of +Rage, *RAGE, -CAST, *TELE, or MUT(+).  It also has a small (1/20 chance of each) chance to have clarity, +(1 to 11) MP, or +(-10 to 11) HP.  It will always be positively enchanted, with somewhere between +2 and +7 enchantment.  Base stats are identical to [[mottled dragon armour]]: 6 AC, -1 EV, wearable by all races that can wear armour.  It even provides the same [[sticky flame]] resistance.

A +9 [[gold dragon armour]] with 50 MR. Very nice if you can wear it, although with enough scrolls of enchant armour you can get slightly more AC out of a normal GDA.  However, said scrolls would usually be better spent enchanting (and possibly repairing) secondary pieces of armour, such as cloaks of preservation or boots of running.  If you're a heavy armour user and you find this, use it.

Good for a stabber, although as with the Robe of Augmentation many players may prefer something which gives elemental resistances to be in their armour slot.  Useful in the [[Elven Halls]], where monsters use [[Hexes]] against you and make themselves invisible.

This item will randomly generate thin mist and rain around you. The rain may turn into shallow water or turn shallow water into deep water. Unfortunately this makes using it for any prolonged period of time impractical for most players other than merfolk, flying tengu, and [[Fedhas]] worshipers.

The worst artefact in the game. It is quite dangerous to wear for any period of time, given its mutagenic radiation, its teleportitis, and its prevention of spellcasting. And due to its randomized appearance, wearing any unidentified randart robe always poses a risk. Make sure you have scrolls of remove curse handy.

A nice shield if you can take the INT hit. Be aware that walking around with 2 intelligence is unwise, even if you're not a spellcaster. Being crippled by every passing [[neqoxec]] is not fun, even if you don't suffer a statdeath.

Despite first appearances, this item is actually incredibly dangerous to use. The noises it makes are worse than shouting or the Singing Sword; they attract every monster on the level to your position. Combined with the fact that the guardian spirit attribute renders it useless to casters, who have crowd control spells, it is very difficult to imagine a character who would find this shield safe and usable.

A good source of rElec and EV, although at the cost of 2 potential AC. The Stealth hit is not generally too terrible; usually you either have enough stealth it doesn't matter, or you aren't using stealth at all. Only stabbers might disagree.

Latest revision as of 09:39, 17 October 2026

Version 0.34: This article is up to date for the latest stable release of Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup.

An unrand (or unrandart) is short for "unrandom artefact," an artefact with set appearance and properties.

Useful Info

Unrands always have the same properties between games, as opposed to randarts ("random artefacts", which have randomly generated properties). Unrands may have special mechanics not found anywhere else in the game, such as Frostbite's ability to create freezing clouds. Unrands with unique properties have historically been called fixedarts, though the distinction has become increasingly blurred with time.

Unrands cannot be modified by scrolls, even for Mountain Dwarves. Chaotic unrands may generate in Xom's bazaars, with the chaos brand on top of any existing properties; this is the only way to obtain a 'modified' unrand.

Only one instance of any particular unrand may generate per game.

  • If you don't pick up an unrand that generates in a temporary portal level, or accidentally destroy the unrand by dumping it into lava, it is lost forever.
  • Any unrand in the possession of a monster you banish to the Abyss can be found in the Abyss, though this may take a very, very long time.
  • If an acquirement (either from a scroll or an Okawaru gift) offers an unrand and you pick something else, it can generate elsewhere.

Although it is extremely likely to find at least one unrand over the course of any given game, there is no guarantee that any particular unrand will generate, or that the unrands that do generate will be of any use to you.

Certain unrands are more likely to spawn in the early game, where they are most useful:[1] Delatra's gloves, woodcutter's axe, Throatcutter, Hermit's pendant, Devastator, ratskin cloak, Kryia's mail coat, Lear's hauberk, trident of the Octopus King, robe of Augmentation, staff of the Meek, amulet of Elemental Vulnerability, robe of Misfortune, Force Lance, and toga "Victory".
