A shrewd and wizened orc who has devoted her life to chronicling the bloody history of her people. She claims to know the names and deeds of every last orc who lost their life in their great exodus into the Dungeon, and even if this is a lie, she nonetheless seems to be on a first-name basis with many of them.

More than any other orc still breathing, she knows the blood and sacrifice it took to make this place a refuge for her kind. She will not brook it being intruded upon by anyone - least of all you.

Useful Info

Nergalle, Lorekeeper of the Fallen is a unique orc necromancer. Although capable of inflicting negative energy damage and draining you, her biggest threat lies in the spectral orcs she constantly summons and hastes.

If you are a worshiper of Beogh, Nergalle may turn neutral and head for the nearest stairs, leaving her equipment behind.

Tips & Tricks

Three spectral orc knights can be quite dangerous, especially when hasted, so try to kill Nergalle quickly.
If you have a ring of positive energy, swapping to it will make Nergalle's bolt of draining much less of a threat.

History

Prior to 0.32, Nergalle had Summon Spectral Orcs instead of Vanquished Vanguard.
Prior to 0.19, Nergalle could cast Death's Door, rendering her incapable of dying for several turns.
Prior to 0.13, Nergalle could not appear in the Lair.
Prior to 0.8, she could not summon spectral orcs and simply pelted you with spells.
