A jackal-headed humanoid charged with preventing trespassers from defiling sacred burial grounds and with keeping unruly denizens therein under control. They are conditioned to be insensitive to extreme amounts of pain, and can alert their brethren to an intruder's whereabouts with their howling cries.

Useful Info

Anubis guards are humanoid defenders who tirelessly defend their mummy masters. Physically speaking, they hit rather hard, but are not particularly durable. However, they come with spells allowing them to seriously damage the undead and the unprotected living, and they can alert other monsters on the floor to your presence. Also, in spite of their living nature, they are immune to all sources of draining and torment. They can be found in the Tomb.

Tips & Tricks

  • Undead characters in the Tomb may have an easy time in many regards, but not against Anubis guards. Their Dispel Undead spell ignores all resistance and defensive traits, dealing anywhere from 3 to 48 damage per shot. You can disable this spell by either silencing them or sending a summoned creature out to block its line of effect, but as a priest spell, antimagic weapons do not affect them.
  • If you're playing a living character, and you're in the Tomb, there's a good chance that you already have rN+++. If so, these foes are weaker than orc knights with bad armour. If not, strongly consider leaving now; the Tomb is no place to wander in unprepared.

History

Anubis guards were added in 0.16.
