Grasland (use a fixed-width font like Courier to display the tables correctly) Fountains ~~~~~~~~~ Fountains are especially found in predefined vaults or otherwise fixed levels. There are 4 types of fountains: - Fountains of clear blue water - Fountains of blood - Fountains of sparkling water - Dry fountains Fountain of clear blue water ============================ No effect if you drink water from it. The fountain has 5% chance of drying each time you drink from it. Fountain of blood ================= Drinking from it has the same effect as drinking a potion of blood. The fountain has 33% chance of drying each time you drink from it. Fountain of sparkling water =========================== Drinking from it will give you a random potion effect, according to the following table: +----------------------------+-------------+ | Fountain effect | Probability | +----------------------------+-------------+ |Potion of water | 46.7% | +----------------------------+-------------+ |Potion of healing | 4.0% | |Potion of heal wounds | 4.0% | |Potion of speed | 4.0% | |Potion of might | 4.0% | |Potion of levitation | 2.7% | |Potion of invisibility | 2.7% | |Potion of magic | 2.0% | |Potion of restore abilities | 2.0% | |Potion of berserk rage | 2.0% | |Potion of gain strength | 0.4% | |Potion of gain dexterity | 0.4% | |Potion of gain intelligence | 0.4% | +----------------------------+-------------+ |(Total good potions) | (28.5%) | +----------------------------+-------------+ |Potion of decay | 4.8% | |Potion of mutation | 4.0% | |Potion of degeneration | 3.2% | |Potion of poison | 2.7% | |Potion of slowing | 2.7% | |Potion of paralysis | 2.7% | |Potion of confusion | 2.7% | |Potion of strong poison | 2.0% | +----------------------------+-------------+ |(Total bad potions) | (24.8%) | +----------------------------+-------------+ The fountain has 10% chance of drying and 16% chance to become a fountain of clear blue water each time you drink from it. At the bottom of the Elven Halls (level 7), controlled teleportation is impossible until you dry the sparkling fountain. Dry fountain ============ Dried fountains may flow again after some time (1% chance every 20 turns) and become the fountain they were before drying up (dried fountains of sparkling water will become fountains of clear blue water if the the fountain of sparkling water turned into a fountain of clear blue water before drying up). Fountains that are generated permanently dry will never flow again.
