Could be I’m overdoing this, but better be safe than sorry. This character is immensely promising, and has a very good chance of bringing me past my record of Vaults:4. Char dump: helpme-dcss/2.txt at main · sunpin770/helpme-dcss (github.com)

First of all, if that thing breathes calcifying dust, get out immediately. If things turn south, Blink will most likely get you out of melee range of the Cab-something (Cabulopus?) and buy time to Passage of Golubria out of there. Distortion weapons have a ~5% chance to banish (According to beem), and daggers attack quickly. tp other may work, but it’s unlikely because of the buffalo’s 3 Willpips.
Also, you can press # during your game then copy and paste the link in the chat for easier morgue sharing. For example, here’s an old morgue:
https://crawl.dcss.io/crawl/morgue/person50605/morgue-person50605-20240814-021741.txt
same morgue but disguised
You can do this with the insert link option.
The two summoning spells you have could be helpful longer term…
So basically, the scroll of summoning is useful in battle beginnings, and while quite rare, is not always such a good get ot of jail card. Overall, I think one consumable, on an enemy that is OOD on Lair:4, found on Lair:,1 is pretty okay. Considering that I didn’t have to dodge to much dust, and normally that just hampers these fights really well, I consider that a battle gone well. I’ll try to update this topic with future accoplishments; this is a favorate build of mine and almost the farthest I’ve got with it. (I believe Lair:3 before; my vaults:4 death was DjCj of Ash.
It is nice to have gotten distortion on D:3

Well, appears I’v done it again.
so I, of course, only ever found 1 heal wounds this game. I read tele one turn ago, but I connot aford to take ANY damage or get poisoned.
if you get EXTREMELY lucky, blink could help, otherwise curing? Or fear scroll. Wouldn’t work on trees or spectral weapon tho I think. Or summoning scroll if you still have another. IDK, I’m just going off the old morgue.
Also, DjCj are op, especially with Majin-bo.
dump is at crawl.akrasiac.org/rawdata/AshDragon/AshDragon.txt at least for now.
thinking I use serprent’s lash, then get to the one spot where there are no trees. I still need a plan there though, and will gateway even be reliable enough? lash is only 2 free turns I think. possibly I can start a fire, though…?
How about Wall Jump? It takes 2 turns, which might trigger the teleport. (Does it work on trees?)
Oof, the trees hit hard. They only have a range of 1, though.

Morgue. Thanks for the help, Y’all, and I wish myself better luck next time.
Dying, after all, is nearly the definition of Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup.
Farewell, Ashdragon.
