So I have this MiFi of Okawaru at Level 10 and D:9. I've encountered
two Mummies. Killing one let to a message saying "You feel nervous
for a moment..." Killing the second one had the same message and my
quivered dagger "glows black for a moment" and is cursed.

What's going on? This is the furthest I've ever gone in DCSS and this
is the best character I've ever run. Dump below.

Also, if anyone has any advice for me that would be great too. My
character isn't good enough to venture far into the Orcish Mines so
I'm just going down dungeon levels and exploring.

Thanks,
Will

Mummy's curse! That's what's going on. Some times they just curse your
weapons/armor, easily fixed with a scroll of remove curse - but watch
out! They can turn any potion in to a potion of decay with their curse,
and that's nasty. PoD makes you rot, in other words, lose max health,
until it wears off or until you dink a potion of healing. Best to dump
all your potions around the corner out of sight before you finish that
mummy off.

You do know that mummies burn like tinder, don't you? ;-)

I'm a noob also, my best avatar so far was a level 16 troll monk of
Nemelex. He ran into a vault of mummies once, with Greater Mummies in
it. What fun. Troll using decks of summoning, Greater Mummy summoning
all kinds of hellspawn & undead (some of them summoners in turn) at the
same time - the place looked like a carnival.

;-)

Ahh, thank you so much Peter. Yes, I do know that Mummies burn. I
just wasn't sure if I was getting cursed from Okawaru or something
with the Mummy. Now I know. Thanks :)
