I really would like to try it but the 7z decompression program doesn't run on my pc!
Why don't you upload a .zip or .rar compressed file?

I noticed that the Roguebasin page mentioned a large number of diseases/venoms/curses able to be caused by monsters...can anyone attest to this?  That's the sort of thing I really like in a roguelike.

Annoying staff? Staff of aggravation? (SCNR)

Please keep in mind not everyone here is English.
Some people (like me) make mistakes not because they are inattentive, rather they know Runglish better than English and cannot do better at this moment .) Here's the source of annoying stuff in our posts.

Regarding venoms and diseases - yes they are numerous.

P.S.
Annoying staff is people who bother you at work, not letting you play roguelikes .)

Fenrir lazily tilts his head, and a rear paw casually shoots up to scratch behind an ear.

I tried it and quite liked it. Created some strong character and explored the Misty Forest. Found a druid inside, but he was quite greedy. Left the forest and beside some river some panther found and ate me.

Windows emulator managed to handle this game but mouse support was screwed. When moving the mouse outside standard viewport game would crash. But that probably is effect of trying windows stuff on linux and not Rayel's fault.

Need to invest more time to this game but currently I mostly play ZAPM.

Other comments:
 - Equipment screen is neat like in ADOM but your ordering appeals more to me.
 - Random edible stuff (grass, fruits) found in forest or elsewhere in the wild works well. I like how effects are listed in status screen.
 - No objective to complete and wild freedom caused me to wander around world but with nothing special to do this quickly becomes boring.
 - "Press ctrl+q" after death would be helpful.
