I ran into a treasure room on level 19, killed one or two monsters that walked up to the door. (I never entered the room, but hit "s" to entice them to walk in my direction.) A vampire was next. I got a message that the vampire had hit me, and expected to see "you feel weaker" but instead I got "the umber hulk's gaze has confused you." Indeed! The umber hulk queued up after I had already engaged the vampire in battle. I couldn't hit the U diagonally from the doorway, nor could it hit me, so how did I come to be confused ??? Needless to say, I didn't survive. Here are the last three "frames" from the scene of the crime: --- --- --- ?@### V@### V@### ?| ?| U|
