* HealingPotion
* HitPoints
* ImprovisedWeapon / ConsoleCameo -- A throwable Macintosh computer, whose model changed to match the state of the art as the game was updated. It actually does tremendous damage...and smashes on contact, of course.
* InstantAwesomeJustAddDragons
* JokeItem -- The "Joke scroll" only triggers the response "That was funny", [[FridgeBrilliance but just like any other scroll can fail to take effect if you lack sufficient Intelligence.]]
* LevelGrinding -- Wearing a monster ring causes endless waves of monsters to attack you. Retreat to an earlier level and it causes endless waves of ''fodder'' to attack you.
* LifeEnergy -- Only vampires can drain it; only life potion can restore it.
* LiteralGenie -- Wishing scrolls will grant you nearly any object in the game... so long as you can ''spell'' it. (It's actually quite forgiving: "extra healing potion" and "an Extra-Healing Potion, please" are equally understood, while "Death Blade +9999" will net you a Death Blade +4, the maximum, rather than punishment for your greed.)
* MagicWand
* MasterOfNone -- Each class can identify a corresponding item (Knights: armor, Jewellers: rings and gems, etc), except for the Jones, who has no special knowledge. He does, however, have the highest starting Charisma.
** There are two theories about the significance of the name:
*** Based on the Rumor "Jones lives across the street," that he's a hapless {{Everyman}} and therefore cannot identify any class of item.
*** Based on what looks like a fedora being worn, that he's an AdventurerArchaeologist named [[Franchise/IndianaJones Indiana]].
* MixAndMatchCritters -- The Alligog (alligator/frog) and Lizzog (lizard/frog)
* OurBansheesAreLouder
* PlotCoupon -- The Orb of Carnos
* PoisonMushroom -- Amnesia scroll, confusion potion, blindness potion, poison potion
* RandomTeleportation -- Teleport scrolls and teleport wands
* ReflectingLaser -- Your wand shots can miss the monster, bounce off a wall, miss the monster again, and hit ''you.''
* RoamingEnemy -- The Wandering Eye is the only monster that can turn up at any point of the game (with the probable exception of Level 40). Others are confined to a specific range of levels.
* TheSixStats
* SkippableBoss -- You can flee the Dungeon without slaying the Dark Wizard, but you'll miss out on quite a treasure drop.
* StuckItems -- The equipment you find can be cursed.
* TemporaryBlindness -- Induced by the blindness potion.
* ThemedCursor -- It's a broadsword 'til you quit.
* TransformationRay -- Polymorph wands
* {{Unicorn}}s -- They're black.
* WickedWitch
* WizardNeedsFoodBadly -- But don't eat too much, or '''your stomach will explode.'''
