Can you believe that the whole reason I’m asking is because I keep trying to run Ghoul Necromancer and dying to stupid stuff before even getting to the first branch? I keep running into dragons on level 3, centaur warriors on level 4, and the most decroded antediluvean monsters as early as level 5 like sun gods, gargoyles, weird purple and cyan things, etc. When I first played it more last year I got decently far on melee fighter runs, no such luck this time around.
This is a pretty common feature of traditional roguelikes. Try Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup.
