Sleep is an effect players or monsters may encounter in NetHack. While asleep, you are immobilized for a number of turns. Sleep resistance prevents this from happening.

Ways to fall asleepEdit

• Drink or be hit by a potion of sleeping
• Be zapped by a wand of sleep
• Be hit by a sleep spell
• Put on an amulet of restful sleep
• Step on a sleeping gas trap
• Be attacked by a homunculus, orange dragon, Nazgul, or the Chromatic Dragon. Magic cancellation protects against the sleep-inducing homunculus bite.

Free action prevents sleep from potions of sleeping only.
