Quickling king is a type of monster in ADOM. They have immense speed, allowing them to take about ten more turns than most monsters. They are slightly stronger than other quicklings, and can shoot tiny quarrels (although these are not very powerful). Since they can attack a large number of times and move out of the PC's way in the same turn, and their attacks always penetrate armor, they are extreme nuisances and even dangerous in the late game.

| - Eating quickling royalty increases the PC's speed, but also reduces their lifespan by about 20-25%. This is usually not a good tradeoff, especially for short lived races that face extreme danger from ghost lords or ghost kings anyway.

| - Fastest of the quicklings, the kings of this race are also the strongest of arm and body, in spite of emaciated figure and diminutive size. These kings rule with their own justice, swift and strong.

| Description
| - Quickling king is a type of monster in ADOM. They have immense speed, allowing them to take about ten more turns than most monsters. They are slightly stronger than other quicklings, and can shoot tiny quarrels . Since they can attack a large number of times and move out of the PC's way in the same turn, and their attacks always penetrate armor, they are extreme nuisances and even dangerous in the late game.
Quickling kings tend to stay out of the way of bolt spells, and if they manage to survive being hit by one, their rapid regeneration combined with their immense speed makes damage they suffer almost inconsequential. They are usually best dealt with with high radius ball spells or mindcraft, since they can't easily avoid these.
Although their monster memory description says they are the fastest of the quicklings, quickling queens are actually faster .
