Milestones (+5 each)

Reach XL3.
Enter Lair, Orc, or Depths.
Reach the bottom of D, Lair, or Orc.
Collect your first rune.
Find the entrance to Zot. (Just using magic mapping doesn't count.)
Collect your third rune.
Win the game.

The main way to score points. +5 points each, and can be done in any order. (You don't need to tell me which milestones you achieve.)

Conducts (+5 each^*) Weapons Don't wield anything. This means you're limited to unarmed and throwing attacks, but also you can't wield staves or other things for stat bonuses even if you don't plan on hitting enemies with them. Equipping a shield is fine.

Summonings Train your Summonings skill to at least 16.

Magic Don't cast any spells with Transmutations, Necromancy, or Conjurations schools, or those that are purely elemental and offensive in nature (e.g. Poisonsous Vapours, Ignition). Swiftness and Ozo's Armour are allowed. As an exception you can cast Haunt if you really want it.

^* Conducts are worth +5 points each, to a maximum of half your score from milestones, rounded down. (So if you achieve 4 milestones (20 points) you can earn up to 10 points from conduct bonuses.) Please indicate which conducts you qualify for when you post your morgue.

Bonus ★ You Can't Fight What You Can't See Don't equip any equipment that grants SInv (see invisible). You can still have the See Invisible or Antennae 3 mutations if you're lucky enough to get one. Tip: Your ancestor can see invisible creatures, as can Canine Familiar, and many other higher-level summons. Some monsters like Unseen Horrors can be polymorphed fairly easily.

Meatshields Up! Have your Armour, Dodging and Shields skill below 5 for the entire game. If you use crawl's skill target feature, be aware of the following bug: - If you gain a lot of experience from one enemy it is possible for a skill to exceed a set target. You might want to set a target of 4.5 or lower, to have a bit of margin for error, and maybe even don't train those skills if you're about to kill a difficult/high XP enemy like early Sigmund.

Bonus challenges are worth one star each, similar to banners in Crawl tournaments. Please indicate challenges that you qualify for.
