Gharbad the Weak (Quest)

This quest includes a series of interactions with the goat-demon Gharbad the Weak. Gharbad the Weak is located on dungeon level four. At first, he will beg for mercy, promising to make something special for the hero if his life is spared. When the hero returns after leaving a sufficient distance (approximately 1 screen length away from Gharbad, this is not time-dependent), Gharbad will give the hero a magic item as proof that Gharbad will keep his end of the bargain. When the above condition is replicated, he will tell the hero that he is almost done creating the promised item. Finally, on the fourth visit, the goat-demon will attack. Defeating him will yield another magic item, and the completion of this quest. Probability seems to be exceptionally high that his 2^nd drop (upon death) is a mace-type item (running the gamut from club to maul).
