It generates 40 charge per turn, versus the 20 charge used whenever the vibrokhopesh makes an attack, meaning it will never run out of energy under normal circumstances. However, the Zero Point Energy Collector will cease to function under the effects of [[normality]],{{Code Reference|namespace=XRL.World.Parts|class=ZeroPointEnergyCollector}} causing the vibrokhopesh to lose its vibro status; in this case it will only have a PV value of {{PV}}4. | ||

{{favilink| | {{favilink|Flume-Flier of the Sky-Bear}} is an item unique to Saad Amus. When activated, it allows its wearer to enter a {{qud text|&Wdashing}} state, causing them to move in the direction of their choosing continuously for, at most, 20 tiles within a single turn. The wearer will continue to move in their chosen direction until they encounter an obstacle or they reach 20 tiles from their starting point. They remain in this state for 10 rounds, after which the item will be placed on cooldown for 100 rounds. | ||
Upon encountering an obstacle, such as a creature, the wearer will make an attack with a bonus to hit and penetration, equal to +2 to hit and penetration for every 3 tiles they travel. In combination with his vibrokhopesh, this allows Saad Amus to do massive damage to the player with a single strike. | Upon encountering an obstacle, such as a creature, the wearer will make an attack with a bonus to hit and penetration, equal to +2 to hit and penetration for every 3 tiles they travel.

Saad Amus is one of few creatures belonging to the normally invisible [[Humanoids]] faction, which by default has -475 initial reputation with the player. As there is no way to increase reputation with this faction, Saad Amus will always be hostile and cannot be pacified through the reputation system. | Saad Amus is one of few creatures belonging to the normally invisible [[Humanoids]] faction, which by default has -475 initial reputation with the player.

Saad Amus (but not his clones) is considered a [[True Kin]], thus he can potentially install [[cybernetics]] (if [[domination|dominated]]), although he doesn't start with any. | |||

{{favilink| | {{favilink|Clone of Saad Amus|Clones of Saad Amus}} can occasionally be found randomly underground, preserved in cryochambers much like the one the original is found in. These clones are identical to Saad Amus himself, save for lacking a Flume-Flier of their own. | ||

* Sleep gas is very effective against Saad Amus. For example, cooking a meal with {{favilink|concentrated dreambeard gland paste}} (obtainable from merchants at the {{favilink|Six Day Stilt}}), and using the resultant [[Sleep Breath]] ability a few times to fill his chamber with sleep gas while the cryogenic mist dissipates can render him immobile and completely vulnerable to attack ([[:File:Saad_amus_sleep_gas.png|demo image]]). | |||

* According to the [[The Flume-Flier of the Sky-Bear#Recall Story|Song of the Sky-Bear]], {{Qud text|Saad Amus}} was the one to "shut the door" to [[Ptoh|Ptoh's]] prison. | |||
