In ''Caves of Qud'', there are a total of 52 Steam achievements awarded for completing certain tasks. Of these 52, 20 are hidden, meaning that neither the requirements for completion nor the achievement's icon are displayed until after the player has completed them. These hidden achievements are displayed further down, in a separate section from the non-hidden achievements.

Note that many achievements, such as [[Achievements#On The Rocks|On The Rocks]], will kill the player. In these cases, using [[Precognition]] or, if you are [[True Kin]], a {{Favilink|sphynx salt injector}} before dying will still award the achievement.

Killing {{Favilink|Svenlainard, Trophy Hunter}} is, for obvious reasons, an expedient. He is not affiliated with the Village of {{favilink|Kyakukya}}, so you do not need to worry about others joining in the fight unless you have area of effect moves. However, [[Domination|dominating]] him and forcing him to drop his swords also works.
