Re: Last DOM-I PBEM party
The risk of feeblemind is 75% IIRC for all astral mages (the only ones able to enter the site) except starspawn priests. I believe they have a 10-20% chance of feeblemind. The stargazer only has a 5% chance IIRC. This chance does not decrease with skill, but the power of the monsters summoned increase with higher summoning skill (not related to experience). Summoning takes several turns. Not sure if skill affects the time spent.
To sum up: put a starspawn priest in the Void Gate. Get monsters of increasing power. Suddenly your priest goes insane and you will have to put a new one in the Gate (or cure his insanity). When you get the stargazer put him in the gate if your current summoner goes whacky, but do not switch until this happens as the stargazer is not skilled when he arrives (only less likely to go insane).
If you are not R'lyeh and have captured the Void Gate: Avoid it unless you feel like spending lots of gold on insane astral mages.
