Baboons are a faction in Caves of Qud. Baboons are notable for throwing small stones as a weapon. All baboons become terrified for 2 rounds if they are hostile to a player equipped with a neck-ring and come within 5 tiles of the player. They primarily inhabit the desert canyons and hills but may also be found in other locations.
