Asking advices for a Spriggan Assassin
I just found this forum about stone soup, and I decided to register. I began to play stone soup about 3-4 months ago, and I've been able to go regularly (when I play seriously, every one of 5-6 games) afterD:10 for...one week :p
I've read many posts today and they have been very useful (thank you all

I started a Spriggan Assassin, but I think I did it the wrong way.
To present the character, it was (RIP) an assassin of ashenzari, and it died because of my...impatience (but that's not the point here, I don't think it would have lasted long whatsoever)
![Surprised :o](./images/smilies/icon_e_surprised.gif)
The questions I have are the following :
- I had many difficulties against undeads and big ugly bad creatures. I had a nice sword of holy wrath for the undeads, and the blowgun with a good supply of poisoned stings for the hydras & co, but as a "prized avatar of ashenzari", I...cursed my weapon, and had not a scroll of remove curse.
Should I keep going with Ashenzari (which I think was useful), and should I keep the weapon cursed?
- I read that in mid and late-game, it's nice to be able to cast some spells... I thought of the spell "Invisibility", but how can I train it without being able to cast any spell (I don't think this question is clear...). What spells are useful? And should I put my attribute points in Dex or in Int ?
- What are the principal skills I need to train? I think that stealth is the most important, so how to train it ?
Here are some of the infos of the character:
