Re: New Ashenzari
I don't see how applying your jewellery's bad effects to enemies fit in this theme.
He knows the inner working of those bad effects, and can turn them against your enemies. Like "Dark Patrick and Cromachy of the crows", Ashenzari can teach you how to decieve the curses. And suddenly "this will make you want to EAT, EAT and EAT" becomes ring of gourmet...
Same with random effects - what is random to their creator and normal characters is very logical and predictable to one with divine knowledge. So you can select what effect you'd receive from wand of random effects, or select the mutation you want from potion of mutation/demonspawn levelup, etc.
P.S. Xom would hate such an Ashenzari with passion!
