I never found any source of magic resistance in the game, and eventually got banished to the abyss from an elf in vaults. Trog's hand does give MR, and I used it a plenty of times, but I didn't have it up for that elf sorcerer. Not enough piety to use it for everything
I did fairly well in abyss, but eventually found a lich, who confused me, again I have no magic resistance, and by the time the confuse wore off there wasn't much I could do. My kingdom for a curing potion! A summoned shadow fiend had already tormented off most of my hp. Quaffed speed, summoned a brother, tried to walk backwards...but the lich was also hasted, and then to add insult to injury, summoned an executioner. I wasn't going anywhere...
The RNG also tried to kill me in snake:5, where in a bad situation, I used teleport, to land in the rune chamber in a much worse position. So I teleported again, and landed...in the rune chamber. Really
Fortunately the fourth teleport was the charm, and landed me in cleared territory. In what would have been a perfectly fair death, I completely botched an encounter with Vashnia, and should have died, but managed to teleport out. Here I was quaffing curing potions while waiting for teleport, which is probably part of the reason I didn't have any left...
