Requires winning the game
| Name | Description | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| ...And throw away the key | Close the Chaos Gate | |
| Beloved by fate | Win the game with a character by letting fate decide | |
| Consistent believer | Win without ever changing Alignment | Changes within neutral, lawful or chaotic alignment do not influence on this; going from L+ to LN is okay |
| Everything for this moment | Usurp the throne of Chaos | Ultimate Chaos God Ending (Chaotic Ultra ending) |
| I'm bad... But I feel good! | Achieve the Ordinary chaos god ending | |
| Neutralizer | Slay the Chaos God during your crusade of Balance | You need to kill Andor Drakon while neutral and not wielding Trident of the Red Rooster, forfeiting Ultra ending at the last moment |
| Magic hater | Win without casting spells | |
| Plant hater | Win without using herbs, plants or any related skills | Herbs, logs, Gardening, Woodcraft and maybe various types of bread disable the achievement; apples and melons were reported to not disable the achievement |
| Plutonium man | Complete the game after killing 95% of every type of non-unique monster in the game | Currently bugged and unlocks at a lower percentage |
| Revered martyr | Slay the Chaos God during your crusade of Order | You need to kill Andor Drakon while neutral and not wielding Trident of the Red Rooster, forfeiting Ultra ending at the last moment |

| The Grey Hawk | Become Avatar of Balance | Neutral Ultra ending |

| Yep, all done! | Leave the Drakalor Chain after having closed the Chaos Gate |
Tricky ones
| Name | Description | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Avatar of thieves | Steal an item worth at least 6666 gold | Must be base cost, not a shop price. The only confirmed item which works is an Amulet of resurrection, although some other artifacts should be enough |
| Give and take | Buy stuff with a total value of 90196 gold pieces with one character | May be achieved by selling and re-buying the same stuff repeatedly; the best way to achieve the exact sum is selling rocks. 90169 is a reference to the sum collected by the ADOM Resurrection campaign. |
| Globetrotter | Visit every town in Ancardia | Towns are Dwarftown, Terinyo, Lawenilothehl, High Mountain Village and the ruined city. Reportedly this achievement triggers in a buggy way; exact reasons are not known, but it is suspected that the problem my involve Dwarftown being generated at certain depths. Either player needs to see all possible incarnations of Dwarftown, or just on a particular depth. |
| Iron man | Retrieve the Chaos Sceptre in the most straightforward way possible, then leave the game | You can't enter any other location except for Wilderness and the Infinite Dungeon. Going up stairs or away from downstairs is allowed. |
| Ocean's Eleven | Successfully rob the Casino | If you end attacking the shopkeeper before stealing it will not count. The easiest way is to block the doorway with a pet and swap with it later on. |
| Eternium man | Level up to level 50 in Small cave without visiting any other location | Since Wilderness is allowed, this can be achieved similarly to Steel Man — only finishing in the Small Cave (though it's arguably against the spirit of classical ADOM challenges). Proper way to achieve it is so far unknown. |
| Lithium Man | Complete the game without visiting any locations except the Caverns of chaos and the Tower of Eternal Flames | One needs to avoid the Ogre cave, Fungal Caves, Blue Dragon Caves, Heavenly Area, and either the Animated Forest or the Dwarven Halls. |
| Steel man | Level up to level 50 in the Wilderness without entering any location | Typically player raises wilderness DL by reading scrolls of danger, scums for ring of djinni summoning and wishes for 'Emperor Moloch'; killing the resulting horde of greater molochs gives enough experience to reach level 50 |
