You can't pick up anything, hit anyone, get hit by anyone (although the monsters do follow you around), or do much of anything, except move around, search, use magic, and (!!!) walk through walls. The potion wears off after a while, and I was out in the middle of solid rock when I re-materialized. I can't go anywhere. I tried reading a scroll of light (the corridor glows and then fades), quaffing haste self (no help), and doing whatever else there was. I guess I'll have to see if starvation is possible in 7.0. (It isn't in 3.7.1; I once dropped a scare monster scroll, waited for 32767 or until I got bored with fainting, and still couldn't starve.) Also, a Z was following me around until I walked out through the wall. It stopped moving at a doorway, and became a &. I did /& to find out what that meant, and & is an unidentified character.
