Note: The Silver Dragon Scale Mail (which reflects all ray and breath attacks) came from my own pet, Skippy Roo. To be specific, Skippy Roo III. After one of the many times when he was killed in combat, he dropped a set of silver dragon scales on the floor next to his corpse. I took the scales, then zapped the corpse with a wand of undead turning, just like usual, and Skippy came back from the dead. I kept the armor for myself.
Keeping a pet can be frustrating. Skippy had a habit of attacking monsters he couldn't handle. I probably resurrected him a dozen times with the wand, and that was only when he left a corpse to resurrect...
Skippy Roo the First was a blue dragon, and he got disintegrated. Skippy Roo II was a silver dragon, so disintegration was no longer a concern ... but he got clobbered when I hit him by accident with Firebrand while confused, and he left no corpse. I rode Skippy Roo III all the way up through the four elemental planes, but on the Astral Plane he got scared, then ate a doppelganger corpse and polymorphed into a hellhound, and was immediately disintegrated by a nearby black dragon. Eventually another silver dragon was randomly generated, so I put the saddle on him, and named him Skippy Roo IV.
The only thing that really connects them all is that fireproof saddle. I had to wish for it specially, to make it fireproof, because Skippy Roo the First kept fighting with fire elementals and getting his saddle burned off and destroyed. Not a good thing when you're riding him and he's flying over water, or lava, or a pit.
Status of the saddled silver dragon named Skippy Roo IV (lawful): Level 22 HP 159(176) AC -1, tame, fast, invisible. Contents of the bag of holding named Ye Sacque Of Rome: Amulets an uncursed amulet of life saving an uncursed amulet of life saving a cursed amulet of life saving Comestibles 4 uncursed food rations Scrolls an uncursed scroll of enchant armor a blessed scroll of enchant armor a cursed scroll of genocide an uncursed scroll of earth 3 uncursed scrolls of teleportation Spellbooks a blessed spellbook of finger of death Potions an uncursed potion of polymorph Rings an uncursed ring of slow digestion a blessed ring of levitation a cursed ring of free action an uncursed ring of conflict Wands a wand of secret door detection (0:14) a blessed wand of undead turning (0:5) a wand of teleportation (0:8) a blessed wand of polymorph (0:3) a wand of lightning (0:2) Tools a can of grease (0:10) an uncursed mirror
I accumulated a whole pile of spellbooks of course, but "finger of death" was the only one important enough that I took it with me out of the dungeon. If I'd forgotten that spell, I would have been in major trouble on the Astral Plane.

There would have been two wishes left in that wand, but I wished for a boulder on the Astral Plane, blocking Death and Pestilence into a guard room while I went about my business. Unfortunately a storm giant came along and picked the boulder up, then threw it at me in the hall, releasing Death and Pestilence from their prison.

There were plenty more artifact weapons piled up on Dungeon level 3, but these were the most valuable. Weapons are heavy!

Well, actually there's one more nethack-related thing to do. I've written a very long story, retelling my first nethack ascesion (this here is my second). After I correct a few details, I'll post that in a more permanent location, and then I'll really be done with this nethack business. Whew!

No, seriously, Cocoa programming. And I have a bunch of other small projects that keep me tied down as well.
