How's this for an unusual death?

  What do you want to engrave?
  Elbereth
  The unicorn hits! --more--
  You die... --more--
  The unicorn comes and takes the 940 zorkmids you owed him. --more --
  Rest In Peace -- mann, killed on level 3 by a unicorn.

It appears that shopkeepers stay angry and nasty even after being
polymorphed.  I'm not sure if the unicorn inherited the shopkeeper's ability
to ignore Elbereth, or if unicorns can always do that.  At any rate, I've
never been hit by a unicorn before, much less killed by one!
