Wisdom is an attribute in NetHack.

Effects

Healers, Knights, Monks, Priests, and Valkyries use Wisdom to cast spells. Wisdom is not particularly important to other classes, though it affects how fast your power regenerates (which is fairly important for roles like the Wizard in particular) and how much power you gain when leveling up.

Wisdom is one of the easiest stats to maximize, with many activities that exercise it, including engraving Elbereth (with correct capitalization) and successful searching. It can also be increased by sleeping with a foocubus. ("You will always remember the <foo>cubus...")
