Sigmund raped me once or twice from afar with some purple magic ****.
You shouldn't die too much from poison as a Mountain Dwarf Fighter. Make sure to be fully rested before doing any exploring. The key to Crawl is to always think about how you can maximize your survival chances. You have to think ahead, use resources wisely and avoid dangerous situations.
Check out the links on the crawl.akrasiac.org front page(the best resource is the Henzell bot in ##crawl on freenode) if you want to read more about the game. The in-game documentation is good as well.
Sigmund is a whore. Given how early you find him, he is the deadliest monster in the game. Luckily he doesn't show up every game.
TBH, you're going to die numerous times before you win, esp if you aren't a roguelike vet. The mean winrate on CAO is ~.5%.
