 There's a lot of room for modification. You could make an [[orc priest]] that only uses [[Smiting]], or a [[bat]] with the same spells (at the same power!) as an [[orb of fire]]. However, there can only be one monster type per team, unless you specify a band or random monster - such as place:(location), which calls for a random from that place.

 '''The Arena''' is an automated fight mode where two groups of non-player combatants can be specified and set against one another. It is available in offline builds: to access it, [http://crawl.develz.org/wordpress/downloads download] and install the latest version of Crawl and select 'The Arena' from the main menu. It can be an entertaining way to get back at that monster that just killed you and ended your game (i.e. pitch The Royal Jelly against 99 pandemonium lords and watch it diiiie...).
