  3272. level 8 spell of bookcasting, only granted by sif, animates a given number of books and lets you cast spells from them in the same turn (with doubled spell hunger cost and still mp cost), but gives div miscast if a book is knocked down and each book has an mp pool like rods
  3273. to make inner flame less mediocre due to distance, introduce level 4 hex/fire Heat Wave, which checks mr to lower speed, attack, ev, and sh, but check hd if the monster has inner flame, sticky flame, or is standing in conjured flame
  3274. summon storm! level 9 conjurations/summonings, summon/conjures smite-style completely randomized summons surrounding of tons of enemies to surround all those concievably hit, but only last until your next action; instantly shoots up vehumet piety to 6*
  3275. Deafness.

  3295. what's with this player/monster discrepancy? give HOPrs at 6* rHellfire, minor healing, and summon demon invocations, like orc high priests have
  3296. if polymorph other fails to hit due to rMut, it stills inflicts a single pip of glow

  3310. promising to code bad_ideas if one can come up with a really, really catchy name for them

  3314. the unique room in sprint III with joseph and jozef or sigmund and edmund is silly when it has frances and wiglaf in it, their names don't even sound similar! put boris and norris in there instead
    from the most difficult roguelike in existence, more monsters! monsters that attack you from anywhere on the floor, monsters that when dead heal other monsters, monsters that'd shoot poison arrows from across the floor, executionerrockworms, and jellies that eat egos
  3315. and of course the best of monsters from that game, the monster with smite-targeted "make player do almost any action possible" spells that repeats itself for hundreds of turns at a time
  3316. magic dart of dispersal

  3337. while golems can be quite the interesting aggravations with their rediculous resists and defenses, they're usually a distraction at best. replace some of them with statue-formed character races, so that they really hit like a ton of bricks and can cast some form of spells too
  3338. while it's appropiate that tomb has plenty of traps, it's boring for them all to be standard traps: add in better cliche ones, like shafts that rop you to hatch-connected-only anaconda pits, use the new boulder-beetle-that-dashes-like-a-boulder in corridors, and have some statues suddenly become archer statues when the rune's picked up
  3339. natural form: turns centaurs into horses, merfolk into fish, naga into snakes, kobolds into rodents, draconians into dragons, and demonspawn into demons
  3340. break the new skills system code in half just so that wizmode can ramp up earth to 255 and cast floor-wide shatter over and over again, again

  3363. mothman unique: fast as bats, teleports away on sight and stalks like a wandering mushroom until you reach 50% health so as to swoop in and hit hard with vampiric attacks
  3364. the learnaean hydra still isn't enough; implement anata, the snake with a thousand heads
  3365. chaos dragons: have chaos branded claws, seething chaos breath, randomly invisibly change resistances like tiamat, provide randart dragon armours when skinned. worshipping xom lets you summon them with summon dragon!
  3366. nerf paralyze at least slightly by preserving all statuses besides paralysis at their duration at the moment of paralysis
  3367. change all sources of paralyze to petrify
  3368. yaktaurs and centaurs are a lot of pressure on the average earlyearly character: introduce easy, earlier ranged packs, with sheeptaurs, which have slings, rattaurs, which have darts, and newttaurs, which just throw stones

  3391. necromancy spell, horrorshow: smite-animates a corpse with demented spirits who disgustingly twist it into a macabre grotesquery, which casts mass confusion, fear, and paralyze through mutilating itself (doesn't effect mindless, J, G, x/X, hexes are much stronger if corpse is same genus). the fun of animated corpses, without any experience drain!
  3392. wanderer buff: always starts with 1 in every skill
  3393. anti-knowledge brand: makes you randomly forget things when hit
  3394. replace dragon form with mythical form: draconians still become dragons, but demonspawn become demons, octopodes become krakens, and kenku become rocs!
