Sometimes Lamias make mistakes because they forget to sleep. These mistakes include a typo or two.
Anything with ** by it is currently a little... weird regarding the HP affected. A fix is already 
set to go in with our next reboot, however.

I know the stats on these seem.... really wonky, but I wanted to give them some pizazz while staying
fairly true to what Bart originally gave us years ago. I hope you find some use out of these items 
and give the Tarasque a fight or three.

Abilene Jailhouse:                                                              
- squished some backroom bugs (more fixes in the pipeline)                      
- the baton had to receive a massive face lift, I built it based on an          
  assumption which proved to be incorrect leaving a chance for game breaking    
  exploitation. Please note: It is no longer holdable, the speed factor has     
  been set to default and the spell fires less often. Oh and poison no longer   
  removes the spell. Sorry to pull this weapon back. This situation is proof    
  that a little knowledge is a dangerous thing :P                               
Sumer:                                                                          
- the Sumerian pectoral and bracer of protection are now templated

Abilene Jailhouse
- the jail collapse now kills everyone as it should
- the jail will not collapse more than once in quick succession
- items should be removed from the pits correctly when the jail loads and
  collapses
- the ball of energy is even more aggro #thanksvell
- mobs assist each other, essentially making them aggro slightly quicker

Dartmoor
- Moran, the giant is accessible once more

KSM
- a number of items had mitigation and max AC (no longer allowed in the spec)
  those have all had their AC corrected and templated, as result most had their
  rent dropped slightly.

Indust Paris:
- tweak to Spinoza's Ethics material/rent/ac

KZ:
- Items that were revamped to have +/-HP should have +/-HP now
  - a leg of the Beast
  - the holy garments of St Martha
- Another something or other was adjusted, so you can now
  "control the temperature" when required
  
  
Code:
- Heroic rescue will rescue people who aren't in a fighting position
  - Stunned, etc
- Some quests should no longer reduce XP rewards (such as History Bro)
  - Please note that we're working on getting the appropriate
    NPCs/areas adjusted to recognize this, so please still be
    aware of your rent when completing a quest for the time
    being. We won't reimb missed XP.
