 5) Introduce quality-of-life features
     * Speed up the pace of the game, auto-identifying anything that is umambiguous
     * Give the player access to in-game object and monster lookup information
-6) Shorten the endgame
-    * Gehennom is much shorter, the wizards tower is accessible from the Castle level
     * Allow players to enchant weapons to +13 so they can clear through the hordes with ease (it still won't be easy!)

+6) Emphasize role and race uniqueness
     * By not allowing quest artifacts to be wished for, each role has to rely on their own and play around it's powers.
     * Put in measures to make the roles feel different or have noticeable strengths and weakness that carry through the entire game.
     * Racial bonuses and penalties for armors
     * New special mechanics for roles.

Forging and gem alchemy recipes are readily available in the object lookup which shows all related recipes for any item.

    * Don't introduce any new #extended commands (other than wiz-mode tools)
    * Don't change any monster letters
