Hi

A problem is the -20 (i think?) paralyze malus for mostrai.
It makes mostrai a "forbidden" god for > level 25 players who hand combat.

In first line, you can't play him as fighter. If i run in
a crowded area of higher monsters, i need speed. Run in, hack some,
watch for hp and run out when start to be low.

With the paralyze malus, you can count, that all x attacks you stay
frozen = you get killed.

There is no real difference in paralyze 50 or 90. 50 kills you (ok, thats
not true so, so you got the point) in 5 of 10 runs, 90 in 1 of 10.

But you will make 10 runs in a minute, means you get killed with 50 some
seconds
fewer than with 90.

Don't understand me false: Killing means killing. Try to run in areas with
higher level
monsters (dreads,skulls or vampires for example) with non paralyze. In all
cases there
comes an point where you stay frozen and then you die.

The bad point is, that you can't do anything!!

Confusion can be healed instand. by fast hitting >invoke cure confusion<.
But by paralyze? When it happens, you can't do anything. No chance to heal.

So, better to make monstrai -slow and -confusion or allow priest spells when
you get paralyzed.
