  Unable to reproduce that.  Note that skills command doesn't mean you can use 
the skill.  skills shows skills that you somehow know.  For example, lockpicking 
is a skill you can gain exp in and the like, and thus show up in 'skills', but 
not something you can use with a tool.

  Perhaps the correct method is to display a * or somethign for skills that you 
need tools to use (eg, don't know natively).

  Fixed.

  Should now be fixed.  In theory, you could get any spell tha would normally 
show up in that type of spellbook (eg, you couldn't get special quest spells). 
The problem was that it was re-generating the treasure each time the map got 
loaded.  This was actually true for any item that had randomitems in the apartment.

      Getting summoner exp is also difficult. I tried the pet monsters in a

  The number of spell schools perhaps needs to be reduced down to two, simply as 
splitting into 4 may have been doo many.

  The pet monsters should still keep attacking the mice - don't know why they 
would stop.
