		+	I always play wizards, so always start with a cloak of magic resistance. I can practically guarantee that this will be the first item a nymph will steal, even if I am carrying dozens of items. (Of course, that makes her immune to my force bolt attacks.) Is this in the code? If so, it should be mentioned in our article.
