	Clare, what you wanted to quaff is a "restore strength" potion.
	This returns you strength to its highest natural level.
	This is used to combat attacks of A's that can wipe you out.
	Raise strength will do just that, but when the giant ant hits,
	your strength reduces.

	Regarding 18/01: The original scale runs 3 to 18 for strength.
	In DnD quaffing an gain strength would have no effect once
	you were at 18. This has been extended in Advanced DnD which
	adds a another scale once you go beyond 18. This scale runs
	from 18/01 to 18/00(after counting up to 18/99). This is the
	strength scale used in in hack and rogue.
