Code:
New Features:
- Auto Newbie
  The purpose of this new auto command is to
  educate newbies and protect from accidental
  death.  While active on both PCs, those of
  Amateur status can't attack or be attacked by
  any other player.  Defaults to ON at login.
- Fort/Reflex/Will Saving Throw System
  This new saving throw system has only three
  categories instead of the five of the old
  system.  Example spells for each category:
  * Fortitude: Plague, Petrify, Finger of Death
  * Reflex: Color Spray, Flamestrike, Fireball
  * Willpower: Dominate, Summon, Dispel Magic
- Spirit Doll (spell)
  This spell for shamans creates a doll from
  a dead creature's bodypart.  The doll grants
  certain bonuses based on victim race and is 
  necessary for a full voodoo.  The doll can
  be used multiple times before wearing out.
- Fury (skill)
  Once trained, this barbarian skill may take
  affect at the same time as berserk.  Berserk
  healing is increased, bonuses to fortitute
  and willpower saves are granted and attack
  speed with all weapons is increased.
- Specialize (skill)
  Once trained, mercs may specialize in the
  use of a weapon.  This weapon is a specific
  weapon type such as broadsword, not swords
  in general.  Weapon specialization increases
  speed and accuracy with all weapons of that
  type.  A 2nd type can be selected at Expert.
- New Targeting Shortcuts
  * Helf can be used in place of half-elf
  * Delf can be used in place of deep-elf
