Legendary fixes & changes

- Damage: Changed to work (increase damage against opponents)
- Stealth: Changed to work (gives a bonus to invisibility, use VANISH to trigger
and VISIBLE to turn off)

Commands
- Casket Healing: Now usable on all undead; also generates a message to the
target
- Recon: (1) Added saving throw to allow target to know someone is observing
them; (2) If existing saving throw to recon target fails, instead of getting
no information, you'll still get the summary of information, but it will be
randomly inaccurate.
- Vanish: When used to "gate" you no longer need to surround your target with
quotes (e.g. "vanish lesser one" should work)
- Get: "get <pile of coins>" should skip the item count check
- Chant: Changed to respect changeform
Magic
- Imbue Undead: (1) Messages target; (2) Always requires a component to cast
- Punishment: Changed to decrease instead of improve Armor Class
- Sleep: Changed order of "already sleeping" check and the saving throw so the
messaging makes way more sense.
- multiple spells: Failed range check no longer says to "use murder" (which is
a command we no longer have).
Combat
- Fixed problem (or one of them) with victim's health continuing to message after
combat is stopped (due to death or flight).
- Miraelle mod: if you already have the spell her mod wants to cast on you,
you should get an exp bonus instead
Object
- Adhesive: Added "wear off" message. Note: Any skill or spell that can
"wear off" of an object can easily have a message added. if you know of
others that are missing, please BUG them.
- New Runestones: 3 Legendary Lessons, each with a different experience
multipliers (2x, 3x, 4x) for experience gains by Legendary items. Only
one can be used at time.

quest
