*The [[Deep Machine Tunnels snowglobe]] drops once per day.
*The "mesmerizing movement-without-movement" stuns the monster for 2-3 rounds.
:*While the stun is in effect, each round (including the first) will display the message:
:<center>Your foe remains mesmerized by <name>'s incomprehensible nature.</center>
:*The last round of combat the stun is active will display the message:
:<center><Name>'s mesmerizing effect on your foe seems to have worn off at this point.</center>

*MP restored is equal to 10x the Machine Elf's weight (or enough to max your MP, if less).
*Monster delevel appears to be 20%.
*First-round HP and MP restoration effects will not apply if the respective value is full, first-round deleveling will not occur if the monster's attack is lower than your moxie (needs spading).
