Special patches of land.

Hey!
I don't know how exactly they're called - I mean those things which exist on kinda each level - Font of Life, Whistling Vortex, Antimagic Bush (can't recall others). Now that I played ToME for like 100 hours, I used them as my strategic chance just TWICE, and both it was the Font of Life at the Trollmire when I was under 10 level and needed some regen.
There're usually just 1-2 of them per level and sometimes even there's none, so it's barely worth to go to the closest and use its strategic properties.
I suggest to 'buff' them in these ways:
- randomize their properties: e.g. Font of Life regen can vary;
- add the pure negative ones: so they work like debuff on you so that you better leave them even before fighting monsters;
- multiply either their area or their number (I like the number more): for example, about 10 such zones would be worthy to even use them.
- your suggestions???
Suming up, the special patches of the ground do have potential to become one more layer of awesomeness while playing, but by now they're kinda raw
Please, tell me what you think about this.
P.S. Just realized that it supposed to be in "Suggestions"
