Levitation
What does levitation do? If I recall correctly, it allows one to walk over water without drowning, right? Shouldn't it also allow one to walk over lava without getting burned? It's a bit annoying that every time I use my fire breath I create lava and end up burning up all my scrolls passing over it, even though I'm levitating. Possessing a baby multi-hued dragon, at the moment, and levitation seems to be a natural bonus in this form.

Re: Levitation
It does a few things:
- prevents damage from trap doors (but notably doesn't prevent you from actually dropping a level, unlike most other variants)
- prevents slipping on icy floors
- allows you to cross "dark pit" terrain
- prevents drowning on "deep water"
Re: Levitation
Thanks for the info. I'll have to see if I can figure out a way to hack in the ability to go over lava without taking damage. Knowing that it prevents slipping on ice means I can finally go visit the Helcaraxe. I've wanted to check that place out forever, but it's just such a pain with the slipping all over the place.
Any suggestions as to which monster I should possess when it comes to the submerged ruins so that I can breathe underwater and still have some decent combat abilities/spells? That's another place I've always wanted to check out.

Re: Levitation
I'm pretty sure the Watcher in the Water breathes water and it's a nice body. I think it doesn't have a lantern slot so make sure you have light from somewhere else.
Re: Levitation
The helm you get from one of the quests has random bonuses. Breathe underwater is common. Then all you need is a head to wear it on.
