Yup, We love that game, too.  :)  I always played the Boy and he played the
Girl (neither of us like the Sprite. :) ).  We have one game that we maxed out
levels, spells, and weapons.  :)  I love the altered spell graphics.  :)

Well, early runs of the game had a bug that would screw up your inventory if
you sketched Gau on the Veldt (after he returns from a Leap).  You can lose
items by doing this, and it seems somewhat random as to what you get, but you
can end up with some amazing amounts of items.  :)  We got thousands of Dirks,
a bunch of Gem Boxes, Economizers, and Scimitars, among other things.  :)  We'd
just idly throw dirks at annoying enemies.  :)
