* Describe monsters with hellfire resistance (imps) as "extremely
resistant to fire" when viewing them. * Don't equip Venom Mages with a short sword anymore since Sting is really powerful and getting a weapon to poison is not that hard. git-svn-id: https://crawl-ref.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/crawl-ref/trunk@9211 c06c8d41-db1a-0410-9941-cceddc491573
