\f0\fs24 \cf0 How should special items work?\
\
	I should make SpecialItem a class and then include several subclasses beneath it.  When equip, drop, and store modify bonuses they can check if the item is an instance of a particular subclass.\
\
The subclasses (so far):\
	Shield\
		- provides an ac bonus\
		- has no special action\
	Wand\
		- doesn't provide a bonus, contains a reusable spell\
	Potion\
		- doesn't provide a bonus, it disappears when used\
		- this should function outside of combat as well\
		- there should be a get potion option in comb\
	Staff\
		- adds a static bonus\
		- contains multiple reusable spells}
