Effects[]
This is an excerpt from Spl1-343.txt:
Zap monster[]
The monster becomes slow, or normal speed if fast. If you are engulfed by a vortex or air elemental, you are expelled. Some monsters may resist.
"You disrupt <monster>! A huge hole opens up..." (expelled) "<Monster> seems to be moving slower." (slowed, not swallowed)
Zap self[]
If you currently have the speed intrinsic, it is lost.
"You slow down" (not wearing speed boots) "Your quickness feels less natural." (wearing speed boots)
