Extolling Virtues

[HugoTheGreat2011]

MITZE - any more updates on Virtues? Thanks

[MITZE]

I haven't forgotten about this Hugo, it's just that RL's been doing a number on me lately; it's been leaving me with either no time or energy or in bad mental places recently.

For some reason Mysticism is referred to in the code as VIRTUE_ENCHANTMENT instead of by its actual name like all the other virtues (i.e. VIRTUE_COMPASSION or VIRTUE_JUSTICE).

There's a joke somewhere in mysticsm not directly affecting the mechanics of the game.
