• Broken Shield: Monster ignores armor or breaks shield
• Apple: Monster has food drain
• Sword: Monster attack is infused
• Circle: Monster has shield
• Asterisk: Monster has Soul Eater
• Plus Square: Monster has improved attribute
• Shield: Monster has immunnity
• Skull: Monster spawns something on death
