Red spice

Red spice is one of the four spices dropped by Hellrats in Evil Dave's basement. If red spice is used in a stew, it becomes a Spicy stew, which can temporarily raise the stats of Attack, Strength, Defence, Ranged and Magic. The amount it can raise these stats depends on how many doses used in the stew (between 1 and 3). Each dose of spice can cause the boost to either increase or decrease a stat by -2 to +2. Once all 4 doses are used, it becomes an Empty spice shaker, which cannot be used for anything.
