Monster Corpse Effects

How to Read the List
Colons (:) symbolize conditions; basically read as 'if (thing before the colon) is true, then (do stuff after colon). This is often a percentage chance, but it can be other things as well. Conditions can stack (meaning multiple things have to be true).
Stat increases (or decreases) listed by themselves (Such as '+1Pe') without parentheses mean you ALWAYS gain that stat when eating the corpse (provided any conditions are true).
Stat increases listed in parentheses (like '(+1St)') have a chance to gain that stat, depending on your current amount in that stat. There is a chart following the corpse list that shows your chance to gain.
Speed increases are all done the same way. I listed them in parentheses because they are also harder to gain the higher it is. (There is a speed chart as well.)
Commas (,) separate gains/checks. You gain (or have a chance to gain if there are conditions) everything in the list that's separated with a comma.
Semicolons (;) denote mutually exclusive checks. This means you can only get 1 possibility out of the series... I try to use square brackets to make it more obvious what is in a series.
Poison effects have 2 numbers (unlike other status effects) - the first is how much (Da)mage the poison does and the second is how often ((Fr)equency) that it happens.
Most bad effects will stack on top of others. If you're confused already, and you eat something which confuses you, that amount is added to how many turns you'll stay confused.
Pluses (+) and minuses (-) mean you gain or lose an intrinsic.
'Trains' means that it trains the stat, so that you have a chance to gain it over time (like being burdened trains strength).
Exclamation points (!) simply mean 'not'.
I added curly brackets to the end of some of the checks to make it plain and obvious what is the highest level of the stat that can be reached by eating the corpse in question. This should make it a little easier to understand for anyone who doesn't understand the 'code-like' parts.
Examples
Kobold Shaman: +1Ma, [Cursed:5%:+2d3PP; Uncursed:25%:+2d3PP; Blessed:50%:+2d3PP], Sickens 20d8
- Kobold Shamans always give you +1 Mana when eaten, then there is a 5/25/50 percent chance (depending on the C/U/B status) of gaining 2d3 (average 4) Power points. Then you become sick; you basically lose 1 sickness point every 20 turns so 20d8 * 20 is how many turns you'll be sick for unassisted.
Chaos Viper: (+1Dx), +PoisonResistance, (+1 Speed), Poisons 8d5Da_3d3Fr, Corrupts 10d200
- First, you have a chance to gain 1 dex depending on what your dex is already at. Second, you always gain poison resistance. After that you have a chance to gain 1 speed, then you're heavily poisoned (on average it will start out dealing 24 damage every 6 turns, though the fact that it gives poison resistance will weaken the effect instantly). Finally, it corrupts you for an average of 1005 which is about 1 corruption worth.
Ghul: ![ParalyzationResistant]:Paralyzes 2d8
- This one is pretty simple. If you are paralyzation resistant, nothing special happens. Otherwise, you're paralyzed for 2d8 turns.
Ettin: [[St < 8]:62.5%:(+1St); [St < 16]:60%:(+1St); [St < 20]:58.3%:(+1St); [St < 24]:16.7%:(+1St); [St = 24]:14.3%:(+1St)] {St up to 25}
- Whooo boy. Thomas sure made the giant-folk complicated, didn't he? The code doesn't actually look like this, but this was the simplest (believe it or not) way I found to display the effect. Notice that the curly brackets at the end give you the big picture: They can raise your strength up to 25, no higher. Every check has a chance to raise your strength depending on what it already is, and the higher it is the less chance you have to raise it. Note also that the stat increases are in parentheses so the actual chance to raise from 24 to 25 is a mere 8%.
You'll see "[Cursed:5%:+2d3PP; Uncursed:25%:+2d3PP; Blessed:50%:+2d3PP], 16.7%:+1Ma" a lot, because that is an effect all spellcasting monsters share.
