          A question or unknown quantity.

          or perhaps a scroll?

              Absolutely right - careless of me. OP edited.

                              Beats me. I have no clue what that list represents, and without any point of reference I can't solve that.

                              What's that all about?

                                  Well since it's way past xmas, I guess I can give a hint... check monster.txt, it should be obvious what the answer is.
