# When this item is applied, mice in the 5x5 square around player are absorbed up to a certain
# number. If no mouse, will generate a friendly mouse whose power is based on the number of absorbed mice
# to this point.
# Only up to a certain number of mice can be absorbed, till the object spits an enemy mouse.
