    EGO
    
    Ego is a property of the more powerful armor and weapons, reflecting their
    tendency to prefer masters whose power reflects their own.  As long as
    an item is no stronger than its user, ego has no effect.  If the item _is_
    stronger than the user, the effect is variable, depending on the item:
    
    For an armor, the effect is that the item may not protect the user as it
    otherwise might.
    For a weapon, special properties of the weapon may become unreliable or
    not function at all, and the weapon may hit less effectively as it resists
    being wielded.
    
    As a rule, most things that make an item more powerful also increase its ego;
    weight (and occasionally other disadvantages) reduces ego.
    
    Your resistance to magic provides you with the means to assert
    control over an items ego.
