// Memory Cells:
// Cell 0 - How creature moves.
// 0 - If 0, wander randomly.
// 1 - Stands still until a target appears.
// 2 - Completely immobile, even if target appears.
// Cell 1,2 - Stuff done flag. If both 0, nothing. Otherwise when each of these dies,
// flag is incremented.
// Cell 3 - Dialogue node to start with if talked to. if left at 0, this
// character doesn't talk.
// Cell 4 - Number of these things to die before a special item is granted. If 0, no
// special item is granted.
// Cell 5 - Special item to grant on death.
// Cell 6 - Number of dice for poison damage
// Cell 7 - Size of dice for poison damage
