9-.
I think level feeling shouldn't reflect in-depth items or monsters.
To the character, they're par for the course, so nothing special. (An
argument could be made about the character loving certain types of
items or despising types of monsters, though.)
I think customizing level feeling isn't vanilla.
Btw, the reason level feelings are im****tant are if there's an
artifact (or ego, sufficiently early) laying on the floor. Or Godly
Insights at 50', curse that crash!
