When going up, the monster table reverses itself.  I.e. if
a monster starts on level 3 and dies off at level 13, then
it will appear at level 13 on the way up and die off at level
3.  This means that once you are past level 18 (Umber Hulks)
on the way up, things get much easier (by then, you should
be able to deal with Xorns and Trolls)
