My impression is that Flytraps in 5.3 derive considerable strength from any
attempt to move away from them once you are stuck. I have never been killed
by a flytrap that I attacked furiously as soon as I ran into it; I have
been wiped out by several whose grasp I tried to escape. Is there reality
in this or has that elaborate random-number generator called "rogue"
produced yet another superstition ... ?
