The monsters come equipped with their weapon and spells. Monsters cannot wear armor, so a special level-up item is included as a unique purple spellbook. You will recieve this spellbook when you leave the prison for the first time. Do not lose it. In order for the monsters to retain their items and spells in the Dryad prison, the item strip remover mod was created.
This mod cannot be used with any other mods that modify player races (Elys Succubus mod, for example). If you remove this mod, your character may become invalidated. If you use other mods that modify the rules file, you will need to temporarily remove them to use the item strip remover. Once you've started a new game and saved, it should be safe to remove the item strip remover mod.
