Updates to the online game, The Well

I got excited that my new local server is working, so I made some changes to The Well, to make it more visually interesting and streamlined, as well as fix some minor bugs.

One of the main things I did was add pictures to five of the non-monster encounters. Also, I took away some boring text, and added more informational text that shows up when you hover over a monster's special ability. Overall, the encounter screens are prettier and more streamlined.

Another thing I did was change an encounter, the altar, that showed up on some fixed levels, so that has a random chance of appearing every 5 levels of The Well. The overall chance is about the same, but this is more exciting.
