Crystal balls can be used to find which level any of the unique items is currently on. Unspecified how it would show different branches or if this works on items you have never seen (if it did, you could use it to look for the Amulet and figure out how deep the dungeon is).

You can use a crystal ball to search for an artifact. It will not tell you where it is, but it will show you a “cloudy” image of the artifact if it already exists, and an “empty” image if it does not yet exist. Maybe also tell the player explicitly “It means this artifact is/is not anywhere in the dungeon right now.”

Premonition system: under various conditions (crystal balls, clairvoyance, dreaming while you sleep, the Oracle) you can receive a premonition of something that will appear later in your game (this could be almost anything: a monster, object, dungeon feature, special room, etc) which then has a very high chance of generating subsequently.

Crystal balls can accept words instead of symbols, such as “dragon” or “trap”.
