Doing the following will train this stat (there probably other sources too). Note that ommel materials and the holy banana of Oily Orpiv are not listed; they have great positive effects on many attributes simultaneously. There are also equipment like boots of strength which increase a stat as long as they are worn.

There are several NPCs, eg. angels, mages, frogs, Kaethos, Haathbar, Richel Decos, etc. which may talk to you about randomized scientific topics if your stats are high enough. This event trains intelligence, wisdom and/or charisma, depending on the talker, but only a few times per one creature.

Teleportitis

Diseases

There are multiple diseases in IVAN. Diseases

Levitation

This state causes the player to float in the air.

ESP

This state allows the player to see nearby intelligent monsters through walls, smoke and other map objects that would normally hinder vision.

Infravision

Can see warm creatures in the dark or when they are invisible.

Invisible

Monsters can't see you, unless the monster has infravision and/or stands next to you.

Burden states

These are not techically states, as they are more fundamental. The player may become burdened, stressed, or overloaded. Moving around when burdened or stressed exercises leg strength, increasing the ability to carry more. A player may become overloaded usually as a result of losing a lot of strength, causing him to be unable to move unless he drops most of carried equipment.
