Regarding changing object instances in memory, it is possible that some things are just pointers to the prototype, maybe descriptions or stats that are not expected to change. As long as you make sure you are only modifying that particular object's data, you shouldn't run into unexpected side-effects. I don't happen to remember what things in particular are stored for all objects in the prototype.
