A few things you can do:
When your stat is just below the marker (24), use a lot of the relevant herb, and you can get multiple increases.
Using sickness lets you get about 5 points more.
Using starvation, or starvation + sickness, lets you get up to about 20 points more.
St is hard to train passed 18, but you can use sickness/starvation + corpses (eg. ogres) to go higher.
Get the apish corruption. It is awesome and trains St and To like crazy (abuses Wi, Dx, Le).

Precrown gives a random artifact based on the random artifact list.
Crown gives an artifact based on your class list. Many of these artifacts cannot be received any other way (although they aren't, on average, any better than the randoms). Crowning also gives a random elemental immunity, a blessing, and halves the food consumption due to artifacts. Chaotic also gives about 4 corruptions.

Postcrown is the same as precrown, except it only happens after you've already been crowned. Rules are otherwise identical.

Yes, otherwise you would be precrowned.

Nothing happens until you get to LN or CN. Then many bad things will happen.

Died by death ray damage. They do something like 30-300. Multiple resistances apparently don't help. Try to avoid getting hit by death rays (alertness skill and high speed help).
Hoping to win with every class, doomed. Archer, Barbarian, Bard, Beastfighter, Druid, Elementalist, Farmer, Fighter, Monk, and ULE Priest down.
