A woman in a gray jumpsuit -- she looks a bit like Geena Davis, but with different-colored hair -- is adjusting the cable connections from her scientific-looking backpack to her strange metal gloves as you approach. The logo on her shoulder patch appears to depict a ghost being hit with a large cartoon boxing glove.
"So you're a... ghostpuncher?" you ask her.
"That's correct," she replies. She clicks a knob on the inside of her wrist, and her gloves light up with arcing plasma across the knuckles.
"Is that effective?" you ask. "Punching ghosts?"
"Not just ghosts," she says, and you quickly dive to one side as her glowing fist crackles past your ear.
Hit Message(s):
The ghostpuncher punches you in the <elbow>, incidentally evicting a small ghost. No wonder you'd been feeling a little run-down lately! After you're done twitching from the voltage, you should thank her. Eek! Ow! Argh!
She punches you in the side of the head, and the electricity from her glove scrambles your lumber for a walnut. Ugh! Ouch! Oof!
A green cartoon ghost appears out of nowhere and vomits green ooze all over you. "Ugh! Hey! Aren't you going to punch that thing?" you ask.
"Can't," she says. "The marketing department won't let me touch that one." Argh! Oof! Eek! (spooky damage)
She punches you so hard, your soul flies right out of your body. Then she punches your soul so hard, it flies back in. Eek! Ow! Ooh! (spooky damage)
"Who's your next of kin?" she asks you. "I need to know who I'm gonna call."
"Hmm," she mutters. "How am I going to fit you into the little trap-box thing?"
"Hold still for a moment," she says, consulting a bleeping gadget. "There's a ghost in your <elbow>, I'll punch it out for you."
"Keep away from me!" you protest, backing away.
"Man," you say, "I bet the fist-bumps you guys do after missions are amazing."
"Oh no, we never fist-bump," she says. "That could cause total protonic reversal. It would be bad." (FUMBLE!)
Occurs at A Crowd of Adventurers (Spookiest Adventurer contest) in The Naughty Sorceress' Tower.
