 You're fighting a hostile intelligent alien

Uh oh. The locals have learned how to use tools, and they're pissed. Those two facts are probably unrelated.

Hit Message(s):

It grabs your hand and makes you hit yourself in the face with it. Ha ha, some things really are universal. Ow. Ow! Ow! Argh! Ugh! Ugh! Ooh! Argh! Eek! Oof!

It stabs you in the <skull> with its crude spear. Oof! Eek! Eek! Ugh! Eek! Oof! Ouch! Ugh! Ugh! Oof!

It picks up a rock and throws it at your thigh. Sticks and stones can break your thigh, and it really hurts a lot. Eek! Ouch! Ooh! Eek! Argh! Eek! Ugh! Ugh! Oof! Oof!

Critical Hit Message:

It stabs you in the <skull> with its crude spear. Eek! Ooh! Ugh! Ow! Ow! Ooh! Ow! Ouch! Ooh! Argh!

Miss Message(s):

It throws a rock at you, but its primitive grasp of physics isn't good enough to aim a rock correctly.

It pauses to bellow something at you in a language you don't understand.

It scowls at you, reminding you that you are the intruder, here.

Fumble Message:

It pauses to bellow something at you in a language you don't understand. (FUMBLE!)

Notes

• This monster's Attack is based on the Player's Moxie+10 and Defense is Player's Muscle+10. However, the Spacegate's first letter will also add an additional 25X, where X is the difference between the first letter and A. (Thus a Spacegate starting with B will be Player Stat+35, while a Spacegate starting with Z will be Player Stat+635.)
• Cannot be be banished, attempting to do so yields the message:

'The weird gravity here stops what you just did from working.

• Cannot be stunned.
• Cannot be photocopied.
• Each alien has a 1/1000 chance to drop exactly one of the five possible primitive items.
