Menacing lawn gnome

From A KoL Wiki
menacing lawn gnome You're fighting a menacing lawn gnome

You've met some good gnomes, and you've met some bad gnomes, but you've never met a gnome quite as evil as your garden variety lawn gnome. Or your lawn variety garden gnome, as the case may be.

The empty, beady little eyes, the sinister half-grin, the pointy little red hat -- you don't trust any of it.

Sensing your mistrust, it stops what it's doing and advances on you with a tiny machete.

Hit Message(s):

He runs up to you and stomps on your toe. Argh! Ouch!

He hacks through your arm as though it were a tiny hedgerow. Ouch! Ugh!

He headbutts you with his pointy red hat, which turns out to be made of something a lot more solid than felt. Ugh! Ouch!

He slashes the top off of a nearby dandelion, scattering seeds everywhere. You sneeze uncontrollably. Oof! Oof!

Critical Hit Message:

He sneaks around behind you and slashes the back of your ankle like in that one really horrifying part of Pet Cemetary. Oof! Argh!

Miss Message(s):

He tries from stomp on your toe, but he can't lift his stubby little leg high enough.

He tries to slash your throat within his tiny machete, but he's unable to properly control it.

He tries to headbutt you with his pointy red hat, but you make a point of dodging it.

He tries to hit you with his machete, but it gets caught in his beard.

Fumble Message:

He lunges toward you to attack, but at the last minute he's picked up by a stewardess and whisked off to have his photo taken in a variety of exotic locations. (FUMBLE!)
