Mounted lawn gnome

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

Nothing runs like a Deere, or you from this lawn gnome's riding mower, if you know what's good for you.

Hit Message(s):

He executes a very slow drive-by headbutt on you. Eek! Oof!

He pulls a small gas can from under the seat, throws some on you, and lights it. Eek! Ouch! (hot damage)

He does donuts on the lawn in front of you, repeatedly blasting you with hot exhaust. Ow! Ooh! (hot damage)

He backs the lawnmower over you, without even having the courtesy to make "beep beep beep" sounds while he does it. Eek! Ouch!

He builds up a head of steam and rolls over you with the lawnmower. It slices up the entire front of you (but leaves you handsomely groomed!)Ow! Eek!

Critical Hit Message:

You've always wondered what it felt like to be that guy that Steve Buscemi fed through that woodchipper. I'm not going to describe what happens to you at the hands of this gnome, but suffice to say you don't wonder anymore. Ow! Ooh!

Miss Message(s):

He drives the mower toward you, but zags out of the way to take care of a nearby patch of slightly-taller-than-average grass.

He tries to back over you, but the engine on his mower dies and he has to hop down and restart it.

He tries to run you down, but you walk up a steep enough hill that you can easily outrun his mower. Riding mowers are like the opposite of bears.

He tries to roll over you, but runs out of gas. Should've bought a hybrid.

Fumble Message:

He tries to run you down, but accidentally mows over an old tree stump and kills his engine. You point and laugh. (FUMBLE!)
