Terrence Poindexter (true form)

From A KoL Wiki
Terrence Poindexter (true form) You're fighting Terrence Poindexter (true form)

Terrence checks his pocketwatch again. "Ah, good. Right on schedule."

"Oh?" you say. "Did you order your ambulance in advance?"

"I have merely been biding my time while I gathered the energy necessary to change into my second form. Prepare yourself for death, fool."

The seams in Poindexter's suit burst, and behind the sound of fabric tearing you can hear the grotesque sound of flesh and sinew stretching, which I imagine as sounding like inflating a thick wet balloon.

"Your true form is a big pale wrinkly worm?" you ask. "Gross!"

"It's not my true form, you idiotic miscreant," the creature huffs. "It's my... look, just die already!"

Hit Message(s):

Poindexter thumps you with his big tail for a while. Which isn't very interesting, but it's hard to think of attacks for a big worm guy. Eek! Oof! Eek!

Poindexter cracks himself like a whip, smashing you right in the calf. Ooh! Ouch! Oof!

Poindexter opens his mouth wide and vomits a bunch of bones that he doesn't need anymore at you. Argh! Argh! Ugh!

Critical Hit Message:

Poindexter coils around you and squeezes the breath, guts, and life out of you, in that order. (CRITICAL HIT!) Ooh! Ow! Ouch! Ouch! Ugh!

Miss Message(s):

Poindexter starts to attack you but you distract him with a big fishhook.

Poindexter briefly laments the loss of his suit and top hat.

Poindexter gets briefly distracted by how much his head looks like one of those bird guys from The Dark Crystal.

Fumble Message:

Poindexter pauses for a second to be annoyed about his weird little wings that are clearly too small to be useful. (FUMBLE!)
