time cop You're fighting a time cop

There's a disconcerting screech as everything around you freezes. A uniformed officer steps out of nowhere and flashes a "Bureau of Time Intervention" badge at you

or

A uniformed officer appears out of nowhere (without stopping time)....

Hit Message(s):

The time cop arrests your <neck> for time crimes, and beats it up for resisting arrest while it tries to get the <neck>-cuffs on. Ow! Eek! Eek!

The time cop goes back in time a couple turns, and helps the previous version of itself beat you up. That happened in the past, but you're just noticing the injuries now. Argh! Argh! Ooh!

It turns out time cops are just as much into police brutality as regular cops, except they've had infinite time to practice. Ouch! Ooh! Eek!

The time cop shoots a time ray at your <neck>, making it four thousand years older. Basically the same as if it'd just shot it off with a regular gun, but somehow more insulting. Ooh! Eek! Ooh!

Critical Hit Message:

The time cop shoots a ray at you that temporarily de-ages you to about nine years old, and beats the absolute stuffing out of you. (CRITICAL HIT!) Eek! Ow! Eek!

Miss Message(s):

The time cop starts to arrest you, but has to stop and check the date on its warrant.

The time cop tries to go back in time to multiply itself, but accidentally goes forward a turn instead.

The time cop shoots a beam weapon at your <neck>, but miscalculated when your <neck> was going to be where it was aiming.

The time cop tries to eliminate you from history but killing your grandpa, but your grandpa was a tough old fart.

Fumble Message:

The time cop stops to check its very large and elaborate wristwatch. (FUMBLE!)


After Combat
You acquire an item: time cop top hat (1% chance)*

Occurs with the Möbius ring equipped.

Notes

  • The top hat is pickpocket-immune and can't be forced to drop via Yellow Ray mechanics.
  • This monster cannot be copied.
  • The first 11 time cop fights each day do not take an adventure. After that, the appearance text changes, and the fights take an adventure.
