  Your opponent moves to attack you, but trips over <name> and falls on their face (or face-analogue). <name> briefly peeks out of his shell, then withdraws again.

• At the end of combat (with smiley-face sticker equipped):

  You look at the smiley-face sticker plastered on <name>'s shell and chuckle briefly. <name> does not appreciably react.

• Enthroned in the Crown of Thrones:

  <Name> pulls some detritus out from under his shell and tosses it on the ground in front of you.

• With lucky Tam O'Shanter equipped:

You look at the tam perched on <name>'s shell, and wonder if maybe he's winking inside there.

• With miniature gravy-covered maypole equipped:

Unsurprisingly, <Name> doesn't seem inclined to dance around the maypole. You pick him up and wave him around cheerfully for a moment.

• With wax lips equipped:

You look at the wax lips stuck to the front of <name>'s shell, and are briefly amused by the sight.

Arena Messages

• When entered in a Scavenger Hunt, Obstacle Course, or Ultimate Cage Match:

  <name> doesn't seem particularly interested in... well, much of anything, really.

Notes

• Acts as a Levitating Potato with a bonus +2 weight per player level (bonus capped at +20lbs) when used on a Turtle Tamer, and as a normal weight one on any other class.

References

• The haiku description may be a very obscure musical theater reference. In Gilbert and Sullivan's play Iolanthe, one of the lords sings: "The House of Peers, thoughout the war / Did nothing in particular / And did it very well."
