This is the first art project anyone learns how to weld, and the last art project most people learn how to weld. It's a spindly thing made out of pieces of thick metal wire welded together inexpertly and to an overall dubious aesthetic effect. On the plus side, it's the only piece of art in the room that can give you tetanus.

Just kidding about that being a plus.

Hit Message(s):

It whacks you with a particularly thick clump of inexpertly welded solder. Ouch! Ooh!

It pokes you with a wire. Why? Er, because it can. Ugh! Argh!

It lashes a wire at you, raising a welt on your thigh. Eek! Ugh!

It wraps a wire around your throat and squeezes until you say "Uncle." Well, it's more like "erk," but you get the idea. Oof! Argh!

It scratches you with a rusty piece of wire. You'll have to visit Doc Galaktik for a tetanus shot. Ow! Ugh!

It heats itself up with an acetylene torch and gives you a brand. Eek! Oof!(hot damage)

Critical Hit Message:

It pokes you with a dozen of its exposed wires at once, squeezing you and sticking you with surprising force. You would think the crappy welds holding it together would have failed by now. Argh! Argh! Argh! Ow! Oof!

Miss Message(s):

It tries to whack you with a clump of solder, but it's too inexpertly attached to make a solid hit.

It tries to poke you, but you make a joke of that poke.

It tries to lash you with a wire, but you give it a sound tongue lashing instead.

It tries to get a wire around your throat for strangling purposes, but you keep your hand at the level of your eyes.

It tries to brand you with a heated-up wire, but you avoid the branding.

It tries to give you tetanus, but you say, "tetanus? You hardly know us!"

Fumble Message:

It tries to grab you and squeeze you, but its crappy welds fail and it falls apart. It takes a novice welder a few minutes to crappily weld it together again. (FUMBLE!)
