Yakuza courier

The yakuza -- literally, "yak-head guys" -- were a force to be reckoned with in the Chinatown underworld. Although, the word 'underworld' doesn't sound quite right when you're talking about guys with brightly-colored tattoos and expensive suits (and yak heads), working out of black glass skyscrapers as though they were a respectable corporation. Come to think of it, I've known some "respectable corporations" that had even shadier goings-on behind the scenes than these guys. Well, that's Chinatown for you.

Anyway, I bring it up because, if you recall, I was trying to mug this yakuza courier for his building access card. Hey, I never claimed to be a paragon of law and order myself.

Hit Message(s):

The yakuza courier reared back and punched me in the face. A simple no-nonsense move from a simple no-nonsense guy. Ooh! Ow!

He spun around and kicked me in the stomach, which was a move I wasn't ready for. I'd forgotten a lot of these guys knew kung-fu. Argh! Ow!

He punched me with both fists. I had just enough time to notice that his knuckles were labelled "LEFT" and "RITE" before all I could see was stars. Eek! Argh!

Critical Hit Message:

The courier slammed me in the face with a fist like a freight train. He even made the "choo choo!" noise. Oof! Oof!

Miss Message(s):

I commented on the courier's tattoos, and he got distracted showing me how the geisha on his bicep moved when he flexed.

He spun around and tried to kick me, but was too dizzy to land the blow.

The courier tried to punch me in the face, but it was a move I'd been expecting. These guys weren't long on creativity.

Fumble Message:

"Wait a minute," the courier said, stopping suddenly. "Why would the boss ask you to punch me in the gut?" (FUMBLE!)
