|text=This is one of the hulking, knuckle-dragging cave elves who make primitive tools for Ugh Crimbo to hand out on Crimbo Eve. This particular elf is in charge of chipping the edges off of pieces of flint to make them into sharp-edged hand axes. He gets the flint stones, of course, from the bed rock of the nearby river.
|hit=He blows a handful of flint chips into your eyes. Ay-yai-yai! {{ouch|4}}

He hacks your hand with a hand axe. You really should have seen that coming.{{ouch|4}}

He stabs you in the {{part}} with a sharp piece of flint. You stonily accept the pain. {{ouch|4}}

He punches you in the {{part}} with his big, hairy-knuckled fist. {{ouch|4}}


|miss=He blows flint chips at you, but you take Ozzy's advice and close your eyes.

He tries to hack your hand with a hand axe, but you tell him to unhand the axe.

He tries to stab you with his flint, but you dodge into the woods to the east.

He tries to punch you in the <eye>, but you have an unpunchable <eye>. Yeah, screw you and your unpunchable <eye>.
|critical=He roars, beats his chest, and brings a big chunk of flint crashing down on either side of your head. Apparently, this cave elf's mama said to knock you out. {{ouch|4}}
|fumble=He scrapes two pieces of flint against each other, producing sparks for the first time. He's so distracted by the fire that he forgets to hit you.
