*Enthroned in the [[Crown of Thrones]]:
*:<name> shoots you with a tonic-water arrow. The tonic heals the wound the arrow caused, and your blood fizzes merrily. If only you had some gin and a lime in your blood, too. {{MP|amount=5-6}}
*Bjornified in the [[Buddy Bjorn]]:
*:<name> sings a hymn to refresh your spirit. He's forgotten most of the words, so there's a lot of humming and "dum de-dum", but it's the thought that counts. {{MP|amount=5-6}}
*With [[lucky Tam O'Shanter]] equipped:
*:<name> uses an eyepatch arrow to briefly cover one eye beneath the Tam O'Shanter.
*With [[miniature gravy-covered maypole]] equipped:
*:<name> uses his teeny little wings to do a goofy mid-air ballet around the Maypole.
*With [[wax lips]] equipped:
*:<name> smiles beatifically through the wax lips.

==Arena Messages==
*When entered in a Scavenger Hunt:
*:Obtuse Angels have trouble remembering how the scavenger hunt is supposed to work, and usually just end up turning in whatever's in their pockets.

* Grants the following combat skills:

***Stuns for 1 round and attracts the monster on later adventures
**[[Fire a boxing-glove arrow]] (5/day)
***Stuns the opponent for multiple rounds
**[[Fire a poison arrow]] (10/day)
***Damages and poisons the opponent
**[[Fire a fingertrap arrow]] (10/day)
***Reduces the opponent's attack and defense

*The haiku references ''[[wikipedia:Stupid Cupid|Stupid Cupid]],'' a hit song in 1958 written by Howard Greenfield and Neil Sedeka and sung by Connie Francis.
