*Regular messages:
**With enough [[MP]]:
**:<name> begins chanting, and you feel some of your power move from you to him. {{MP|type=lose}}
**:<name> dances in a circle. The air briefly glows octarine.
**:<name> grins, and you catch a whiff of Ovaltine.
**Without enough [[MP]]:
**:<name> looks at you with a disappointed frown.
*Enthroned in the [[Crown of Thrones]]:
*:<Name> waves his totem and chants. You feel stronger, and notice that your opponent looks weaker. {{HP|type=gain|amount=5-6}} {{MP|type=gain|amount=3-4}} {{delevel|att=3-5|def=3-5}}
*Bjornified in the [[Buddy Bjorn]]:
*:You hear <Name> chanting behind you, and feel stronger than before. Hopefully he didn't just sell your soul to some weird old god. {{HP|type=gain|amount=5-6}} {{MP|type=gain|amount=3-4}} {{delevel|att=3-5|def=3-5}}
*With [[lucky Tam O'Shanter]] equipped:
*:<name> casts a spell to dislodge some additional meat from your enemy.
*With [[miniature gravy-covered maypole]] equipped:
*:<name> busts a disturbingly erotic move around the maypole. The air briefly glows octarine.
*With [[wax lips]] equipped:
*:<name> smiles extra wide with his wax lips. He looks so cute you could just strangle him.

==Arena Messages==
*None - familiar has no weaknesses.

==Notes==
*The amount of [[MP]] used is equal to half the Shaman's weight, rounded down (minimum 1 MP).
*In [[The Cake-Shaped Arena]], the Pygmy Bugbear Shaman uses no [[MP]], so the [[tiny nose-bone fetish]] is useless here.
*Without enough [[MP]] the Pygmy Bugbear Shaman will do either the [[Blood-Faced Volleyball|Volleyball]] effect or the [[Baby Gravy Fairy|Fairy]] effect, but not both.

==References==
*In [[Wikipedia:Terry Pratchett|Terry Pratchett]]'s [[Wikipedia:Discworld|''Discworld'']] novels, octarine is "the colour of magic", an eighth color of the visible light spectrum that can only be seen by magic users (such as wizards and witches). A few of the books contain jokes about the sexual symbolism of the maypole, which explains the shaman's "disturbingly erotic" maypole dance.
*[[Wikipedia:Ovaltine|Ovaltine]] is a malted milk flavouring used to make a comforting bedtime drink.
