Combat Messages
  • The parrot will sometimes repeat the last thing you said in chat as its combat text.
  • Without being in chat:
    <name> squawks, "Awwrrk! Timmy's fallen down the well! *whistle*"
    <name> squawks, "Awwrrk! Your actions are morally reprehensible. *whistle*"
    <name> squawks, "Awwrrk! Don't forget DL-6! *whistle*"
    <name> sits on your shoulder, preening and otherwise unaware of what you're doing.
  • Enthroned in the Crown of Thrones:
    <name> becomes a blur of feathers, beak, and claws as it attacks her for 15-30 damage. Man, what a parrot trooper.
  • Bjornified in the Buddy Bjorn:
    <name> attacks your foe in much the same way you would, although with more wing-flapping. It's 15-30 damage worth of cute.
  • With lucky Tam O'Shanter equipped:
    <name> winks at you and squawks "Pieces of eight! Awwrk!"
  • With miniature gravy-covered maypole equipped:
    <name> flaps around the maypole once, and then perches on top of it and preens for a bit.
  • With wax lips equipped:
    <name> tries to whistle at you, but the wax lips make it rather difficult.

Arena Messages

  • When entered in a game of Hide and Seek:
    <name> is far too brightly-colored to be an effective hider.

Notes

  • Attempting to name the parrot "Polly" will result in it being named "Unoriginality." However, naming it "Polly" at Manage Familiar Names will not trigger the renaming of "Unoriginality."
  • Due to its ability to provide elemental resistance without using an equipment slot, the Parrot proves useful in Fernswarthy's Basement.
  • Starting at 1 pound, the Exotic Parrot provides +1 Hot resistance. Increasing the Exotic Parrot's weight by increments of 4 pounds provides +1 elemental resistance to Cold, then Spooky, Stench, Sleaze, and then Hot again.
