This is a robotic hawk with razor-sharp talons and beak. Sure, normal hawks have razor-sharp talons and beaks, too, but normal hawks can't shoot laser beams out of their eyes.

Let's all take a minute and think about how awesome that would be, though.

Hit Message(s):

It claws you with its razor-sharp talons. What a talonted bird! Eek! Argh! Ooh!

It bites you with its razor-sharp beak. Man, what a pecker. Ow! Eek! Ooh!

It claws you with its talons while pecking you with its beak. Man, birds suck. Oof! Oof! Oof!

It shoots lasers out of its eyes. It comes as no surprise, Christmas lights are blinking! Argh! Ow! Ouch!

Critical Hit Message:

It swoops up high in the air and executes a death-defying dive right onto the top of your head. Er, the "death-defying" was for the bird, not you. You're not defying much death at the moment. Argh! Ow! Eek! Oof! Ow!

Miss Message(s):

It tries to claw you with its talons, but isn't talonted enough to do so.

It tries to peck you with its beak, but you're not about to be henpecked.

It tries to bite and claw at you, but you point out it has neither teeth nor claws. Discuss.

It fires its laser eyes at you, but you know what it's thinking, and you dodge.

Fumble Message:

It fires another barrage of lasers from its eyes, but they reflect off of a nearby mirror and the bird ends up singeing its own tail feathers. It takes a moment to look suitably embarrassed at the miss. (FUMBLE!)
