Vicious Easel You're fighting a Vicious Easel

This is the most vicious, and yet most completely at ease, easel you've ever seen. It practically vibrates with malevolent energy, personal comfort, and the desire to have a canvas propped up on it.

Hit Message(s):

It clatters over to you and clobbers you, in a most vicious and relaxed fashion. Eek! Argh! Ow! Ooh! Eek! Argh! Ouch! Eek! Argh! Argh!

It easily batters you with a set of unfinished canvases. Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Eek! Ugh! Ooh! Ow! Ouch! Ooh! Ugh!

It turns around and skewers you with its pointy back leg, then flings you out the window. You feel decidedly not at ease. Eek! Argh! Ow! Ow! Ouch! Ow! Ugh! Ugh! Eek! Eek!

Miss Message(s):

It tries to you[sic] in the <forehead>, but misses.

You give your opponent the disease, making it nothing more than a Vicious l, or possibly a vicious 'I', it's hard to say. The remaining letter snarls menacingly but can only fall over sideways when it tries to attack.
You gain 40 <substat>.

Occurred at The Sorceress' Tower (The Stairs).
