Messages

• Weapon-Specific Hit Messages:

You make a bix "X" on <it> with your scalpel. X never, ever marks the spot, but in this case, it marks the spot where you did X damage. SPLAT! BIFF! SOCKO!

You slash <it> with the scalpel, taking X points of <its> precious hit points. Looks like there is nothing <it> can possess that you cannot take away. WHAMMO! SMACK! POW!

You slash with your scalpel, and <it> chooses to step forward rather than dodge. <It> chose...poorly, and takes X damage. BONK! BOOF! WHAMMO!

You use your Dr. Hobo's scalpel to cut like a knife. But it feels so right. To you, that is, not to your enemy, who takes X damage. ZOT! BOINK! ZOT!
