 You're fighting a handsome mariachi

This is a mysterious mariachi with a mysterious past. He has no name and no hometown, but damned if he hasn't got a good head of hair and a handsome face. He doesn't look too dangerous, but he's probably got a crossbow hidden in his guitar case.

Hit Message(s):

He shoots you a look that's so suave and debonair that you don't notice him stick a shiv into your <shins>. Eek! Ow!

He pulls a hidden switch on his guitar and it spews gouts of flame in your direction. Mmm, flame-broiled <shins>. Eek! Ow!

Critical Hit Message:

He flips his guitar case up onto one shoulder and launches a small heat-seeking missile at you. That's pretty surprising -- you thought only travelling priests packed that much concealed weaponry. Ouch! Eek!

Miss Message(s):

He tries to charm you while he draws his gun, but you're not having any of that.

He pulls a hidden switch on his guitar and it spews a gout of flame. Fortunately, a change in the wind leaves him holding a big hunk of charcoal.

Fumble Message:

He opens his guitar case, and looks shocked and dismayed to find a guitar inside it. (FUMBLE!)
