Combat Messages
- Regular message:
- <name> floats behind your opponent, and begins to glow brightly. Starlight shines through your opponent, doing X damage, and pours into your body.
 | You gain X Mana Points. |
- With lucky Tam O'Shanter equipped:
- <name> glows brightly, revealing some meat your foe dropped in all the excitement.
- With miniature gravy-covered maypole equipped:
- <name> beams and floats around the maypole.
- With wax lips equipped:
- <name> smiles vertically with his wax lips. You must have stuck them on wrong.
Arena Messages
- When entered in a game of Hide and Seek:
- <name> shines too brightly to hide very well.
Notes
- The starfish is required in the Perplexing Door, in the Naughty Sorceress Quest
- Damage/MP restore ranges from int((X+3)/2) to (X+3), where X is the weight of the familiar. It acts 33% of the time. On average, the starfish will regenerate MP equal to slightly more than 25% of its weight after every combat.
- The Star Starfish can be used to perform the Star Starfish Trick.
References
- The star starfish drawing is modeled after a childish drawing of an anus, from the 1973 book Breakfast of Champions by Kurt Vonnegut.
- In the haiku, Do You Believe In Magic? is a song by the Lovin' Spoonful. "Do you believe in magic?" was also a McDonald's slogan in 1993, based on the aforementioned song.
- "Wish upon this star" in the haiku refers to the song When You Wish upon a Star from the 1940 Walt Disney movie Pinocchio.
- In the wax lips message, "smiles vertically with his wax lips" may be a play on "vertical lips", which along with the starfish, can be taken as anatomical references.
