 You're fighting The Beaver

The Astronomers of old named this constellation "The Beaver" because the stars that comprise it are very volatile, and seem to be almost eager to go supernova. Then they noticed that it was also sort of shaped like the small mammal they referred to as the flat-tailed river ferret, so they changed that animal's name to "beaver."

Hit Message(s):

It eagerly smacks you with its big, flat tail. You somewhat less eagerly feel big, flat pain. Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Argh! Ow! Eek!

It produces a huge celestial cleaver and successfully cleaves you in twain. You jump around like a frog in Calaveras County, howling in pain. Ow! Ugh! Eek! Argh! Ugh! Ow!

It stacks a bunch of celestial logs on you. Dam it! Eek! Eek! Ow! Ow! Ooh! Eek!

It swims through the sky around you, creating a whirling vortex and making you really, really dizzy. Ooh! Ooh! Eek! Ugh! Oof! Ooh!

Critical Hit Message:

It nibbles on you with its little rodent-teeth. It wouldn't hurt, except the points of said teeth are flaming balls of gas. Oof! Ugh! Ouch! Ugh! Ugh! Eek! (hot damage)

Miss Message(s):

It eagerly smacks at you with its big, flat tail, but you dodge with even more eagerness.

It tries to nibble on you, but you dodge its gaping beaver mouth.

It tries to stack logs on top of you, but you get out of the dam way.

It swims through the sky around you, seemingly without a care in the world. What a relaxed, open beaver.

Fumble Message:

It tries to cleave you with a cleaver, but you know better than to get cleaved by a beaver, and you ward off the attack like junebugs in june. (FUMBLE!)
