Attacks

It tries to butt you in the <shins>, but you quickly turn the tables and <shins> it in the butt, instead.

It charges at you, but since two of its legs are shorter than the other two, it ends up veering off to the right and missing you.

The ram charges at you, but loses its footing and tumbles down the side of Mt. McLargeHuge. How embarrassing.


On a Critical hit:
The ram charges at you and knocks you high into the air with his horns. As you fall, he knocks you into the air again. This goes on for a long time, and then you see the words "200-Hit Combo!" appear in yellow letters above the ram's head.

Drops

You acquire an item: Ram's Face Ale (0% chance)*Data:Ram's Face Ale
You acquire an item: ram horns (0% chance)*
You acquire an item: ram stick (0% chance)*
