Vicious Easel You're fighting a Vicious Easel

This is the most vicious, and yet most completely at ease, easel you've ever seen. It practically vibrates with malevolent energy, personal comfort, and the desire to have a canvas propped up on it.

Hit Message(s):

It easily batters you with a set of unfinished canvases. Ouch! Eek! Ow! Argh! Ow! Ooh! Ooh! Ugh! Eek! Ooh!

It turns around and skewers you with its pointy back leg, then flings you out the window. You feel decidedly not at ease. Ugh! Oof! Ow! Ouch! Ow! Oof! Ugh! Ugh! Eek! Oof!


After Combat
You give your opponent the disease, making it nothing more than a Vicious l, or possibly a vicious 'I', it's hard to say. The remaining letter snarls menacingly but can only fall over sideways when it tries to attack.
You gain 40 <substat>.

Occurs at The Sorceress' Tower (The Stairs).

Notes

  • This monster's combat weakness is the disease.
  • "Dis" is a negative greek prefix. Dis-ease is intended to mean "no ease". Therefore, only L remains.

References

  • "Vicious l, or possibly a vicious 'I'" alludes to the similarity between lowercase "L"s and "I"s when viewed in certain fonts, including the Kingdom's own chat pane font. This similarity is frequently used as the basis for creating look-alike accounts, for purposes both malevolent and benign.
  • "Giving your opponent the disease" is a reference to The Off Season, a short story from The Martian Chronicles by Ray Bradbury. (The "Disease" being chicken pox, which killed the Martians.)
