 You're fighting a cavewomyn hippy

This is a prehistoric female hippy. She's rejected the oppressive patriarchal society in which she lives, and has taken to knocking out male hippies and dragging them by the hair into her cave, just to see how they like it. She also analyzes cave paintings from a feminist perspective, though her comments are usually limited to a series of monosyllabic grunts.

Hit Message(s):

She swings at you, but misses. The odor from her furry armpits, however, hits spot-on. Oof! Oof! Ouch! (stench damage)

She bashes you over the head with a club. She'd be pleased to know she hits just as hard as a caveman. Argh! Ow! Eek!

She whips you with her primitive dreadlocks. Okay, so they're not that different from regular dreadlocks. Eek! Oof! Eek!

She claws you with her filthy fingernails. Gah, you're going to need a tetanus shot. Ugh! Ooh!

Critical Hit Message:

She takes off her bikini top, lights it on fire, whirls it around her head, and throws it at you. It burns like burning! Oof! Ugh! Oof! Argh! Eek! Ugh! (hot damage)

Miss Message(s):

She flashes her furry armpits at you, but you set your phaser on "shave."

She tries to whip you with his dreadlocks, but you refuse to be whipped.

She tries to bash you over the head with a club, but misses. So much for gender equality.

She tries to claw you with her fingernails, but there's so much gunk under them that they're not sharp anymore.

Fumble Message:

She races toward you, then stops to ponder whether violence against the oppressor will only continue the cycle of violence. You wait while she debates it with herself. (FUMBLE!)

References

• The spelling of "womyn" and the associated adventure text are a reference to a feminist belief that the accepted spelling of "women" implies that women are a subset of, or a deviation from, men.
• The critical hit message may be a reference to an episode of The Simpsons, where Ralph eats poisonous berries and says, "Taste like burning!"
• "You set your phaser on 'shave'" is a reference to the many incarnations of the Star Trek franchise in which phasers (a laser weapon) can be set to "stun" or "kill."
