Combat Messages
  • Regular messages:
    <name> does a little tap-dance while he sings, "by a waterfall, I'm calling you-hoo-hoo-hoo." You remind him not to go chasing waterfalls, and he winks at you.
    <name> dances while singing, "what else could I be? It's all a ball of cheese!" then he drops back into a squat, ribbits, and winks at you.
    <name> does a little soft shoe and sings, "hello, my baby, hello, my honey, hello, my ragtime gal!" Then he winks at you. It's the best song about PMS you've ever heard.
  • With lucky Tam O'Shanter equipped:
    <Name> winks one of its nictitating membranes from beneath the Tam O'Shanter.
  • With miniature gravy-covered maypole equipped:
    <Name> does a series of impressive high-kicks around the Maypole with his delicious, delicious legs.
  • With wax lips equipped:
    <Name> sticks his tongue through the Wax Lips and snags a fly.

Arena Message
