Beast with X Ears

The stairway leading to the next room is blocked by a giant floating mass of ears. This must be the dreaded Beast with n Ears you've heard so much about.

Don't Fear the Ear

The Beast expands and contracts rapidly, shooting out a powerful stream of earwax that hits you in the <face>. Ugh. Ow! Oof! Ouch! Ugh! Ugh!

The Beast forms a tight seal around your <face> with one of its ears, and squeezes, giving you a painful hickey. Ooh! Ow! Oof! Ugh! Eek!

The Beast expands and contracts rapidly, shooting out a powerful stream of earwax that, thankfully, misses you completely.

The Beast tries to poke you with one of its ear hairs, but you deftly dodge. Then you think about how cool the phrase "deftly dodge" is, and consider changing your name to Deftly Dodge.

You gain X <substat>.
