 You're fighting The Black Knight

As you're walking down a path in the Black Forest, your way is abruptly blocked by a formidable-looking knight, dressed entirely in black armor.

"How original!" you exclaim. "I suppose this is the point at which you say 'None shall pass,' then, right?"

"No," says the Knight, "this is the point at which I be stompin' yo ass."

Hit Message(s):

He slices your <elbow> open with his sword. "Damn, Gina." he says. "You so bloody!" Oof! Ooh!

He hits you in the <elbow> with the hilt of his sword. "Damn, Gina." he says. "You so bruised!" Oof! Ow!

He pounds you with his shield. "Damn, Gina," he says. "I so ironic!" Ugh! Ow!

He lances you with a lance. A lot. Argh! Oof!

Critical Hit Message:

He stumbles and manages to cut his own arm off with his sword. "Damn, Gina," he says, "it's a flesh wound!" Unfortunately, you didn't dodge the jet of blood from the wound, which is ichorous and icky. Ickorous? Argh! Argh! (sleaze damage)

Miss Message(s):

He swings his sword at you, but stumbles and misses you. "Damn, Gina." he says. "I so clumsy!"

He swings his sword at you, but you quickly sidestep. "Damn, Gina." he says. "You so agile!"

He tries to pound you with his shield, it doesn't do much damage. "Damn, Gina," he says. "This shield so flimsy!"

He tries to lance you, but since you're not a boil, it's difficult going.

Fumble Message:

You stand six paces in front of him. Since he can only move three paces forward and then two to the right or left, he can't hit you. Checkmate! (FUMBLE!)
