blur You're fighting a blur

Try as you might, you can't seem to get your eyes to focus on this thing. It's vaguely anthropomorphic, but it looks like those T-shirts that try to convince you you're drunk. Or, y'know, like T-shirts look when you're drunk.

Hit Message(s):

It blurs you in the <calf>. Oof! Oof! Ow! Ooh!

It pummels you. You feel like a chain store, practically floored. Ow! Eek! Argh! Ouch! Ouch!

It checks your head, like a jumbo jet. Like everything, it isn't easy.

Critical Hit Message:

It charges you with a deafening "woo-hoo!" It pokes you with some pins and some needles, then it lies and it's easy. You're not particularly pleased to meet it. Ugh! Ow! Oof! Ugh! Argh!

Miss Message(s):

It tries to check your <calf> like a jumbo jet, but you dodge.

It tries to kick you and bore into you, but you refuse to be kicked around and bored.

It charges you with a deafening "woo-hoo!" but you lie down and easily dodge the attack. You feel pretty heavy metal for having avoided the assault.

It tries to blur you in the <calf>, but misses.

Fumble Message:
