Crossbow-Specific Hit Messages:
Oh no, you shot Marvin in the face! Provided that this monster's name is Marvin. In any case, it did X damage. ZOT! SPLAT! SPLAT!
There's a quiet plink sound as your bolt hits <it>, dealing X damage. SPLAT! WHACK! BIFF!
You aim and fire. You miss, but the bolt ricochets off a nearby wall (or tree, if you're outdoors,) and hits <it> for X damage. BARF! SOCKO! BOOF!
You clip <it>[sic] wing with the crossbow, dealing X damage. Maybe next time you could clip <its> nails, instead. ZAP! BAM! POW!
You decide to try something fancy, and shoot three bolts at <it> in rapid succession. It doesn't work very well, and only one of them connects. It does X damage, and makes you look sort of foolish. SOCKO! BAM! WHAMMO!
You dive for cover, and everything goes into slow-motion as you shoot <it> for X damage in midair. It's all very dramatic. POW! BARF! BAM!
You get ready, you aim, and you fire your <crossbow> at <it>, hitting for X damage. WHAM! BARF! SMACK!
You let loose a bolt (not to be confused with loosening a nut) and hit <it> for X damage. ZOT! WHAM! POW!
You shoot <it> in the gut for X damage. Harvey Keitel wanders by, and says "Along with the kneecap, the gut is a most painful area a guy can get shot in." Your opponent nods in agreement. WHAM! BONK! WHACK!
You shoot <it> in the shoulder, dealing X damage. Man, that's gotta hurt. WHACK! BIFF! KERBLAM!

One-handed Crossbows
Although most crossbows are 2-handed, there are a small number of 1-handed crossbows that can be used with off-hand items or Double-Fisted Skull Smashing. These include the Cerebral Crossbow, the Clockwork crossbow, the Curdflinger, and the Starchy crossbow.
