Cave brute

cave brute

You are fighting a cave brute.

Wearing a leopard-skin loin cloth and little else, this brute looks like a large, blue caveman. Maybe he's a Pict. Or maybe he's from Appalachia.

Hit messages:

• He's smart, erudite, and polite. He also knows how to throw a punch, which he demonstrates.
• He pauses the fight to call his stock broker, sounding like a lost millionaire. Talk about cognitive dissonance! (psychic) damage
• He may be well educated, but he can still bellow like the brute he is. (sonic) damage

He hits you for X damage.

Critical hit message:

Your opponent has a critical hit! He hits you for X damage.

Miss messages:

• He's pretty smart, but he telegraphs his blows from a mile away and you easily dodge.
• He pauses to call his stockbroker. Ever notice how a lot of people pause fights in this town?
• He yells at you, but after so many bad guys have done this, it's sort of lost its impact.

Fumble messages:

Your foe fumbles! He takes X damage.
