Archon

archon

You are fighting an archon.

This is a Zion's Tears archon, one of the highest-ranking leaders of the movement. Unlike human leaders, it doesn't beg for your vote, it commands it.

Or, if encountered after using a horn of Zion:

An archon shows up almost immediately, looking for the matarkhis that sounded the horn of Zion. Realizing you're not a matarkhis in trouble--or perhaps guessing that you took the horn from a matarkhis--the archon attacks without delay.
Your opponent attacks ...

Hit messages:

• The archon builds a bunch of turrets right next to you. Who does that?
• The archon stabs you with its spear. It's probably some crazy otherworldly metal, but the principles of stabbing remain the same across cultures.
• The archon bumrushes you with his shield. Or shieldrushes you with his bum. Wait... definitely the former.

He hits you for X damage.

Critical hit message:

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

Miss messages:

• The archon builds a bunch of turrets right next to you, but you slip between the "defenses."
• The archon stabs at you with its spear, but you manage to parry. Thankfully, the principles of stabbing remain the same across cultures.
• The archon rushes you with his shield, but it's just not as effective without the bum.

Fumble messages:

Your foe fumbles! He takes X damage.
