Messages

• Your gnoph-keh rears up and hits your opponent with one, two, three, four! Four mighty paws! Ah! Ah! Ah! It does 13-19 + 13-19 damage.
• Your gnoph-keh charges your opponent, stabbing with its rime-encrusted (Ryme-entrusted?) horn, dealing 12-15 + 12-15 damage.
• Your gnoph-keh howls loudly, summoning up a gale of blinding snow, completely distracting your opponent.
  

Dismissal Message: You decide you're better off without a sidekick and shoo yours away.

Notes

• Both attacks do an equal base amount of physical and ice damage.
• The howl message stuns opponent for one round (the round in which it was seen).
• Can have both a howl and an attack at the same round.

References

• Gnoph-keh are a fictional species of non-humans in the Cthulhu Mythos. They have an affinity for cold, ice and snow, and artwork portrays them as similar to very large six-legged polar bears, with a narwhal-like horn.
• The first attack message is a reference to the character of Count von Count on the children's show Sesame Street (the Count's catch phrase is to count objects and then say, "ah, ah, ah!").
• The second attack message is, of course, an obvious reference to Ryme.
