ZOM-C submersible

You are fighting a ZOM-C submersible.

You're not sure where submarines fit into the cyborg hierarchy or how they got one into the swimming pool below an asylum, but those questions will have to wait until after you deal with the opening missile salvo.
Your opponent attacks ...

• The submersible dives deep into the pool, into the benthic reaches where crushing pressure and unbelievable cold consume you. How deep does this pool go? damage + (ice) damage

It hits you for X damage.

Critical hit message:

Miss messages:

• The submersible dives deep into the pool, but you wait for it to come back towards the surface. Remember kids, patience is a virtue.
• The submersible hits you with a depth charge cannonball strong enough to sink an aircraft carrier. Thankfully, it just blows all the water out of the pool and you have to wait for them to refill it.
• The submersible starts to charge up its hull, but you remind it you're not a squid.

Notes

• If you don't have underwater gear, the foe always hits, with the following line preceding the attack message:

... it's hard to dodge underwater when you can't breathe underwater...

• If you don't have underwater gear, there'll be a special damage starting on the 2nd round, which will increase until the end of the fight

Chlorinated water pours into your lungs for X damage from suffocation and X (acid) damage from that horrible chlorine sting. If only you could breathe underwater.

• As an Elemental with no underwater gear, the message is instead

The water deals you X (acid) damage from that horrible chlorine sting. Unfortunately, chlorine isn't an element. I mean, it is, just not the good kind you can control.

References

• The foe's image is based on a Kilo-class submarine.
• The third hit and miss messages refer to the movie 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.
