You are fighting a star spawn.

Despite the extrasolar name, this is a minion of something even worse that's currently imprisoned under water. If this squid-faced monster is a minion, you really don't want to see the master.
Your opponent attacks ...

Hit messages:

• It peers deep into your eyes and gives you a vision of its master, your recoil in horror. It's worse than late-night infomercials! (psychic) damage
• It wraps its tentacles around your face like some kind of face sucker. The less this is described, the better.
• It's not just a squid-faced monster, but it has some really sharp claws. Like the ones that just sliced you.

It hits you for X damage.

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

Miss messages:

• It tries to wrap its tentacles around your face, but you threaten to give a certain trade group access to a chest with its heart inside.
• It may be a squid-faced monster, but it'd rather be a synchronized swimmer. It asks if you've seen Harry Shearer or Martin Short lately.
