Your opponent attacks ...

Hit messages:

• It grabs you firmly, giving you an up-close look at its featureless face. Trust me, it's really creepy. Well, you've probably seen the Matrix, so it's like that, but with less face.
• It swipes at you with its claws, gouging and cutting you. That's got to be marginally better than being couged and gutted.
• It holds you tight and lashes you with its barbed tail. The "one to grow on" at the end smarts the most.

it hits you for X damage.

Critical hit message:

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

Miss messages:

• It grabs you firmly, giving you an up-close look at its featureless face. It's a little creepy, but you've seen worse, like "the man with no name" or "the bathroom stall with no door."
• It swipes at you with its claws, but it recently had them trimmed, so it doesn't hurt too much.
• It holds you tight and lashes you with its tail, but it really just tickles. Tee-hee.
