You are fighting a sentient meme.
This is a collection of Internet memes that joined together into a hive and became self-aware. The creature consists of a mishmash of robotic machinery and old computers. This robot is also well-trained as both a pirate and a ninja.
Your opponent attacks ...
Hit messages:
- The meme duct tapes you to a wall and talks like a pirate while performing an interpretation of the hamster dance and the baby dance combined. It's a very painful interpretation. damage + (psychic) damage
- It sets up you the bomb. You try to move 'zig' for great justice, but you have no chance to survive. You cannot make your time. damage + (fire) damage
- One screen flashes with two characters, a colon and an open parenthesis, making you feel strangely sad. It follows up with a capital X and a capital P, making you feel a bit more dead.
It hits you for X damage.
Critical hit message:
Your opponent has a critical hit! It hits you for X damage.
Miss messages:
- It presents you with the image of a really big red button. The button has "PUSH" written on it in huge letters. The meme sneers at you for a second and then pushes the button ... but it doesn't do anything.
- The robot grabs desperately for one of the strangest and most obscure memes it can find. You cringe as it looms close and spreads two arms wide ... and gives you a free hug.
- The meme starts to load one of the most ghastly and horrific web sites yet--Chuck Norris jokes--but hits a snag when it runs into the last page of the internet. You wait patiently while it turns around and goes back.
