cave brute

You are fighting a cave brute.

Wearing a leopard-skin loin cloth and little else, this brute looks like a large, blue caveman. Maybe he's a Pict. Or maybe he's from Appalachia.
Your opponent attacks ...

Hit messages:

  • He's smart, erudite, and polite. He also knows how to throw a punch, which he demonstrates.
  • He pauses the fight to call his stock broker, sounding like a lost millionaire. Talk about cognitive dissonance! (psychic) damage
  • He may be well educated, but he can still bellow like the brute he is. (sonic) damage



He hits you for X damage.

Critical hit message:

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



Miss messages:

  • He's pretty smart, but he telegraphs his blows from a mile away and you easily dodge.
  • He pauses to call his stockbroker. Ever notice how a lot of people pause fights in this town?
  • He yells at you, but after so many bad guys have done this, it's sort of lost its impact.



Fumble messages:

Your foe fumbles! He takes X damage.
