counsel Harry

You are fighting counsel Harry.

This is a consig-, uh, consool-, er, config- ... well, you're not quite sure what that word is. But he gives counsel to the boss and you're pretty sure his name is Harry.
Your opponent attacks ...

Hit messages:

  • Harry holds up an index finger. "The secret of life is to pick one thing and do it well." Then he pokes you in the eye with the finger. "That's my one thing," he explains.
  • He charges you and lands a blow with a precision that's absolutely "maaahvellous." Marvelously painful, to be sure.
  • He pulls out a little golden statuette and clubs you with it. Man, this guy's a real grouch.



He hits you for X damage.

Critical hit message:

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



Miss messages:

  • Harry prepares to attack, but gets distracted by a blonde girl trying to order a salad. You wouldn't think that's such a big deal, but trust me, this time it's very distracting.
  • He starts telling the story of some city he went to long ago, where he found true love. But he's forgotten which city it was, when he was there, and even who he was in love with at the time, so it's not much of a story. There may have been some basketball in there somewhere, but you've forgotten the details, too.
  • His attack is interrupted by a middle-aged woman requesting an autograph. "I just loved you in Coccoon[sic]," she says. "Hey, that wasn't me!" he replies, and shoos her off.



Fumble messages:

Your foe fumbles! He takes X damage.


Victory! You beat up your foe and win the combat!
