Darkness

From TheKolWiki

Not to be confused with the monster in the Sorceress' Tower, the darkness

darkness You're fighting the darkness

Hit Message(s):

Ouch! Ugh! Oof!

Critical Hit Message:

(Critical hit message of the monster you'd normally get if you weren't temporarily blinded.)

Miss Message(s):

You hear the monster moving towards you, so you make an attempt not to be where you just were. It seems to work.

Fumble Message:

(Fumble message of the monster you'd normally get if you weren't temporarily blinded.)

MeatYou gain some Meat.
SomethingYou acquire... something. [[Data:{{{item}}}]]
You gain some <substat>.

Occurs when fighting enemies while Temporarily Blinded.

Notes

  • The amount of experience gained, meat dropped, and items acquired, are comparable to the type of monster you are actually facing, depending on the location being adventured in.
  • Casting CLEESH will result in this message:
    You cast CLEESH at your opponent. It turns into ... some kind of amphibian, you imagine..
  • The initiative message is always gender-neutral: "You get the jump on it" or "It gets the jump on you." However, the combat messages from certain skills and items, such as spices, will reveal your opponent's gender.
  • Casting Magic Missile will result in this message:
    You attack the darkness. An elf with blue... no, gray eyes falls out of the darkness, clutching a can of Mountain Stream. You wish briefly for some cheesy puffed corn snacks.

  • Critical hit and fumble messages are shown as though the monster wasn't obscured in darkness.

References

  • "Attacking the Darkness" is a reference to the Dead Alewives' Dungeons and Dragons sketch. This is further cemented by the combat text when casting Magic Missile, as the sketch involves a wizard casting Magic Missile at the darkness, a character whose eye-color is in dispute, and someone demanding to know where the Mountain Dew and Cheetos (a cheesy puffed corn snack) are.
