Figure-skating duck
From TheKolWiki
 You're fighting a figure-skating duck
This is one of the ducks that got driven from the barn into the frigid waters of McMillicancuddy's pond. It decided to make the best of a bad situation, though (just like Mom always said -- when life gives you ice, make ice water,) and has somehow fashioned a pair of ice skates.
Hit Message(s):
It snaps you with its icy bill. That said bill contains no teeth is cold comfort indeed.
Brrrrrrrrrrr. (cold damage)
It does a quadruple salchow, which ends with a frigid ice skate to your brainpan.
Brrrrrrrrrrr. (cold damage)
It does a triple-axel, foley, and sprays you with a blinding sheet of ice as it lands..
Brrrrrrrrrrr. (cold damage)
It does a double Lutz, lands on your back, and propels you through the thin ice into the ice-cold water.
Brrrrrrrrrrr. (cold damage)
Critical Hit Message:
It does a beautifully-executed series of jumps, spins, and pirouettes, then pulls you in to do a couple of pas de ducks. It spins you around until you fall flat on the cold, cold ice.
Brrrrrrrrrrr. (cold damage)
Miss Message(s):
It tries to do a double Lutz, but fails to stick the landing and slides across the ice.
It tries to do a triple-axel, but breaks down after a bad score from the Russian judge.
It does a quadruple salchow, then bows and waits for applause.
It starts to do a series of pirouettes, spinning over and over again, getting closer to you with each rotation. Before it can get to you, though, it drills a hole through the ice and falls in.
Fumble Message:
It tries to snap you with its icy bill, but the bill is too small to hurt you. It should have charged more.
