Fruit Golem
From TheKolWiki
 You're fighting a Fruit Golem
This is a golem made of fruit. That's why they call it a Fruit Golem. They don't call it a Fruity Golem because they don't like internal bleeding.
Hit Message(s):
It pelts you with a barrage of apples. Looks like an apple a day keeps the doctor in business. Eek! Ugh! Ooh! Oof!
It throws a mango at you, hitting you right in the <knee>. Ouch! Ow! Ugh! Ow!
It whacks you with a grapefruit, leaving a grapefruit-sized bruise on your <knee>. Eek! Oof! Ow!
It tosses a bunch of bananas at you, then an orange. Orange you glad it stopped chucking bananas at you? Ooh! Ugh! Ugh!
Critical Hit Message:
It smacks you with an impressive variety of fruits. It's like being attacked by some fiendish amalgam of Carmen Miranda and Chuck Norris. Argh! Argh! Ooh!
Miss Message(s):
It winds up to throw a coconut at you, but slips on a banana peel and misses. Irony!
It throws a mango at you, but you move aside and let the mango through.
It tries to hit you with a grapefruit, but misses, because a grapefruit is neither a grape nor a fruit. Either that or because you dodged.
It hits you with a barrage of grapes. They let out a little whine as they fly through the air, but don't really hurt when they hit.
Fumble Message:
It starts to attack again, but is beset upon by a swarm of fruit flies. Apparently they're attracted to his bananas -- everybody knows that time flies like an arrow, but fruit flies like a banana.

Occurs at Menagerie Level 1.
Notes
- It seems that no more than one grapefruit may be obtained per battle.
