Whitesnake
From TheKolWiki
 You're fighting a whitesnake
This is a fierce white snake. Like a drifter, it was born to slither alone.
Hit Message(s):
It starts to rock you like a hurricane, then realizes it's not a scorpion and bites you instead. Ouch! Argh!
It makes up it's [sic] mind that it ain't wastin' no more time, and quickly sinks its fangs into your <nipple>. Ouch! Oof!
It starts to wait on love's sweet charity. While it's waiting, it decides to chomp on your <nipple>. Argh! Oof!
Here it goes again, sinking its fangs into your <nipple>. Ouch! Ow!
Critical Hit Message:
It finds a hidden cache of heavy, wrapped parcels on the battleground. It picks them up in its mouth, then uses its tongue to flick them rapidly at you, bruising your <nipple> and your <nipple>. Damn parcels! Damn tongue! Ow! Ow!
Miss Message(s):
It tries to rock you like a hurricane, but you remind it that it's not a scorpion.
It starts to bite you again, but can't make up its mind whether to waste more time before doing so.
It starts to chomp on your <nipple>, but decides to wait on love's sweet charity.
Here it goes again on its own, trying to sink its fangs into your <nipple>. But you dodge before he gets a mouthful.
Fumble Message:
It starts to attack again, then sinks despairingly to the ground. "You know," it says, "I never seem to find what I'm looking for." You respond, "You too? Man, I still haven't found what I'm looking for, either."
Occurs at Whitey's Grove.
Notes
- A successful attack from this monster has a chance of poisoning you:
You are poisoned by the attack...
- The image for this monster used to be this:
- Jick's wife teased him until he improved it, but Mr. Skullhead has stated on the radio show (26th Feb 2007) that he prefers Jick's original drawing.
- The new snake is similar to Sly from the flash game The Asylum.
References
- The adventure title and monster description reference hair-metal band Whitesnake, which had a major hit with "Here I Go Again" on its 1987 album Whitesnake 1987: "Here I go again on my own / Like a drifter I was born to walk alone." The companion video featured a scantily clad Tawny Kitaen who was later charged with battering her then-husband, pitcher Chuck Finley of the Cleveland Indians.
- "Rock you like a hurricane" is a reference to a different metal band, Scorpions, and its song Rock You Like a Hurricane from its 1984 album Love at First Sting.
- The critical hit message refers to Parseltongue, the language of snakes in the popular Harry Potter series.
- The fumble message refers to the band U2, and their song "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For".
