You are attacked by a bar. Yup. I reckon there's a lot of bar in these here woods. Boy howdy.
Hit Message(s):
Well, that ol' bar just about clawed himself a nice big hole in your <forehead>, I reckon. Ooh! Oof! Ooh!
The bar tries to show his tender side, but he's never heard of a tender bar (or a bar tender) so just ends up biting you. Oof! Ow! Eek!
You remember hearing once that bars can't run downhill, so you take off running. Turns out that whoever told you that was full of crap, though -- the bar tackles you and mauls you pretty comprehensively. Oof!
Well, that ol' bar tried to claw you right in the <kidney>, but I reckon he missed.
The bar starts to attack, but suddenly needs to go do that thing that bars do in the woods.
The bar charges at you, but gets distracted by a nearby pot labeled "HUNNY." (FUMBLE!)
![]() | You gain 13-18 Meat |
![]() | You acquire an item: bar skin (35% chance)* |
You gain 1 <substat>. |

- You dart past the bar and snatch the accordion of his former victim.

- "Bar" may also reference the folk hero Davy Crockett, who "killed him a bar when he was only three."
- "Bar" is an example of the Southern American English (or SAE) dialect, which is used commonly by people in the rural south of the United States, and some adjacent areas.
- The second missed attack refers to the cliché, "Does a bear shit in the woods?" It is a common response to a yes/no question wherein the answer is an obvious "yes".
- The "pot of HUNNY" fumble message refers to Winnie-the-Pooh.
- "Bär" is German for "bear".
- The monster-specific hit message refers to the right to bear arms, a right that all US citizens have under the Second Amendment to the Constitution. "Bear" is a homonym; its two interpreted meanings here are the monster you're fighting, and the verb "to possess".
