Among the wreckage of the sunken ship, you encounter a drowned and reanimated sailor. Now all you need is a drowned and reanimated cowboy, a drowned and reanimated policeman, a drowned and reanimated biker, a drowned and reanimated construction worker and a drowned and reanimated Indian chief, and you could raise a drowned and reanimated child. Because... y'know, it... takes a village?
Hit Message(s):
He stares at you with his dead, waterlogged eyes. You flash back to waiting in line at the DMV. Eek! Ow! Eek! Ouch! Ouch! Oof! Ow! Eek! Ooh! (spooky damage)
He shambles toward you, his eyes flickering with malevolent intelligence. It's pretty darn spooky. Ouch! Eek! Oof! Oof! Ow! Argh! Argh! Ouch! Oof! (spooky damage)
He throttles you with his cold, clammy fingers. Mmm, clams. Wait, I mean, "ow, throttling." Eek! Eek! Ooh! Ooh! Ugh! Ugh! Ow! Ooh! Ugh!
He fires a speargun at you. Looks like he brought a knife *and* a gun to the fight. Argh! Ow! Ow! Ouch! Ow! Ooh! Ugh! Ow! Eek!
He shaves your belly with a rusty razor, then puts you in the scuppers with a hosepipe on you. You're not sure how much sense that made, but it certainly wasn't pleasant. Ooh! Argh! Ow! Eek! Ooh! Eek! Eek! Ow!
He stares at you with his dead eyes, but you used to teach high school, so you're used to dead stares.
He shambles toward you, but it turns out he just wanted to shamble for the candy bar that was behind you. Mmm, shambling Mounds.
He tries to throttle you, but you're already at full throttle.
He fires a speargun at you, but misses by the broad side of a boat.
He shambles toward you, but you make fun of his little hat until he shambles away crying. (FUMBLE!)
