This is a Gnoll who spends most of his time working out in the Degrassi Knoll Fitness Center. You're about to find out which of you is the fittest (y'know, for survival.)

Hit Message(s):

He bench presses you repeatedly into the ceiling. Ow! Ow! Ooh!

He throws his dumbbell at you. It clangs pleasantly as it collides with your <elbow>. Ooh! Argh!

He tries to pump you ahhhp, but fails. So he just paaahnds you into the graaahnd. Ooh! Oof!

He paralyzes you with insults about how weak you are. Ouch! Ouch!

He kicks sand in your face. You feel like a 98-pound weakling. Oof! Oof!

He flexes his mighty pecs at you. You die a little inside. Ouch! Ow! (sleaze damage)

Miss Message(s):

He tries to bench press you, but can't find a spotter. Or spot a finder.

He throws his dumbbell at you, but you counter with a smart bell.

He tries to bend you into a pretzel, but you slip out of his glistening, oily biceps.

He tries to insult your lack of athletic prowess, but can't articulate through his thick Gnollish accent.

He tries to kick sand in your face, but you beat him with a big atlas you found on the ground.

He flexes his mighty pecs at you, but you snicker at his tiny little nipples.

References

  • The encounter text refers to the phrase Survival of the Fittest.
  • "Pump you ahhhp" and the "thick Gnollish accent" in the combat messages are references to famous Austrian bodybuilder Arnold Schwarzenegger.
  • "Pump you ahhhp" may also reference the Saturday Night Live sketch featuring the characters Hans and Franz, who stated during the fictional body-building program that they would "Pump you ahhhp!"
  • The combat messages also reference bodybuilder Charles Atlas, a.k.a. "The World's Most Perfectly Developed Man." His advertisements typically featured a bully on a beach kicking sand in the face of a weakling, who then sent away for the Atlas system and used it to bulk up and pummel the bully.
