You're fighting a Gnollish SorceressThis is a Gnoll who's desperately trying to learn the ropes of Magicalness. You're about to show her the ropes -- the ropes of pain! Er, in a "fight and defeat" kind of way, not a "hubba-hubba" kind of way. Not that there's anything wrong with that.
Hit Message(s):
She casts "Sphere of Toothpaste" on you. You try to break free, but are choked by waves of minty freshness. Brrrrrrrrrrr. (cold damage)
She casts "Stream of Consciousness" on you. You wander around hitting your head on things. Oof! Ooh!
She casts "Sphere of Influence" on you. You smack yourself repeatedly in the <leg>. Ow! Ooh!
She casts "Ray of Gamma" on you. It makes you angry, and you don't like it. Argh! Ow! (hot damage)
She casts "Wall of Bricks" on you. All in all, it hurts. Argh! Argh!
She casts "Cone of Traffic" on you. You're run over by six or seven Bitchin' Meat Cars. Ouch! Ugh!
She summons the deep, eldritch magic of the Gnolls and... pulls a rabbit out of a hat. You start laughing, but then the rabbit starts gnawing on your <solar plexus>. (CRITICAL HIT!) Ooh! Ooh!
She casts the dreaded "Sphere of Atmos" on you. Fortunately, it just lets you breathe more easily.
She casts "Sphere of Experience" on you. Fortunately, it only makes you wiser.
She tries to cast "Stream of Profanity" on you, but you plug your ears.
She casts "Ray of Gene" on you. It's confusing, but harmless.
She casts "Ray of Light" on you, but you're quicker than it.
She casts "Cone of Ice Cream" on you. Tasty!
She summons the deep, eldritch magic of the Gnolls, surrounds herself with a dark sphere of mystical energy, and turns to you, saying: "Is this your card?" (FUMBLE!)
