 You're fighting a Knob Goblin Bean Counter

This is one of the accountants of Cobb's Knob. They haven't been as busy since inflation pushed beans out of the Kingdom's currency.

Hit Message(s):

He eats some beans and lets loose a fearful cloud of toxic gas. Argh! Eek!

He beans you with a sack full of beans. It hurts, but you've bean hurt worse before. Ouch! Argh! Ouch!

He smacks you upside the <bung> with the weird little visor he's wearing. I'd advise you to avoid that in the future. Ow! Ooh! Ow!

He beans you 37 times (in a row), counting each one carefully. Oof! Ooh!

Critical Hit Message:

He suddenly rips his bean-counting counter from the wall and smacks you up one side and down the other! This is the worst hit you've ever gotten from a bean-counter counter. Would that you had countered the blow. Oof! Ugh!

Miss Message(s):

He lets loose a fearful cloud of toxic gas, but you counter with an even deadlier cloud.

He tries to bean you with a sack full of beans, but fails. Looks like he's a has-bean.

He starts to smack you with his visor, but then revises his plan.

He starts to bean you again, but you knock over a nearby hill of beans and he has to pause to count them.

Fumble Message:

He starts to attack again, then collapses in depression. He points at some nearby hills of beans. "Y'know," he says, "the problems of all the knob goblins in Cobb's Knob don't amount to these, in this crazy world." (FUMBLE!)
