• Weapon-Specific Hit Messages:

You flail wildly at the strings of your biwa, producing an out-of-tune cacophony. <It> cover(s) <its> ears and shrieks^[sic], taking X damage. KAPOW! WHAMMO! WHAM!

You play the classic generic-vaguely-asian-sounding riff on your biwa. It shudders and takes X cliche damage. POW! BONK! SPLAT!

You play the classic tune, "Secret Asian Man" on your biwa. It takes X bad pun damage. BIFF! ZAP! WHAM!

You try and play a heavy metal cover on your biwa. The results are painful, at least to your opponent. <It> takes X damage. ZAP! SOCKO! BOOF!

You try and sing along with the biwa, hoping you'll both be so far out of tune you'll go out the other side. It doesn't work, but it does deal X damage to your opponent. KERBLAM! POW! SOCKO!

Notes

• This item can be used to pass The Stone Mariachis.
• Having this item, or any other guitar, and Elvish sunglasses equipped enables the wielder to use the "Play a Guitar Solo" ability once per combat.

References

• The "Secret Asian Man" hit message obviously references the song Secret Agent Man by Steve Barri and P.F. Sloan.
