Skeletal Warrior
From TheKolWiki
Skeletal Warrior You've got a skeletal warrior following you around and doing your bidding. As long as your bidding can be done with a rusty sword and a sturdy shield, you're as golden as a fleece. |
Obtained From
- Choosing choice "A rusty sword and shield" in Skeletons and The Closet. (30 Adventures)
Notes
- Delevels enemy's attack by 10-12 at the start of combat.
- Your skeletal warrior flexes his. . . humerus? Anyway, it seems to intimidate your opponent.
- Your skeletal warrior unhinges his jaw and lets out an awful ululating screech. Your foe cowers.
- Your skeletal warrior beats his sword against his shield in your opponent's direction. He looks a little intimidated...
- Your skeletal warrior cracks his knuckles, then his neck, then every other joint. It freaks out your opponent a little bit.
- Your skeletal warrior detaches his skull and waves it defiantly at your opponent. He looks a little freaked out.
 | Monster attack power reduced by X |
- Attacks your opponent for 9-12 damage during each round of combat.
- In stilted, stop-motion-style action, your skeletal warrior hits your foe for X damage.
- Your skeletal warrior brutally slashes your opponent with his sword, dealing X damage. It looks totally awesome.
- Your skeletal warrior has a bone to pick with your foe, but settles for a sword to slash for X damage.
- Your skeletal warrior slashes your opponent for X damage, leaving him thoroughly boned.
- Your skeletal warrior thrusts his sword through your opponent, doing X damage and looking like a bad-ass heavy metal album cover.
- Certain combinations of this effect with other Skeleton effects are enhanced as follows:
- Warrior + Cleric: +10 to Warrior's devel (and also improves the cleric's attack)
- The skeletal warrior and cleric nip off to the tavern for a few minutes, and come back in a significantly better mood.
- Warrior + Wizard: +5-6 Hot damage to Warrior's attack.
- The skeletal wizard snaps his fingers, and the warrior's sword is suddenly wreathed in flames. Sweet.
- Warrior + Rogue: Rogue does damage every round, as well as the pre-combat attack.
- Warrior + Buddy: Warrior's start-of-combat attack delevel is enhanced.
- Your skeletal buddy approaches the warrior with a microwave burrito, saying "Hey buuuuddy, weeze a little grindage?" The warrior eats it. Somehow.
- Warrior + Cleric: +10 to Warrior's devel (and also improves the cleric's attack)
