 You're fighting Warbear Foot Soldier

An armored polar bear sees you coming, clicks down the visor on his helmet with a whine of servo motors, and activates his laser axe. He doesn't seem to be here to wish you a Happy Crimbo.

or

A shiny metal ball taller than you rolls up to you as you step into the courtyard. It stops and unfolds itself into a towering armored bear, his chrome armor shot through with glowing streaks of an unidentified blue substance. Nothing about this situation looks encouraging.

or

An armored polar bear attacks you as soon as you step into the fortress's courtyard. He doesn't look inclined to offer you a Cloaca-Cola.

or

An armored polar bear sees you step into the courtyard, and hastily shoves a helmet on his fierce head, servos whining as the helmet clicks into the rest of the armor. This isn't the kind of polar bear who hangs out on an ice floe drinking Cloaca-Cola all day.

or

As you step into the courtyard, a huge polar bear covered in armor leaps out and roars at you, his voice modulated and distorted by the cybernetic enhancements in his helmet.

Hit Message(s):

The punches he throws at you get a little extra punch from his cybernetic armor. Ow! Oof! (Supercold damage)

He blasts into the air with rocket-boots, then delivers a vicious flying kick. Eek! Ugh! (Supercold damage)

His laser axe makes a thrumthrumthrum as it swings through the air, and kind of a schlisk as it cuts through your <throat>. Ugh! Argh! (Supercold damage)

A little gun turret pops out of his shoulder armor and blasts you with buckshot. Ugh! Oof! (Supercold damage)

He bites you with good ol'-fashioned, non-cybernetically-enhanced teeth. Some times the old ways are the best ways. Eek! Oof! (Supercold damage)

He smashes you with a big metal gauntlet. The gauntlet has been thrown, and so have you, and you land on your arse. Ugh! Oof! (Supercold damage)

Critical Hit Message:

He grabs you up in a bear hug, cracking your ribs and squeezing your spine. Then to add injury to injury, he shoots taser darts into your foot and shocks the crap out of you. Eek! Eek! (Supercold damage)

Miss Message(s):

He tries to throw a punch at you, but his cybernetic armor is low on battery.

He tries to activate his rocket-boots, but pushes the wrong button and dumps his fuel supply instead.

His laser axe makes a thrumthrumthrum as it swings through the air. The hairs on the back of your neck stand up and crackle as it misses you by inches.

A little gun turret pops out of his shoulder armor, but it looks like it's out of ammo.

He tries to bite you, but the servo motors that retract its face shield are stuck and whine uselessly.

He smashes at you with a big metal gauntlet, but you're metal enough to dodge.

Fumble Message:

his^[sic] cybernetic armor powers down, and without the servo motors assisting the armor's too heavy for him to carry. He collapses, comically, and waits for a field runner to bring a new battery pack. (FUMBLE!)
