Six banana-wielding monkeys

Description

In an effort to increase the amount of time the scientists had for doing "science" instead of making tasty beverages and snacks, DQS management thought it would be a good idea to train monkeys to make them instead. Unfortunately, and somewhat predictably, the monkeys are bored with that and want to do something a whole lot more exciting. Right now, the most exciting thing they can think of is to hurt you. Badly.

They're armed with bananas. Well, seriously, what else is a monkey going to wield? Other than the tiny daggers in their off-hands.

No one ever imagined such a thing. No sane person, anyway.

Combat Messages

Initiative Message(s):

• Undeterred by the ridiculous notion of being beaten up with a banana, you get the jump.

Successful Attack(s):

• One of the monkeys distracts you with a rather impressive ninjaesque display of banana wielding. While this is going on the others sneak up and stab you in the arm for X DAMAGE!
• Your opponents sneakily lay out some banana skins which you subsequently trip over and execute an almost perfect Chaplinesque pratfall which results in X DAMAGE and much cheap hilarity.

Failed Attack(s):

• Instead of attacking you, they unexpectedly decide to build a simian pyramid.
• Your opponent would hit you but they're far too busy hanging back, drinking coffee and telling jokes.
• Your opponents wield their bananas menacingly in your direction only to discover that the fruit has been eaten and their bananas are limp.
