Initiative Message

• Confident in yourself and your braininess, you get the jump on it.
• You haven't ever published anything, have you? It gets the jump on you!

Successful Attack:

• It extrudes some tentacles and tries to tear you apart for X DAMAGE! Whatever happened to love doing that?
• It slithers over you, covering you in poisonous goo, which eats away at your ego for X DAMAGE!

Miss Messages:

• It turns yellow and falls asleep, when suddenly a short, mustachioed plumber comes along and kicks it.
• It tries to entangle you in its mycelium, but then realises it doesn't have any.
