You're fighting an erudite gremlin
This gremlin appears to have gone through some sort of genetic mutation that dramatically increased its intelligence. Sadly, the mutation did nothing for its looks -- it's still a slimy, mottled-green thing with a mouthful of fangs. It looks up at you, croaks "I...wanna...." and then begins speaking in a perfectly enunciated, mellifluous baritone. "I want to talk about what's going on in this junkyard," it says. "It seems that you are intent on engaging in some sort of altercation with me. While I am normally a pacifist, intellectual creature, I must confess that on some level I would really like to eviscerate, decapitate, and quite possibly defenestrate you."
You get the jump on it.
You stab wildly with your batblade. Your form is sloppy, but fortunately stabbing isn't really an exact science. You manage to deal 328 damage. SPLAT! BOINK! ZOT! SPLAT! WHACK! SMACK! WHAMMO! BONK! BOOF! KAPOW!
Iggy Pop delivers a horrorshow tolchok to your opponent's gulliver, doing 5 damage.

You win the fight!

I used to, but I stopped about six months ago. Not sure why I stopped, either. It's extremely fun. My clan was Joker in the Deck, and my ID was Unfortunate Bird. I suspect that Zifnab was also a player.
exciting times in the kingdom now, with announcements like:
"Nothing interesting is happening. It's just a regular old day..."
"Don't panic."
I had an accordian thief named "Titano Mittenhands" a couple of years ago. He's probably deleted now, as I haven't logged in for a long time. I've had loads of fun with it, though.
