Steam elemental
A valve opens in one of the pipes near you, and you brace for a cloud of scalding steam to come out. Instead, a little voice says, "steam elemental is updating. Checking updates, 1/256." You tap your foot and wait for it to finish, but when it asks you to log in and choose a password to fight the steam elemental, you refuse. After a few "are you sure?" messages, the steam elemental finally puffs out and squares off against you.
Hit Message(s):
It heats up the pipe you're leaning against until it burns you. Why were you leaning against some random pipe in the first place? Argh! Ouch! (hot damage)
It puffs some steam into your ear. You get a life with the dreamer's dream. No, just kidding. You get parboiled eardrums. Argh! Eek! (hot damage)
It puffs steam onto your <thigh>. You get really steamed about it, but it still hurts. Oof! Oof! (hot damage)
It puffs steam right up your nostrils, curling your nose hair and boiling part of your brain. Argh! Ow! (hot damage)
It steam-cleans your clothes. Now you're clean, but also scalded all to heck. Ouch! Oof! (hot damage)
It uses its steam to power a nearby model train, making it roll over your feet. Ouch! Oof! (hot damage)
It envelops you in scalding steam, vigorously cleaning and straightening your clothes while also removing a couple of layers of skin you were pretty fond of. Ugh! Ooh! (hot damage)

It uses its steam to power a nearby model train. It's pretty neat.
