smell-o-the-wisp You're fighting a smell-o-the-wisp

A will-o-the-wisp is a bubble of marsh gas -- methane, usually -- that ignites, becoming an eerie hovering ball of blue fire. In areas with high concentrations of magical radiation, these fires sometimes acquire semi-permanence (that is, they don't burn out right away), and limited sentience.

A smell-o-the-wisp is the same thing, except unignited -- a little cloud of semi-sentient methane gas that delights in playing malicious pranks on passers-by. These pranks usually involve making your travelling companions think you cut one.

Hit Message(s):

It's amazing that there's something fouler-smelling in this swamp than the swamp itself, but you're too busy retching to really appreciate it. Ugh! (stench damage)

The smell-o-the-wisp flies up your nose, and you seriously consider the possibility of cutting it off to escape. Ugh! (stench damage)

The smell-o-the-wisp fills your head with the concentrated stink of a million truck-stop restrooms. You find yourself wishing for a neti pot filled with boiling bleach. Ugh! (stench damage)

Critical Hit Message:

The wisp envelops your head in the worst stink ever -- it's like three-day chili cookoff staffed by zombies. Ugh! (stench damage)

Miss Message(s):

The wisp flies at you, but you quickly flap your hands to fan it away.

The smell-o-the-wisp tries to invade your sinuses, but you clip a clothespin to your nose. It melts, but at least you got a temporary reprieve.

The smell-o-the-wisp flies up your nose, but you sneeze just in the nick of time.

Fumble Message:

A slight breeze picks up, temporarily keeping the smell-o-the-wisp from being able to get near you. (FUMBLE!)
