A shan warrior bares her teeth and barks ferociously!

A shan warrior swings a gleaming silver flamberge at you!
 AS: +261 vs DS: +79 with AvD: +40 + d100 roll: +32 = +254
 ... and hits for 109 points of damage!
 Awesome slash severs your right arm!
 A jagged stump is all that remains!
 You are stunned for 10 rounds!
You suddenly feel deathly ill as your body is wracked by a virulent disease!

Other Messaging:

A shan warrior paces in a zig-zag pattern, pausing briefly to yawn and reveal an impressive array of sharp teeth. The shan warrior's muzzle wrinkles as he sniffs the air, an inquisitive expression filling his eyes as it analyzes the messages carried on the wind.

With his tail lowered and his pointed ears laid back, a shan warrior strides silently, moving with effortless grace and a speed that betrays its formidability.

A shan warrior paces restlessly, a glint of intelligence in his eyes.

A shan warrior's snout wrinkles as he bares hideously long teeth and a growl of malice rumbles in his throat.

The shan warrior throws back his head and howls in triumph! (when they kill you)

A shan warrior whimpers as he slowly backs away, his teeth bared.

A shan warrior's body shimmers slightly. Suddenly, his features cave in, falling grotesquely into a haunting visage of decay, before abruptly fraying to a pile of fur and fangs that marks the spot of his death like a silhouette.
