Examine

INT check
  1. Pass INT roll · common tier

    The head whispers something to your cat as your cat gets close, but your cat can't make out what it's saying.

    Nothing else happens.

  2. Pass INT roll · rare tier

    Your cat finds a small boil on the back of the head. Pushing the boil causes the head's eyeball to drop to the floor, blinking in seemingly random intervals.

  3. Fail INT roll · common tier

    A chill runs up your cat's spine as the head tells your cat a secret. Your cat will no doubt take this to the grave.

    • Next fight: fear
  4. Fail INT roll · rare tier

    The head screams, and its eye rolls back into its head! Your cat's brain flashes with memories that are not your cat's own.

Destroy

STR check
  1. Pass STR roll · common tier

    Your cat attempts to attack the fleshy head, but stops short when your cat hears it start to whimper. A single tear drops from its quivering eyeball.

    Nothing else happens.

  2. Pass STR roll · rare tier

    The head weeps as your cat tears it apart with all of your cat's might. A single tooth flies from its gaping maw… It looks valuable!

  3. Fail STR roll · common tier

    Your cat's paw snags on the large head's tooth, tearing your cat's flesh. The head seems to smile as your cat bleeds profusely.

    • Take 4–8 damage
    • Next fight: bleed (2)
  4. Fail STR roll · rare tier

    The head's mouth opens impossibly wide as your cat moves in to attack. It snaps down on your cat's arm, tearing muscle from the bone!

    • Injury (str)

    Your cat bites into the head. It tastes bland and unsatisfying.

    • Permanent stats: +2 CON
  3. Fail CON roll · common tier

    As your cat gets close, the head shoots something from its eye socket that attaches to your cat's head. Your cat feels strange...

  4. Fail CON roll · rare tier

    Your cat stops short as a guttural gurgling begins to resonate from the bottom half of the head. Your cat's stomach churns, and your cat begins to vomit profusely.
