Equipment: Hookshot

Boing! Why did the textbox say Boing!?

I was just brainstorming somewhere on how to make an effective hookshot... and I think I came up with something viable. Let's take a look.

Encounter: Bottle Genie

Nyaah Nyaah. Nyan Nyan, Ni Hao Nyan

Genies vary wildly from appearance to appearance. Some are friends, some aren't. A lot grant wishes, some don't. But this time I'm talking about the genie from Link's Awakening. He is a boss that can't be hurt directly; he has to be attacked via his bottle. If his bottle is destroyed, so is he. Let's see how we might model this in GURPS.

Encounter: Moldorm

I am a Moldorm.

Moldorm has many of the same properties as Hard Hat Beetle... except he is a boss. He is incredibly bouncy, and he sits in a room full of floor hazards. Let's see about statting this guy out.

Encounter: Hard Hat Beetle

Hey Guys!

Changing things up, I decided to tackle an enemy with a different interesting mechanic. The Hardhat Beetle from the Zelda series has the ability to repel the player a great distance with each hit. They love slamming into the player, and usually exist in rooms with large amounts of floor hazards. Let's try to stat out this guy's power first, and then we can write him up as a beast.
