Hooligan

headbutt. headbutt. headbutt. headbutt is the fastest, it is faster than anything. it is faster than light, it is more than we can comprehend. it is a beam of pure thought directed from my forehead into yours at a billion miles a second.

i headbutted someone today and when the smoke cleared we were both 10 years younger. he tried to feint me but before his brain could even send the impulse to the nerves in his body, telling him to point over my shoulder, i had headbutted him twice. sometimes i do it so quickly i don't even know it happened, i am just instantly surrounded by mountains of bodies, heads crushed like old fruit and cocoons undeployed.

i have tested this, i have tested it in my cum fort. it is hopeless. i send this message from the distant future, headbutts have trapped me in a time and space i do not recognize. send help. headbutt a trauma kit and it may end up near my epoch.

Hooligan, the mutation d'jour for big, brawny characters who like to flatten other players' faces and fight particularly dangerous baddies. Hooligan gives some resistances to stunning and a new combat command at the expense of some focus.

Location

Hooligan's located on the second floor of the Nukem Academy (NK on map) in Slagtown. The area is crawling with gun-toting Karnivore punks, so it's best to wait on this mutation until you can take a few bullets to the brain, or you've got a friend who can.

Effects

This mutation gives you:

[ Your focus decreased by 3! ]
[ Your wrestle increased by 1! ]
[ Your stunned resistance increased by 35! ]
[ Your knockout resistance increased by 30! ]
[ You've just received some new commands. ]
[ head*butt hb <any> : ??? ]

Advantages

• Resistance to knockouts and stuns
• The headbutt command is an excellent way to stun enemy players or mobs while you wind up for a powerattack.
• The success of your Headbutt is determined by a check of your Brawn vs. your opponents.
• The accuracy of your Headbutt is determined by your Wrestle skill vs. your opponent's. The dodge skill is also a factor.
• If your Headbutt is successful, you'll stun your opponent and damage them depending on the discrepancy between your brawn scores.

Disadvantages

• The most glaring disadvantage to Hooligan is the -3 to Focus it grants. Not recommended for focus characters, unless you feel like doing a whole bunch of grinding to make up for the loss!
• Fucking up the headbutt role may damage, stun, cause you to pass out or even cause you to sustain brain damage.
• Players with low Brawn will find their Headbutts rather impotent.

Protips

• It's recommended to get Lithodermis if you've got Headbutt, to reduce the chances of knocking yourself out on a failed headbutt, or of giving yourself brain damage.
• The weight of gear worn on your head affects the damage dealt. Many players who make use of headbutt wear Viking Helmets for this purpose.
• Hooligan also interacts with Blink in a pretty fun way...

Appearance

No changes. Lucky you.
