    Should that say "not hurt by"? Or "is not vulnerable to".

    Light attacks hurt unless thing resists light, not bright light.

    "bright light" I think refers to light beams from spell/wand/rod/staff and Phial activation -like effects.

        Maybe it could breathe white noise and lull you to sleep before clawing you in half?
        If beauty is in the eye of the beholder, then why are beholders so freaking ugly?

            Or maybe it breathes sound at @'s resonant frequency

                You're thinking of the Ancient Brown Dragon.

                    Great Wyrm of Dissonance sounds cool...

                        I like cacophony. I do think changing the name makes sense... I have to remind myself that Thunder != Storm even though I totally understand the distinction.

                            Especially when there are Thunder Giants and Storm Giants, and the both use electricity.

                                I don't remember any Thunder Giants. Storm and Cloud, yes, but not Thunder.

                                        No, I'm actually just making stuff up, it would seem.

                                                    Hey now!

                                                    More like "Something mumbles. You are surrounded by scantily clad women, preposterous vehicles, and a green haze. You are confused"

                                                    Actually, the more I think about this, a hip-hop roguelike could be pretty amazing. Like a roguelike GTA.
