Can you win?
Hard fought victory
You charge into the lashing mass of tentacles, leaping over the first and catching another, pinning it to the ground. You bite down hard, pumping as much poison as you can into it. From under the river's thrashing waters you hear the kraken's cry as your poison takes effect. Your first bite hadn't managed to take, but this one had. Not you just had to hold our until it succumbed to the poison.
Another tentacle comes crashing down, but you had saw it coming. You quickly try to roll to the side, but it still catches you with a glancing blow. You are knocked aside and find yourself on your back with another tentacle coming down towards you. This time you are able to roll out of the way entirely and regain your feet. The Kraken adds more tentacles to the attack, this time swinging them from multiple sides. The song Val is playing suddenly changes and you feel your legs gain power at the expense of your added attack. You leap, landing on one tentacle and use it as a springboard to jump above the mass of the attacks.
Once above the enemy's arms, you aim to land on top of them. Once your land, you resume your biting and clawing, using your newly gained speed and jumping ability to keep evading and countering the attacks. It doesn't take long for the Kraken to see through your methods and set a trap. As you leap over one of the tentacles, you hadn't noticed that it had a second hidden just under it. The tentacle comes up and catches you in the air, wrapping around you and squeezing. Your angry growl is cut off as the air is pushed from your lungs.
Val again changes songs, this time it is your scales that you feel energized and the damage you are taking is lessened. With some added defense, you are able to bite into the tentacle and begin trying to rip it apart. It is a race against time though. Even with your boosted defense, your HP is draining away at an alarming rate. You are starting to think its hopeless when suddenly the Kraken cries out once more and disappears into an explosion of light. Your poison had finally finished it. As you fall to the ground, you hear a Ding as XP floods into you. Your wings grow and your body feels hot. Instead of hitting the ground, you find yourself actually floating above it.

Game Monster
From Creep to Boss
You come into being as a low-level monster, the kind heroes chew through like popcorn. You know the drill, whether you're a player yourself or an artificial intelligence, and you're sick of it. You set out on your own quest: to defeat the heroes at any cost (or at least be an epic boss somewhere down the line).
