Or play as an orc?

Fair acting of those elves - they didn't move all the slots Dudley needs to wish and dress.

I don't think Dudley needs a move to wish -- he got the wish automatically when the poisoned (smoky) arrow hit him. And I sort of thought he didn't get the chance to dress.

Do elves usually shoot poisoned arrows, though? I think of that as an orc thing.

Also, I found the incomplete messages at the top distracting. The idea is good, though. F.

The incomplete messages are enough to suggest the action, though, and I think that's better than cluttering up the interface.
