You are certain that the brocket deer is healthy.
You are certain that it is definitely weaker than you are.
You are certain that it is not quite as agile as you are.
You are certain that it is not quite as disciplined as you are.
You are certain that it is not quite as quick to react as you are.
You are certain that it is somewhat less conditioned than you are.
Taking stock of its offensive abilities, and defending with a steel medium shield and an iron-banded parry stick with brown leather straps, you are certain that the brocket deer is definitely less skilled.
Taking stock of its defensive abilities, and attacking with your fists, you are certain that the brocket deer is a creature completely beneath your notice.
If you brawled with the enemy, you are certain that it would train somewhat poorly.
If you defended by parrying attacks, you are certain that the enemy would train very poorly.
If you defended by evading attacks, you are certain that the enemy would train very poorly.
If you defended by blocking attacks, you are certain that the enemy would train very poorly.
If you attempted to beguile the enemy with tactics, you are certain that it would train acceptably.
If you attempted to debilitate the enemy, you are certain that it would train exceptionally well, but you probably won't be landing many spells.

Very minor nitpick/suggestion, but for us, when we appraise critters, we probably shouldn't be assessing our ability to land many spells.

Doh, I specifically tried to avoid that! Will fix it soonish.
