You feel power surge through your body.
The creatures see your rippling muscles harden in front of their eyes and stop dead in their tracks.
Your hand grabs at your sword hilt and you whip out your blade.
But to your despair, your new strength is difficult to control
and your first slash with the sword sends the blade flying through the air to land several metres away!
The creatures grin at each other and advance.
You will now have to face them bare-handed.
You may indeed have super-strength, but you are unarmed.
Somehow you eventually win and retrieve your sword.
Your strength returns to normal.
