    This time it tells me a secret about my family that it could not possibly know. +1 CONFUSION (2 total)
    ooh, wait, I forgot about this tidbit. Whenever my confusion goes up, I have to roll three dice.
    So I get to try that twice now.

    Alas, I only achieve a feverish moment of clarity if I roll the same number on each die.
    So I'm at 2 CONFUSION, and 1 DAMAGES and THINKING.

Very cute! But I was thinking it makes more sense (?) with shoggoths than mammoths.

A shoggoth would be far more logical. Do note, however, that the mastodon is very picky about its heritage. It is not a mammoth. (I may have called it a mammoth before it sat on me.)
