His speech regularly contains mistakes, such as, but not limited to, saying similar sounding words in the wrong order, switching the first letters of two words, or switching words around completely. | ||

In battle, Geyzer will attack by either smacking an opponent with his tail or by tearing into one with his claws. He is also capable of casting [[Sizz]] in order to hit the whole {{Party 8}} and will often release a cursed wave that can stun a character for a turn, though this latter move will never work against the {{Hero 8}}. It is recommended to be at least Level 5 or higher before attempting to fight Geyzer since his claw attack in particular can easily 2HKO a low-level character. He has a unique idle animation in battle where he spasms momentarily while grimacing, possibly because of his head injury. | In battle, Geyzer will attack by either smacking an opponent with his tail or by tearing into one with his claws.

Then Geyzer will shows the {{Party 8}} a flash back of [[Trodain]] Castle becoming cursed saying that the {{Hero 8}} is the same person and that only he survived the {{Curse}}. According to Geyzer he got the information from the waterfall saying that it "rears many humours". After that Geyzer accepts "dehands" and gives the {{Party 8}} the crystal ball. He then leaves after telling the {{Party 8}} that if they ever meet the [[Fortune Teller]] they should tell him "DON'T THROW THINGS IN THE FALLWATER". | ||

Several years prior to the start of the story, the fortuneteller [[Kalderasha]] had visited the [[Waterfall Cave]] to dispose of his crystal ball, throwing it into the waterfall at the end of the cave. Unbeknownst to [[Kalderasha]], Geyzer was the master of the same waterfall and wound up getting struck in the head by the discarded crystal ball. This event left Geyzer with the scar on his forehead and a degree of brain-damage that impeded his speech, making him get words wrong nearly every sentence he spoke. Constantly pained by his wound, Geyzer swore to get revenge on the 'tortune feller' and placed the crystal ball aloft near his waterfall in the hopes that it would lure back the owner. | Several years prior to the start of the story, the fortuneteller [[Kalderasha]] had visited the [[Waterfall Cave]] to dispose of his crystal ball, throwing it into the waterfall at the end of the cave.
