The Gruntz Level Editor Manual left out any documentation on the Magic Wand Grunt, so we invent some based upon what the solver'z version is like.
There should be (at least) six different typez of Magic Wandz, but Random Spellz seemz to be the only one that workz ... and it seemz that only Spellz 1, 2 and 3 are ever actually cast.
Each time a Magic Wand Grunt castz a spell his health decreases by one-fourth from his original full health state. Wave that thing four times, and the spell caster leaves this Gruntzy plane of existence!
This Grunt is a pacifist! He may wave his Magic Wand ... but he won't punch or kick.
He'll sometimez follow you around like a love-sick puppy, which you can apply to advantage by leading him somewhere, and then giving him a toy ... and disappear while he is occupied ... leaving him "holding the bag" (or standing on some sort of Switch ... where you wouldn't want to spend the rest of the game).
