The Dink Network

I've modified your use procedure so it should work. Just replace [sequence] with the sequence you want to use (there should be four instances) and add/subtract from &star_x and &star_y as needed to have it created in the proper place. The sequence will only play once before disappearing though, and it will stay there even if the sprite moves. So I don't know if it'll work good enough for you or not.

Since you are using magic, I don't know why you would make the enemy target "Dink" if there isn't a second monster. That wouldn't exactly be helpful to the player If you took out that part, the monster would untarget "Dink" (in case the monster had him targeted in the first place) and that would be somewhat helpful. Isn't magic supposed to help the player?
