Anti-thief head

Anti-thief heads are scripted severed heads that can be stored in a container, in which they will bite thieves who try to steal from you. They are heavily customizable, have verb traps and ambient zests, and will chew on any wands in the same container, altering the description (example: "a gnawed silver wand"). Analyze This is a shrunken head. You can HUG, KISS, LICK, POKE, RAISE, SMOOCH, TAP, TICKLE, TOUCH, TOSS, TURN, and WAVE the head. Idle messaging can be toggled using RUB and SHAKE.
