Whax doll

Introduced in 2016 through Delirium Manor, Whax dolls required characters to search within a dollhouse to find pieces to be combined, similar to MoonShard pendants. The doll itself consists of six parts, torso, right and left arms, right and left legs, and a head, and requires glass bottle of blue ooze (glue) to be considered complete. To fully unlock the doll's abilities, a core needs to be found and attuned to one of the many NPCs that wander the manor, along with a key to turn to activate it. With Delirium Manor opening up in 2017, the dolls were updated to allow for additional features, including eyes, ears, and nose, as well as worn or held item accessories. Whax dolls were created by GM Haliste.

Assembled & Glued

Requires a glass bottle of blue ooze.

Glue

Analyze

This bottle contains some blue ooze that can be used to glue doll pieces together.  It contains one application.  POUR BOTTLE on TORSO to glue your doll pieces together permanently.  You will be unable to remove any pieces once its glued.  This process is FINAL!

Usage

>pour bottle on doll
You tip the glass bottle over until the contents drip out onto your unfinished doll.  Almost with a life of its own, the blue ooze slowly creeps across your doll in search of gaps between the segments.  As the last drop of ooze is absorbed into your doll, the wood smolders in your hand, and a rancid odor of burning fat wafts upward, stinging the inside of your nose.  You close your eyes as you grimace in disgust.

When you open your eyes, you notice that the item in your hand has changed.

Core

Key
These are available at the Delirium Manor gift shop and come in four varieties, each lasting different times. While most will disintegrate after each use, permanent ones went out in the feeders and others were permanized at Ebon Gate 2016.

Analyze

This one-time use wooden wind-up key can be used to wind up a rare doll from the Delirium Manor.  Keys cannot be altered.  Keys will last for the following durations:

Wooden: 5 minutes
Brass: 10 minutes
Silver: 20 minutes
Gold: 30 minutes

To use, simply hold your doll and key, and TURN KEY.  NOTE: These keys will not work on partially completed dolls.  You have 5 minutes to PULL out the core once you have wound up your doll.  Failure to do so will cause your doll to unwind.  You will need to use another key to wind it up again.

Usage

>turn key with doll
Inserting the wooden wind-up key into a wide slot on the back of your exemplar doll, you grip firmly and give the key a good twist!  Your wooden wind-up key shatters, but the core inside the doll begins to glow a deep crimson and beat rhythmically, just like a living heart.

[You have 5 minutes to PULL the doll and remove its core to bring it to life!]

Doll

LOOK

Analyze

This exemplar doll is a rare collectible creation found only in Delirium Manor.  It can not be altered, but you can add accessories found within Delirium Manor by holding an accessory in your left hand and your doll in your right hand, and PUSH <accessory>.
