HONKIT (Enemy)
This disembodied clown head monstrosity is roaming loose somewhere in the In-Between.
Aubrey wonders what the [BLEEP] Barnabas' problem is, releasing something like that.
Seriously!

I think I find ourselves in favor of deplpoying them! However, I feel as if maybe deploying items may be the cause of the brief static in Audrey's words. Perhaps we should lay low for a while? In any case, it would still be favorable to have decoys.

TIER 0 ACTION FIGURE (Prop)
The Tier 0 Action Figure is a Council-standard training dummy for combat newbies.
This life-sized dummy is inanimate, but durable enough to survive a training session with beginning adventurers.
Some people think they're cute, in an unsettling sort of way.

RE: Four. - Arcanuse - 07-10-2017
Well, as unfortunate as the Honkit being released is, it did reveal something interesting.
Items/Creatures being dropped in a vague, unspecified location seem to not interfere with things we drop in Aubrey's current location. Additionally, it seems to damage local reality to a lesser degree, if at all.
Anyways, if we want to spawn more things perhaps we should do it elsewhere, before local reality has a few too many holes.
Edit: That said, I wouldn't be opposed to experimenting more. Perhaps some of the damage is caused not by us creating items, but our intent that our specific item is the one created.
Later once reality has settled, I propose an experiment.
We each contribute a piece of something, with the intent to combine the pieces into, well. something.

RE: Four. - Arcanuse - 07-10-2017
Arnold, our Orangutan in charge of sorting monster files has requested permission to clarify the Honkit problem.
Unfortunately, the warehouse has been a managing mess for several decades now. We have literal tons of paperwork and redtape being sorted through. Combined with the warehouse being large enough that several thousand monkeys have been lost, and that our only sign they are still alive is the lights in the distance indicating they have formed tribes between the Arcane Implement storage and the Banana Dispensary.
Once we sort through all the paperwork and determine what, exactly, we have in stock, who works for us, how many fines we need to pay for harboring transdimensional miscreants, and so on and so forth, we can find where our employee training manuals went. Or why almost entirely the warehouse staff consists of various kinds of simian.

Once we meet this Honkit, can we keep it? Just look at it, it can't possibly do any harm! I'm gonna put it on a leash and call it Helen, and I'll keep it in the dark corner of the council room so it doesn't bother nobody! Lookit the lil fella! He even has red hair and a red nose, the superior colour, so he surely has a high fashion sense. I promise to feed him three times a day so he doesn't devour the souls of the damned and murder us all, promise.

RE: Four. - Arcanuse - 07-10-2017
Terrifying though the Honkit is, they really are just a nuisance as opposed to being a direct threat. Nevermind that their high speeds and tendency to trip render it rather easy to capture one and, oh, put in a cage or something.
Speaking of, if somehow you manage to capture or immobilize it, try to resist killing the thing. There are a few tests I would like to perform, and in the event those fail I would like to retrieve it.
Having done so, I aim to send something much nicer in it's place.
And yes, we will be checking the shipping crate this time.
I won't lie, we got lucky it was the Honkit...
