William Shakespeare's Chair from the Globe Theatre

Origin
William Shakespeare, born in the mid-1500's, is widely regarded today as one of the great masters of playwrites and written word in general. His plays have not only survived countless adaptations and presentations, but have inspired several generations worth of young writers.

In his prime he had built The Globe Theatre in London in 1599. During a production of a performance of Henry VIII, a theatrical cannon misfired and set fire to a curtain. The flames, growing out of control, quickly burned the theatre to the ground. There were no casualties, and a second theatre was rebuilt on the spot a year later, but was closer down in 1642

Effects
When the chair is in close proximity to a certain number of people or a strong creative spirit, it will activate on its own. The 'Actors' will find the area around them has taken on the qualities of a stage set, with wooden background cutouts taking the place of real objects and an ceiling of ropes and pulleys. The chair itself will position itself as if an audience member and will watch the play. At this point, it cannot be neutralised

If the chair is not sufficiently amused at any point, or if the 'Actors' don't play their parts, the set will quickly catch fire and immolate the unfortunate victims. At this point, the chair will return the area to it's original state and dump the body or bodies nearby. If the play is concluded and the chair is sufficiantly amused, it will lower the curtains and release the victims, unharmed.
