Ruby Slippers

Origin
Judy Garland, born Frances Ethel Gumm, was a renowned actress from the 1930's until her death in 1969. She has often been acclaimed as one of the best actresses of all time, known for her diverse roles and talent range. A singer, and a film and stage actress, Garland is known best by the MGM masterpiece "The Wizard of Oz", wherein she played the main character, Dorothy Gale.

Along with her fame she is also remembered for her troubled life off camera. Often being criticized and harassed by producers, agents, and directors, she developed a deep depression despite her enormous popularity. It was believed to have begun around the time of the filming of the Wizard of Oz. After Shirley Temple turned down the role that was intended for her, Garland stepped into the role.

For decades she suffered from low-self worth and depression, even attempting suicide twice. Her string of marriages all ended in failure, and she was diagnosed with cirrhosis shortly before her death. Her death was ruled as an accidental death by overdoses of barbiturates.

Usage
A rather vicious artifact, the ruby slippers seem to delight in causing others pain. When a possible victim is nearby, a maniacal cackling sound can be heard, and the shoes will click together by themselves. Only targeting young women, the shoes force the victim to place them on her feet.

The user will then fall into a deep depression caused by feelings of self-loathing about her image. The wearer will also go through many doomed relationships, leaving her with a broken heart. She will become addicted to barbiturates, and attempt suicide until she succeeds through an overdose.

Due to their cruel nature and sentience, the shoes must be kept in the dark vault on their own pedestal with its own neutralizer system.
