Origins[]

One of the most famed Marionette theaters, the one situated in Salzburg, Austria, has a rich history in performances dating back to 1913.

This particular puppet was used quite extensively in the 1938 tour to entertain German soldiers, and through the resonance of the music and nervousness from the puppeteer, absorbed all feelings present.

Effects[]

Activated by playing symphonic music (It seems to respond best to Mozart and pieces from The Sound of Music) and someone holding the control bar, the marionette will dance to the beat and make others who see it relaxed and peaceful, but the user will be forced to dance along with the puppet. Deactivating before the completion of a song causes extreme paranoia amongst all who saw the puppet.
