Rain-Doh black box

When Used

• Upon clicking the [fight (1)] link, this item starts a combat against the monster which was copied with the Rain-Doh black box. The monster's usual pre-fight text is replaced with:

"You play back the recording and a big ol' %copymonster appears!"

• However, if the monster copied in the box is uncopyable, however (usually by a monster's copyable status being changed):

You push the button on the side of the box, but all it does is make a weird noise. Huh.

You acquire an item: Rain-Doh black box

Notes

• The combat consumes one adventure, except in the case of a BRICKO bat, BRICKO ooze, or any of the Mini-Hipster combat encounters.
• When fighting a copied monster, you can use the Rain-Doh black box to copy the monster again, allowing you to fight the same monster over and over again (although the box/sheet is limited to 5 uses per day).
• Can be used when falling-down drunk.
• When viewed without having this item in inventory (without a monster captured?), "%copymonster" is replaced with "something totally unrecognizable".

References

• Just like with the Rain-Doh black box, pressing the box's button to cause the heartburn of someone you don't know is a reference to the short story, Button, Button, by Richard Matheson.
