You wad up the paper and throw it at your opponent. It brushes against the flame from a nearby candle and explodes with evil green magic. When the smoke clears (there was also smoke, which I forgot to mention) your foe is nowhere to be seen.

Uses
Notes
- When used, combat ends in a free runaway. Free runaways do not take a turn, but they do advance Delay counters.
- Familiar usage is incremented at the beginning of combat, so using one of these will not save your 100% run.
History
- At some point on or before October 2, 2014, this item had its autosell changed from 35.
- On January 2nd, 2024, this item was changed to always succeed (it previously had a 50% success rate) and give Everything Looks Green.
- The previous use messages for success & failure were as follows:
![]() |
You quickly fold the tattered scrap of paper into an origami unicorn and set it in front of your opponent. As <it> stares at it, puzzling over its implications, you beat feet out of there. |
![]() |
You attempt to fold the tattered scrap of paper into some kind of philosophically distracting origami, but the best you can manage is a sort of squashy giraffe. Your opponent is unimpressed. |
References
- The origami unicorn in the previous use message is a reference to the 1982 film Blade Runner.
