| You acquire an item: empty blowgun |
- Now what in the heck are you going to do with this?

- When used after the end of the Grey Plague:

Notes
- Could be obtained from Doc Galaktik upon giving him a zombie pineal gland.
- After the destruction of The Gray Plague, the blowgun was no longer obtainable from the Doc.
- Cured and immunized characters affected by the Gray Plague. Persons who had never been infected did not need immunization at the time this cure became available.
- Players tend to be divided regarding the etiquette on shooting one another with the blowgun. There were many who, for some reason or other, did not want to be cured of their terrible affliction, among them those who wanted to become zombies, while there were many more who felt that desire was inconsistent with how they should be perceiving a dire, life-threatening disease. Many others just wanted to help save the Kingdom from a terrible future. In the end, Jick said, definitively, that no one would have become a zombie because the staff did not write that possibility into the event, as it was never intended to happen.
References
- The disclaimer notes that "Men impregnated with alien embryos should not take Ofuxxor." in reference to the Alien movies starring Sigourney Weaver, which occurs fairly frequently due to the need of early developmental stage aliens to deposit embryos in a living host to achieve maturation into an adult xenomorph. This aspect of the Alien films has been parodied in various other media, including the movie Spaceballs, computer game The Sims 2, and television show Jimmy Neutron.
