Entertainment Artifact
|
A small ornate box with a latched lid containing imprisoned microcitizens. The micros are unconscious until the box is opened, which triggers a Commence Routine spell. This forces them to mindlessly perform one of a variety of acts, usually of a musical or theatrical nature.
A variation of the theater box is larger and in the style of a dollhouse, and the micros will mindlessly play the roles of the house's occupants.
Watching theater boxes is considered to be a relaxing way to generate chaos, and some see them as a relatively humane option due to the mind-altering spells involved.
The micros are not usually fed, but are instead simply disposed of and replaced when expended.
