Blinsky's Dancing Bear
Blinsky's Dancing Bear is a toy made by Gadof Blinsky that was on sale at Blinsky's Toys in Vallaki. It is currently in the keeping of Soryn d'Nemishcata, who was given it by Blinsky. Like all of Blinsky's toys, the Dancing Bear has a strange energy to it that is both compelling and concerning.
Mechanics & Inner Workings
The Dancing Bear is a small, plush, apparently taxidermied grizzly bear (though this would be impossible given its small size) that is wearing a hat, a bell, and a tutu. The bear balances on a rubber ball which is sewn to its feet. The ball appears to be self-righting, though the centre of mass for it seems to shift regularly, causing it to list randomly from side to side. Gadof Blinsky warned Soryn d'Nemishcata not to leave fresh meat near the Dancing Bear, though failed to say why.
Significance
If fresh meat is waved in front of the bear's nose, it transforms as a Wondrous Figurine (Rubber Bear) under the command of its owner.
