Cocaine Elemental

cocaine elementals · infused elementals · the doll monsters · Nose Candy Star Dusters

Melting toy dolls turned contagious drug-elementals — able to pass through shields, and the reason the doll-packing room was sealed.

Story so far

The cocaine elementals are the swarming toy-doll monsters of the Gasworks Screw Factory's doll-packing room — Barbie-, Bratz-, and G.I. Joe-like figures with giant heads whose metal frames are infused with the Coblyn Corporation's drug blend. They exist by accident: when the knockers cast their elemental magic in the steel mill to create boss monsters, some leaked into the doll stock, so the room was sealed — until Carl's crew broke it open.

Named specimens include the mascots of the all-girl band the Nose Candy Star Dusters — Toot-Toot (a purple-streaked Grape-flavored Cocaine Elemental, level 12, who chirps advice on framing your teacher for cash), Sally Speedball, and Belushi — plus a tattooed, headband-wearing action figure, el Asesino de la Melaza, hissing 'snitches get their throats slit.' Crucially they are *infused* elementals with the dreaded 'pass-through' ability, letting them breach containment shields, and the magic is contagious. They melt in the factory heat but keep coming, army-crawling over the truck, until Carl severs and squishes them.

Appearance

Melting, big-headed toy dolls and action figures — girl fashion dolls and soldier figures alike — oozing brown drug-goo as the heat softens their infused plastic-and-metal frames.

Role

Contagious, shield-piercing drug-elemental dolls that swarm the racers in the doll-packing room.

Relationships

Coblyn Corporation — Whose leaked elemental magic accidentally created them from doll stock.
el Asesino de la Melaza — A tattooed action-figure specimen among the swarm.
Carl — Breaks the sealed room and fends the swarm off the truck during the rescue.
