Guide Voodoo Doll

The Guide Voodoo Doll is a summoning item for the Wall of Flesh. It is a guaranteed drop from Voodoo Demons, a fairly rare enemy in The Underworld.
When the doll is equipped as an accessory, it becomes possible for the player and other NPCs to kill the Guide with direct attacks from weapons (which normally would not damage him). If the item is dropped and destroyed by lava, then the Guide will instantly die, if he exists in the world. If the doll is destroyed in The Underworld (and the Guide exists), it will summon the Wall of Flesh.
As of 1.4.4 Guide Voodoo Dolls can be stacked up to 9,999. Throwing a stack of more than one into the lava will summon the Wall of Flesh, and kill the Guide, as well as killing a number of other randomly chosen NPCs in the world (including town pets and town slimes), equal to the number of dolls that were thrown. There are no other effects to doing this, however.
== Notes ==
* Only one Wall of Flesh can be summoned at once, so throwing a second doll into lava while a Wall of Flesh is currently spawned will waste the doll.
* If a dropped doll lands on a player who is standing in lava, the doll will sometimes be collected while also summoning the Wall of Flesh, making it reusable.
* The Wall of Flesh's sweep direction is determined by where the doll is dropped. If to the left of the world center (the player's initial world spawn point at the start of the game), the boss sweeps from left to right, and vice versa.
* Throwing the doll into the closest lava sea to the left or right end will cause the Wall of Flesh to despawn right after it spawns.
* On the , the Guide Voodoo Doll is not required to summon the Wall of Flesh. It can also be summoned by directly killing the Guide via lava in the Underworld.
