Woody Voodoo

**Woody Voodoo** is a 2021-introduced and all-around character. He is a human-sized living voodoo doll, created by Wendy Wonders to be her emergency boyfriend. She realized soon after she wasn't ready for a relationship yet and broke it off, leaving Hoodude in despair because being with Wendy was his life's purpose. After a long time, he picked himself up and found other things to enjoy about life. Romance itself still is one of his favorite topics, but a good sappy movie can accommodate that. Woody is the kind of person that is always willing to help and almost always looks at the bright side, to the point of hopeless naivety. He currently lives at Kindergrabin's.

## Character

### Personality

File:HooDoo victims.PNG
Woody is a kind soul, but with a penchant for melodrama. His main concern in life is being loved by Frankie, but he pursues it passively rather than actively. As a voodoo doll, he doesn't experience physical pain and seems oblivious to it, as such harm done to him is instead felt by any people near him or is felt by the owner of any item he is holding at the time of being harmed. Woody is often clumsy but is also always ready to help out, especially people he recognizes his own troubles in. Template:Source He enjoys poetry Template:Source and writing. Template:Source

### Appearance

Woody is a walking rag doll, with a mostly grey skin with patches of various hues of blue, with visible stitches. Blue felt strands hair and a black nose, Woody also sports a mouth with stitches connecting the lips (which still allow him to talk) and two differently colored button eyes, just like his creator Wendy Wonders. Additionally, he has various nails sticking out from his body.

## Abilities

Woody, a voodoo doll, has many biological abilities, acquired the day of his creation.

* **Voodoo**: Like a voodoo doll, when Woody is hurt, whoever is close to him or whose stuff he is holding will feel the pain for him, and suffer the respective consequences. Usually this effect creates a little spark around the zone affected, possibly a callback to his creator. He can transfer pain to others without holding their stuff, but only to males.
* **Pain Inability**: Woody is unable to feel pain and is hardly ever damaged, as he has been through several deadly situations without a scratch.

## Relationships

### Family

As a simulacrum, Woody does not have family in the same way natural creatures have. He and his creator, Wendy Wonders, do not view each other as family, though Wendy's parents do believe themselves to have responsibility for Woody's well-being.

For a short while, Woody lived with the Steins, but Wendy's parents eventually needed him out of the house for Wendy's sake. Mr. Stein arranged for Woody to live with Ms. Kindergrabin. Kindergrabin already had another adoptee of sorts, Michelle Vortex, but it is unknown how Woody views her.

### Friends

Despite that Timmy Plasience is a pain-magnet and Woody is just the same - only he passes on pain to others near him - Woody and Heath hang out occasionally and are on good terms with each other. This can be seen in webisodes such as "Beach Party" and "Hoodoo That Voodoo That You Do".

Woody is good friends with Sarah Screams, who has a locker near his. Sarah likes Woody because he is a good listener, and Woody, being a sensitive soul, just appreciates all positive attention he gets.

### Romance

Woody was made specifically to act as Wendy's boyfriend, and only to be so, and was incredibly scarred when he learned she did not have feelings for him, considering he had failed his sole purpose, the main cause of his miserable and gloomy personality. However, most recently, he has overcame the rejection and has become more happy and rather oblivious to anything else around him.
He was recently Elissabeth Murrays's date, though the status of their relationship is unclear.

## Classic Monster

While not being based on a monster, Woody is inspired by the myth of the "Voodoo Doll". These dolls are said to depict specific indivisuals and are used to inflict pain upon them by inserting pins into the doll causing pain in the same body-part as the target.

Pop-culture identifies these dolls as coming from Voodoo practice but in reality they have no origins there, rather hailing from medieval British witchcraft. Filmmakers and Authors during the early 20th century often made Voodoo Practitioners use these dolls due to them affiliating the Voodoo Religion with occult black-magic and the concept stuck.
