Double Edit: So, I've been wondering about something, for a very long time now. Back in the very beginning of the game, I got a "Giggling Mandrake". It's not actually a pet, it's in the "Curiosities" section of the inventory, and you can use it(specifically it mentions playing with it), but everytime I have it just injures me. does it actually do anything? Is there actually a success you can get playing with it? Really wondering what it's point is ^^

It's primary use is in Knife-and-Candle, which is no longer running. I don't think there's much point to it until KaC starts up again.
