Hmmmmm… this teddy bear won't do much in combat but there might be one way… hmmm…

Notes

Has a special form of defense that prevents almost all damage:

<You attack>, but the worst of it cascades off the soldier's skin.

If you have Nostalgic Certainty/Tones/Comfort/Movements active, then only techniques use the same stat as the effect bonus go through; otherwise all rounds of combat are blocked.

Defeating one of these unlocks tin drone as a possible summon (for the day) from long lost nostalgia.

Eating one with Ghoultouched gives:

You crunch down on the soldier's form, regaining x Energy.
