  • At high levels, one of these becomes useful in defeating the NS.

[edit] References

  • A "Levitating Potato" is very similar to the hovering potato which Bender has to peel blindfolded, in the episode entitled "30% Iron Chef" of the animated television series Futurama.
  • The second line of the haiku references the song Hovering Sombrero by They Might Be Giants. (Note that this familiar predates the introduction of the Hovering Sombrero familiar.)
  • The first line of the haiku refers to the quote "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth" from the Bible (Exodus 21:24).
  • The special arena message is a reference to the Lazy Lester song I'm a Lover Not a Fighter.
  • The wrapping of tentacles may be a reference to the "Archie's Weird Mysteries #3" in which a giant potato uses tentacle vines to turn people into mindless slaves.
