• Does from int((wt+2)/2) to wt+2 in damage, split evenly between physical and elemental damage. Extra points go to elemental damage.

• Grants stat gains based on the volleyball formula: SquareRoot(Weight).

References

• The first line of the description, "Hail the pumpkin queen", is a play on "Everyone hail to the Pumpkin King", an emphasized lyric of the song "This Is Halloween" from the movie The Nightmare Before Christmas.
• It is also possibly a play on the character names from "Jack and Jill": a Jack-O-Lantern/Jill-O-Lantern.
