The Platinum poppet is the rarefied version of the Iron maiden.
Characteristics[edit]
Platinum poppets are monsters with haunting appearances, resembling the ghosts of regal women. Their hair is charcoal black, their dress a pale white, sickly lavender skin, and their eyes a sinister red. The only warm color on their persons is the gold used for the frame of their underskirt cage.
How an iron maiden becomes a platinum poppet is unknown, but it is speculated that the souls of the late young girls who inhabit the iron maiden dolls became distraught and morbid in their futile quest for playmates. This desire for companionship would translate into the poppet's habit of keeping humans as pets.
