Dummy

Dummy is a Dummy Shield in Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville. He is the leader of the Dummy Cult in Weirding Woods. During in-game events, he gets eaten by Dreadwood and the player must save him in order for him to return to his cult.

Once saved, the player can offer him Marshmallows and gain maximum overhealth and get self-healed for a while.

Origins

His name literally comes from dummy, a model or replica of a human being or someone idiotic.
