Voodoo

Voodoo was a type of magick that utilized voodoo dolls and voodoo pins in order to torture and kill a subject from afar. Mother Talzin used a lock of Count Dooku's hair in order to conjure a voodoo doll, which she proceeded to pierce with voodoo pins and sink into flame as a means to inflict great pain on Dooku. Voodoo was especially useful as a long-distance tactic, since Talzin and Dooku were on different planets.
