"Those who saw the shoes would chop off each other’s ankles to wear them, blinded with desire…"
- Hod

The Red Shoes is an Abnormality Enemy, being the second Abnormality Battle on the Floor Of Literature. Defeating The Red Shoes will make Hod's Floor level up to Level 3 and provide its 3 Abnormality Pages: Glitter, Obsession, and Axe.

The Red Shoes' stage is composed of a museum of sorts with a large pane of glass emanating light and has red carpet laying on the ground which has cuts and tears in it. And in the background their are blood-soaked mannequins with their legs cut off and the legs being presented in the background in bloodied collection podiums standing upright.

The Red Shoes consists of 2 enemies, the Left Shoe and the Right Shoe. Both resemble a red high-heel holding a bloodied, cut-off leg. The bone of the upper leg is exposed, and is used as a handle for a blood-stained axe. The Left Shoe is additionally lined with spikes along the bone and top of the heel.

The Left Shoe has 50 HP and 40 Stagger. It has 1 Speed Dice of 6~6 and starts at 1  Light.

The Right Shoe has 70 HP and 30 Stagger. It has 1 Speed Dice of 1~1 and starts at 2 Max Lights, but starts with 1  Light active.

The Left Shoe uses a Deck of just 1 Abnormality Exclusive Combat Page and the Right Show uses a Deck with 2 Abnormality Exclusive Combat Pages. The Right Shoe is the only enemy with Passive Abilities, and has only 1 Passive Ability:

• Attracted: Prioritizes targets with Bleed Bleed X
  For the Scene, take X damage and subtract one third of the Bleed
  stack every time the character rolls an Offensive die. (Rounded up).

 Behavior and Decks

The Red Shoes use a simple deck that focuses on Bleed Bleed X
For the Scene, take X damage and subtract one third of the Bleed
stack every time the character rolls an Offensive die. (Rounded up). The Left Shoe will continuously attempt to afflict its target with Bleed Bleed X
For the Scene, take X damage and subtract one third of the Bleed
stack every time the character rolls an Offensive die. (Rounded up), while the Right Shoe will target the Librarian already afflicted with Bleed Bleed X

stack every time the character rolls an Offensive die. (Rounded up). Its weakness lies in the low speed of the Right Shoe, as its attacks can easily be redirected.

Librarians

Hod Combat Entrance "Those who saw the shoes would chop off each other’s ankles to wear them, blinded with desire…" On Kill "It was risky, but I can handle this much." Death "My body feels numb, what do I do…" Assistants: Combat Entrance "The damned shoes got redder with people’s blood." On Kill "I almost got charmed for a moment there. I was so close to losing my mind."
