“This Wintersday will be full of wonder!
— Toymaker Tixx
Toymaker Tixx is a famous asuran toymaker. He owns a massive golem-shaped airship called Tixx's Infinirarium that also serves as his toy workshop. Tixx leads the Funwerks Krewe and is accompanied by his mechamagical golem named Toxx. Toymaker Tixx first appeared in Wintersday: The Wondrous Workshop of Toymaker Tixx and has returned in subsequent Wintersday festivals since.
Talking to him in Divinity's Reach gives the player a Tixx's Gift once per day.
Tixx flew his Infinirarium to Cantha alongside Pact airships to assist the Elder Dragon Aurene's allied forces against the enraged Elder Dragon Soo-Won and the Void horde during the Battle for the Jade Sea in 1335 AE.[1] |

Dialogue[edit]
In Tixx's Infinirarium[edit]
- Before events begin
- Greetings, celebrator of Wintersday! Welcome to my aerial lab! Toxx is around here somewhere. If you need anything, let her know.
- Toxx?
- Toxx is my golem and my dearest creation. I designed her myself. Her particular circuitry has never been attempted before, but I'm confident my design is solid.
- What's all this machinery?
- That's for toy production, of course. This is a toy workshop. What did you expect me to handcraft each of the hundreds of toys we produce every day?
- What sort of toys do you make?
- Many sorts. I like to adapt my creations to local designs—not simply in concept, but in materials and style as well. My machines are quite versatile.
- So, you travel a lot?
- Yes, when it's appropriate. Normally, my lab is docked in an undisclosed location. But if I need to travel for a special event like this one, I can simply move the entire lab.
- I see.
- I see.
- I guess not.
- I'm sure.
- Will do.
Plush Ventari[edit]
- During first Plush Ventari phase
- It's absurdly difficult to keep these machines in working order! If they're not back on line shortly, my entire schedule will be thrown off!
- What can I do?
- Oh, good. I was hoping you'd offer to help. Destroy those tar elementals, then carry their ooze back to the machines. It's quite simple.
- Then what happens?
- Then my machine should return to fully operational status, and I can deliver on my promises. I've got toys to deliver and no time to waste.
- I'm on it.
- I'll see what I can do.
- That's too bad. Bye.
- During second Plush Ventari phase
- Those grubby skritt intruders are mucking around with my carefully calibrated machinery. Please remove them! Expediently! Or we'll have a catastrophic meltdown. Of some sort.
- Could they really do that much damage?
- My friend, I never exaggerate. My process here is a fine-tuned machine of fine-tuned machines. The slightest difficulty, and the entire schedule is bunk. I implore you, please resolve this.
- I'm on it.
- Got it.
- During third Plush Ventari phase
- More skritt! Don't they have better things to do than harass my toys? I'm sure there are more valuable figurines elsewhere.
- What's the problem?
- The Ventari toys were created with a drive to grow plants, but skritt are stealing the plant food necessary for the process.
- I'll see what I can do.
- Seems they want yours. Good luck.
- During fourth Plush Ventari phase
- Oh, hmm, that's unexpected. The Ventaris' alumination matrix is overcompensating for their passivity and creating malfunctioning turrets.
- Is that dangerous?
- Undoubtedly. The turrets themselves are rogue weapons, and additionally, they've turned the toys against everything that moves.
- Leave them to me.
- Got it.
- During fifth Plush Ventari phase
- Oh, phooey. Toxx has glitched again. If she keeps stomping around, she'll break everything on the ship! Deal with it, will you? I'm up to my ears in work.
- Do you know what happened?
- Oh, I don't know. A short circuit. A faulty wire. A nonstandard fluctuating of metahypoflux goo. I can't focus on that right now. Please just take care of it.
- I'll see what I can do.
- Will do.
Princess Doll[edit]
- During first Princess Doll phase
- Accuracy occasionally comes at a price. I've made the princess dolls too realistic, and now they're on the verge of throwing tantrums like spoiled brats.
- What can we do?
- I am terribly busy. You, on the other hand, could generously offer me assistance. Find the dolls the tributary treasure they're demanding, and they'll shut up. Eventually.
- Got it.
- Good-bye.
- During second Princess Doll phase
- What a mess! One of my assembly golems glitched and prematurely activated its sleep mode. Now there are unfinished princess dolls everywhere!
- Unfinished how?
- They're missing their final-stage paint coat. Interestingly, the dolls seem to know it. Some are panicking, while others are hiding.
- Anything I can do?
- Fetch a plasma paint cannon and color the dolls. That will give me time to reprogram the sleeping golem.
- Sounds easy enough.
- I see. Thanks.
- That's unfortunate.
- During third Princess Doll phase
- Those pesky rodents have returned. Quickly, exterminate them all! Ah—the skritt, that is. Not the princess dolls.
- What do they want now?
- They're after that treasure you gave the princesses. The poor dolls don't stand a chance against incisors of that magnitude.
- I'm on it.
- Happy to assist.
- During fourth Princess Doll phase
- Oh, hmm, that's unexpected. The Ventaris'[sic] alumination matrix is overcompensating for their passivity and creating malfunctioning turrets.
- Is that dangerous?
- Undoubtedly. The turrets themselves are rogue weapons, and additionally, they've turned the toys against everything that moves.
- Leave them to me.
- Got it.
- During fifth Princess Doll phase
- Oh, phooey. Toxx has glitched again. If she keeps stomping around, she'll break everything on the ship! Deal with it, will you? I'm up to my ears in work.

- Oh, I don't know. A short circuit. A faulty wire. A nonstandard fluctuating of metahypoflux goo. I can't focus on that right now. Please just take care of it.
- I'll see what I can do.
- Will do.
Toy Soldier[edit]
- During first Toy Soldier phase
- More skritt! Don't they have better things to do than harass my toys? I'm sure there are more valuable figurines elsewhere.
- What's the problem?
- The Ventari toys were created with a drive to grow plants, but skritt are stealing the plant food necessary for the process.
- I'll see what I can do.
- Seems they want yours. Good luck.
- During second Toy Soldier phase
- Oh, hmm, that's unexpected. The Ventaris'[sic] alumination matrix is overcompensating for their passivity and creating malfunctioning turrets.
- Is that dangerous?
- Undoubtedly. The turrets themselves are rogue weapons, and additionally, they've turned the toys against everything that moves.
- Leave them to me.
- Got it.
- During third Toy Soldier phase
- Those pesky rodents have returned. Quickly, exterminate them all! Ah—the skritt, that is. Not the princess dolls.
- What do they want now?
- They're after that treasure you gave the princesses. The poor dolls don't stand a chance against incisors of that magnitude.
- I'm on it.
- Happy to assist.
- During fourth Toy Soldier phase
- I beg you. Would you be so kind as to discourage the princesses from riding the "ponies"?
- What do you mean "ponies"?
- The princess dolls love to ride the Ventari toys, which they have deemed "ponies." Unfortunately, they tend to break them.
- Hmm, I'll think about it.
- Why do we need to prevent this?
- Things have been escalating, resulting in a greater number of Ventari toys destroyed. This puts us even further behind schedule! We simply can't afford it.
- Aren't you asking us to break toys?
- Well, yes. But this will send a message to the princess dolls that we will not tolerate this behavior. It will hopefully help put a stop to the fighting.
- Okay.
- All right.
- Will do.
- During fifth Toy Soldier phase
- Glitch! I overcalibrated the charr toys' aggression gamut, and they're attacking the gift-giving apparatus. Its destruction would ruin Wintersday!
- Could they really do that much damage?
- Of course! My toys' advanced programming makes them capable of mischief. Or in this case, mayhem. They need to be dealt with, and fast!
- Leave them to me.
- Got it.
- During sixth Toy Soldier phase
- Oh, phooey. Toxx has glitched again. If she keeps stomping around, she'll break everything on the ship! Deal with it, will you? I'm up to my ears in work.
- Do you know what happened?
- Oh, I don't know. A short circuit. A faulty wire. A nonstandard fluctuating of metahypoflux goo. I can't focus on that right now. Please just take care of it.
- I'll see what I can do.
- Will do.
Plush Griffon[edit]
- During first Plush Griffon phase
- Accuracy occasionally comes at a price. I've made the princess dolls too realistic, and now they're on the verge of throwing tantrums like spoiled brats.
- What can we do?
- I am terribly busy. You, on the other hand, could generously offer me assistance. Find the dolls the tributary treasure they're demanding, and they'll shut up. Eventually.
- Got it.
- Good-bye.
- During second Plush Griffon phase

- Anything I can do?
- Fetch a plasma paint cannon and color the dolls. That will give me time to reprogram the sleeping golem.
- Sounds easy enough.
- I see. Thanks.
- That's unfortunate.
- During third Plush Griffon phase
- The erroneous behavior of the princess dolls continues to mystify me! See how they're chasing the plush griffons from their aerie? Hmm, they probably shouldn't be doing that.
- What should I do?
- There's nothing to do but take their aerie back by force. Maybe the dolls will turn their attention elsewhere. I really should fix that design.
- You really should.
- I'll handle it.
- During fourth Plush Griffon phase
- I beg you. Would you be so kind as to discourage the princesses from riding the "ponies"?
- What do you mean "ponies"?
- The princess dolls love to ride the Ventari toys, which they have deemed "ponies." Unfortunately, they tend to break them.

- Okay.
- All right.
- Will do.
- During fifth Plush Griffon phase
- Ah, interesting! Observe the toy soldiers and their mortars. I expect this unintended hostility comes from protection protocols being too rigorous. See how they attack anything that moves?
- Isn't that dangerous?
- I suppose so. If I'm calculating correctly, those mortars could destroy the entire ship if left to their own devices.
- Leave them to me.
- Got it.
- During sixth Plush Griffon phase
- Glitch! I overcalibrated the charr toys' aggression gamut, and they're attacking the gift-giving apparatus. Its destruction would ruin Wintersday!
- Could they really do that much damage?
- Of course! My toys' advanced programming makes them capable of mischief. Or in this case, mayhem. They need to be dealt with, and fast!
- Leave them to me.
- Got it.
- During seventh Plush Griffon phase
- Hmm, there is an unusually large amount of roosting plush griffons around. Perhaps my design is not entirely sound. I wonder...maybe a few adjustments...perhaps I...
- Shouldn't something be done?
- Oh? Oh, yes, probably. The plush griffons seem to be attracted to the nests. Destroy those, and the griffons shouldn't bother us anymore.
- Got it.
- I'll leave you to it.
- During eighth Plush Griffon phase
- Oh, phooey. Toxx has glitched again. If she keeps stomping around, she'll break everything on the ship! Deal with it, will you? I'm up to my ears in work.
- Do you know what happened?
- Oh, I don't know. A short circuit. A faulty wire. A nonstandard fluctuating of metahypoflux goo. I can't focus on that right now. Please just take care of it.
- I'll see what I can do.
- Will do.
Toy Golem[edit]
- During first Toy Golem phase
- Accuracy occasionally comes at a price. I've made the princess dolls too realistic, and now they're on the verge of throwing tantrums like spoiled brats.
- What can we do?
- I am terribly busy. You, on the other hand, could generously offer me assistance. Find the dolls the tributary treasure they're demanding, and they'll shut up. Eventually.

- During eighth Toy Golem phase
- A golem toy has gone haywire. It's building rogue turrets around the gift-giving apparatus and inciting the other toys!
- What do you want me to do about it?
- Get up there and destroy it before it damages the apparatus! Please and thank you and cherries! Now, go!
- All right.
- I'll handle it.
- During ninth Toy Golem phase
- Oh, phooey. Toxx has glitched again. If she keeps stomping around, she'll break everything on the ship! Deal with it, will you? I'm up to my ears in work.
- Do you know what happened?
- Oh, I don't know. A short circuit. A faulty wire. A nonstandard fluctuating of metahypoflux goo. I can't focus on that right now. Please just take care of it.

In Divinity's Reach[edit]
- Before receiving a gift from Tixx
- To further my bid to become the face of Wintersday in Divinity's Reach, I will provide every person who speaks to me with a special gift!
- I'd like one! (option hidden if bag is full or received gift today; gives Tixx's Gift)
- I notice that it's snowing all over the city now. Is that your work?
- Of course! My Infinirarium's festivity generators are sending wonder high into the sky over the city.
- Is that...safe?
- No need to worry—it's quite harmless and in fact partially holographic. Regional ground temperatures make the risk to wildlife effectively nonexistent.
- How amazing! Is it safe to glide around up there? Asking for a friend.
- It's completely safe, but I must caution your friend against approaching the Infinirarium's exterior. The high altitude and emitted snowflakes could present difficulties to aerial navigation.
- I'll pas your advice along. Have a happy Wintersday!
- That's fascinating. Thanks for lifting everyone's holiday spirits!
- It really improves the ambience. Thanks for your hard work.
- Not now, thanks.
- (If inventory is full)
- I'd like one, but I don't have room in my bags.
- After receiving a gift from Tixx
- To further my bid to become the face of Wintersday in Divinity's Reach, I will provide every person who speaks to me with a special gift!
- I've already gotten a present today. Thanks!
- Not now, thanks.
Quotes[edit]
- Greets
- Well, hello there!
- Clock's ticking. Not much time for talking.
- You're a wacky little dolyak, aren't you.
- 'Tis a wound-up day, wouldn't you say?
Wintersday ambient dialogue[edit]
- This Wintersday will be full of wonder!
- Okay, who misplaced the mistletoe?
- Oh. Oh! Oh my! I'm not brainstorming. I'm having a brain hurricane!
- Cuckoo! Another outstanding toy idea just occurred to me!
