Description
PRE05 resembles a doll or puppet the size of an adult woman. It may be suspended from strings, regardless of whether there is any clear point to which the strings could be attached.

Unlike PREs such as PRE02, PRE05 rarely attacks or stalks victims directly, instead acting through P05A00 ("Puppets") and P05B00 ("Willing Dolls"). It frequently makes individuals into instances of P05A00 if it chooses them as victims or if it believes they may interfere with its plans, whatever those may be.

PRE05 is described as speaking in some sources. It identifies itself as female where relevant, but other behavior, such as whether it organizes its servants in any fashion or whether it allows them to gain power among themselves as they will, is more inconsistent.

PRE05's appearance, like those of many other PREs, tends to vary between accounts. Depending on the source, it may be described as being composed of wood, porcelain, plastic, cloth, or other materials. This is because, while it can be destroyed, usually through fire, it will always manifest through an existing instance of P05B00 which has been groomed to do so (the "Princess of Puppets"). Each new manifestation changes over the course of a variable amount of time to resemble a doll or puppet, the exact appearance of which is often different than that of the previous manifestation.

In addition to dolls and puppets, PRE05 is sometimes associated with spiders, usually in the context of being able to control their movements or having instances of P05B00 who use spider motifs.

While this distinction is considered functionally irrelevant, certain individuals believe that PRE05 is not the doll, but the strings attached to PRE05 and P05A00.
