The Walrus Jar (Japanese: トドの壺) is a Jar in 
Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer.
Pressing
Pressing a back on a Walrus Jar will cause a Thiefwalrus to pop out of the jar, move in a straight line in the direction Shiren is facing, steal the first non-Jar item it passes over, return to Shiren, place the item into the jar, and leave. The Thiefwalrus will travel [Data needed] spaces. If it does not encounter an item, it will simply return without an item, and the "back" will be lost. The Thiefwalrus can travel over water, but not through walls. As Jars cannot be inside other Jars, the Theifwalrus will not pick up Jars it encounters. The items placed inside the Jar can be retrieved either by breaking the Jar (by Throwing it against a wall) or by using an Extraction Scroll; however, the latter method will not return a "back" to the jar.
Throwing
Throwing a Walrus Jar before all of its "backs" have been Pressed will break the Jar as normal, but will also cause a number of confused Thiefwalrus' equal to the number of remaining "backs" to fall out of the Jar (in addition to any items that may be inside it).
Tips For Use
- While not terribly efficient, In a pinch Walrus Jars are a simple way to pick up the items in the 2x2 island spaces that appear in some rooms.
- It is very possible to steal a (non jar) item from a Dungeon Shop without alerting the Shopkeeper by using the jar from just outside the shop entrance.
- Throwing a "fresh" Walrus Jar can actually be quite profitable, since defeating a Thiefwalrus before it steals from you causes it to drop a random item. Normally this is difficult and risky, but since the Thiefwalruses from the Jar will be Confused, they cannot steal from Shiren, and will prove much easier to defeat.
