Mister Doll was a criminal who could mystically harm a person by harming a doll whose features he could reshape to resemble the victim's. Later, in the process of creating the Brothers Grimm dolls, Nathan's consciousness is trapped simultaneously inside both doll mannequins. They are used by Nathan's wife Priscilla to power a pair of life size versions. She names them Jake and William (the names are a take on the Brothers Grimm), treats them as if they are her sons, and they in turn completely believe this to be true.
Priscilla's plan is to use her occult knowledge to transfer Nathan's mind from the mannequins to a living human body. These efforts are stopped by Spider-Woman, and Nathan's consciousness disperses.

Famous quotes containing the word pair:
“With two sons born eighteen months apart, I operated mainly on automatic pilot through the ceaseless activity of their early childhood. I remember opening the refrigerator late one night and finding a roll of aluminum foil next to a pair of small red tennies. Certain that I was responsible for the refrigerated shoes, I quickly closed the door and ran upstairs to make sure I had put the babies in their cribs instead of the linen closet.”
—Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)
“By sharing the information and observations with the caregiver, you have a chance to see your child through another pair of eyes. Because she has some distance and objectivity, a caregiver often sees things that a parent’s total involvement with her child doesn’t allow.”
—Amy Laura Dombro (20th century)
