Onion Cookie (LINE)

"What if a ghost appears?..."

- Onion Cookie

Onion Cookie is an S-grade cookie in LINE Cookie Run. She was first released on Halloween in Kakao Cookie Run, and subsequently was released on December 21, 2015 in LINE Cookie Run together with the release of Tower of Frozen Waves.

Skill
Enters Haunted House and goes through obstacles at a given interval. Extra points for going through obstacles. (More frequent visit to the Haunted House with upgrades.)

Description
''Your eyes will start to water if you get too close to this onion-based Cookie! And once she starts crying, she cannot stop. Mainly because her tears consist of onion juice, which cause her to cry even more. Poor thing. She is truly afraid of ghosts and weeps when scared. Perhaps one day she'll realize why her surroundings sometime become ghostly and clocks suddenly start ticking backward.''

Strategy
Onion Cookie is all about passing obstacles and her combi pet, Onion Fish, is perfect for her. She gains 5,001 points for each obstacle she passes through. She does not emit a mini Magnetic Aura when going through the haunted mansion, but it is not really needed anyway. Using treasures that slows Energy drain like the Supremely Yummy Monster Muffin and Specially made Flaming Cocktail are excellent for her so she can run for very long periods of time.

The faster she runs, the more obstacles she can pass through during her Haunted House ability. Using treasures that increases base speed such as Vroom Vroom Gold Kiwi Key or Super Spicy Red Hot Chili Drink might be interesting to try.

You may want to turn off Cheesecake Cookie and Special Force Cookie's Power+ abilities if you are planning on using her, because they could potentially destroy all the furniture she needs to pass through when they trigger preventing her from getting points. Ms. Do-Re-Mi and Mr. Fa-Sol-La-Si's Power+ abilities are worth keeping on as they do give Energy and doesn't last very long either.

During the Haunted House ability, the best course of path you can take is to follow the dressers. They are the most plentiful and are frequently next to each other and can help you score a lot of points.

In the time after using a power-up, hitting an obstacle, or just after leaving her haunted house, she is transparent. Make sure to take advantage of this by still continuing to pass through objects. She will not take damage and can still get bonus points.

Trivia

 * Onion Cookie finally breaks the streak of Cookies having only one combi so far as she has two. The first Cookie that started the 1 combi streak was Orange Cookie.
 * She is one of the fastest Cookie releases in the game thus far, being released only 10 days after Peach Cookie. It normally takes a couple of weeks to a month for a new Cookie release.
 * Onion Cookie has been featured in the Package Deals for 38 days, which is the longest out of all Cookies featured.
 * She has zero happy sprites (which is a stark contrast to Cherry Blossom Cookie, who is the opposite and has almost entirely happy sprites).
 * None of her sprites show her legs or feet, and she seems to run very slightly above ground. This further emphasizes that she is a ghost, spirit or a phantom.
 * However, on 10 May 2016, the official Cookie Run Tumblr blog confirmed that Onion Cookie does have legs (post since deleted), but can't be really seen because of "all those layers of her nightgown."
 * She is always teary because her tears are made of onion juice. It does not help that her combi pet, Onion Fish, sprays onion juice behind itself into her eyes every 12 seconds for 4 seconds (when fully upgraded).
 * When she becomes transparent and runs through obstacles, she freaks out more than usual.
 * If she runs out of Energy during her ability, she will continue regardless. When it finishes she will immediately faint, even if there's still a few more furniture she can run through.
 * She is the fourth Cookie to change the background music while running, after Rockstar Cookie, Mint Choco Cookie, and Peach Cookie, albeit temporarily like Peach Cookie.
 * She is the fifth Cookie to have his or her signature background music while his or her Skill is in use, the first four being the aforementioned Cookies as well as Adventurer Cookie.
 * Onion Cookie is the last Cookie released in 2015 on LINE. In Kakao, it was Red Bean Cookie.
 * Her background image, the haunted house, shows Adventurer Cookie's Cinnamon Rope (as well as either his or his ancestor's portrait).
 * This alludes to her possibly haunting Adventurer's former home.
 * When she is out of energy while running (not from hitting an obstacle), there are three frames in which her toy rabbit's expression changes.
 * During the Halloween Party 2016, Onion Cookie dressed up as the Corpse Bride.
