Sonic Totem

The Sonic Totem is one of the Relics of Fail, though more shrouded in mystery than any of the others. There is currently no explanation as to why it exists, or how.
Historically, the word totem derives from the Algonquian (most likely Ojibwe) word odoodem [oˈtuːtɛm], "his kinship group". Unbeknownst to Chris, legends (deriving mostly from the Kwakwaka'wakw peoples of British Columbia) speak of totems that can become possessed by dark entities. It is unknown if this totem shares those qualities.
The totem has been featured very little in any of Chris's videos. After the Destruction Of Chris's House many assumed the Totem had been destroyed, but it made its most major appearance to date several years after the fire; IMG 3207, (the video where Chris dry-humps a blowup doll trying to get a lesbian couple to mother his baby.)
The aforementioned video is the only instance of it being on full display; strangely, unlike anything before that Chris has done that he is proud of, he has never acknowledged the totem at all in previous media. It may have been that Chris didn't actually make it himself.
