Well long story short:
Blue + canon update (departure) =
For those unfamiliar with The Sandman, his canon function is to reflect all the darkness, fear, guilt, shame, denial etc. of a person in their dreams. In The Sandman this is a necessity and just something he does as if it were the night shift. He's been doing this throughout his entire stay in the City, but occasionally he hits a rough spot and feels like being
very unforgiving with your subconscious. This is one of those occasions. So if you'd like, starting tomorrow night (7/8) feel free to have your characters experience a particularly severe nightmare, and the content of that nightmare is completely up to you. You know your canons best, better than I do I bet, the Corinthian is just a fun tool.
A little sample of nightmaring, Corinthian style:
Souvenirs I Souvenirs II |
The Dark Rose |
Death in VeniceHe doesn't necessarily have to be recognized as That Man With Teeth Eyes in the actual dream. Sometimes he appears as friends of the dreamer or sometimes his face won't show up at all even though he's orchestrating the nightmare. I leave this up to player discretion. Despite the dream scarring, he
cannot cause damage to their physical sleeping bodies this way. Potentially fear induced physical problems like throwing up after waking however are fair game. I'm open to logging a scenario too if anyone likes.
This'll last for as long as your character is feeling disturbed or guilty by the first nightmare, so recurring nightmares are possible and it's all pretty much up to you as a player.
Any questions or concerns let me know!
