Then my question is. If it's not about mental instability. What is it? 👀 It can't just be their looks, can it?

@The Savant

What else should it be about? Y'all out here making the worst. What else am I supposed to look at??

Nocturnal Memoirs: An Urban-Fantasy Mafia Epic

I feel like some of the people in this group have a kink for mentally unstable men. I won't say who or say it with too much certainty. It's just a hunch.

@The Savant

Now listen here. It has nothing to do with mental instability. They just happen to be for some reason xD Leave a girl alone.

Jack Reddington

Jack Reddington

29 | He/him | Mr. Unhinged/Mafia

Description: Jack was initially one of Vincent's collectibles. Vincent admired the man's display of his gyft, and planned to keep it indefinitely. But, when Jack showed hunger, and a willingness, nay, a need to sow chaos, to reduce the human spirit to ash, Vincent started getting other ideas.

After much therapy, Vincent has managed to tear apart and piece back together the broken mind of this man. A man who finds humour at funerals.

Now? Now Jack is fairly functional, more than he was. His gyft stops acting like an autoimmune disorder, well, as long as he continually seeks Vincent's ‘corrections’.

With Vincent's help, Jack is a blood-thirsty capo, ready to inject fear into any who oppose The Boss. He enjoys his own mental games, dragging someone down to their own personal hell, far enough where they become hysterical, vegetable state-like, homicidal, or suicidal, depending on the person.

Gyft: The Eyes of Madness

Within Jack's aura of about thirty feet, physical and hallucinated eyes of madness begin to grow on anything - walls, furniture, even human bodies. When they open, they begin to speak directly to the mind. They know knowledge that should be impossible to know, as if the person's very demons are speaking.

If there are enough eyes focused on a person, these whispering will evolve into hallucinations, forcing a person to relive their most damning moments. The whisperings on top of it begin to fray at a person's mind.

Eventually, and this is entirely dependant on the person, but the end result is the person becomes hysterical, homicidal, suicidal, or vegetable state-like. And they will stay like this until the eyes close or are destroyed.

Jack can use these eyes of madness to see beyond his position. However, when there are eyes of madness open, Jack's own mind becomes a bit frayed. Long enough exposure, and Jack too, is at risk to go mad.

The physical eyes can be destroyed by conventional means. Though, the ones that are on the human body? They will require a person to stab or harm themselves to force the eye to close. The hallucinatory eyes can only be destroyed by shutting down Jack, or having an immunity to mental attacks.

@Estylwen

Is it ok for me to ask what's the point of the Industrial district then or? Like how would we go about discovering them?

Nocturnal Memoirs: An Urban-Fantasy Mafia Epic

Just so I understand, you can skip stages if you have enough?

Nocturnal Memoirs: An Urban-Fantasy Mafia Epic

Oh, I've heard this one before! You know you can always edit it in. :>

Nice collab!

@Estylwen

True. And thanks. We'll see what comes of it later.

Forgot to post it but I think the tone of this song would have been perfect for that post.
