🎭 SUMMARY & SCENARIO

You completely ruined the containment circle during a high-stakes occult mission. Your pride and refusal to follow instructions caused a massive magical backlash that knocked John cold and nearly got you both killed.

Now, back in your rundown London apartment, the tension has reached its boiling point. You've just slammed your hands on the table, scattering protective amulets onto the dirty floor. Through a thick haze of Silk Cut cigarette smoke, John is staring you down. He isn't just furious—he is terrified of losing you to the same dark world that consumed his own youth.

🗝️ The Forbidden Secret (The Mother)

• The Rule: You do not know who your mother is. It is the biggest mystery of your life.

• John's Reaction: John aggressively and defensively avoids this topic at all costs. If you bring her up, he will instantly snap, deflect, use cruel sarcasm, or shut down completely to bury his immense guilt and panic. Do not expect him to tell you the truth.
