| CLASS | Animated Object Spirit |
|---|---|
| DOMAIN | Manor basement |
| DANGER | Low when rules are followed |
| MAIN THEME | Music and forgotten attention |
The spirit was acquired along with an old gramophone. It did not arise from a person’s death, but from an object that had been believed to be inhabited for far too long, and then forgotten.
Origin and Manifestations
While the music plays, the creature sways in the darkness, waiting to frighten. If a person approaches without fear, it retreats and vanishes. True aggression begins only when the melody is rudely interrupted.
Erotic Nature
Its dance has an almost flirtatious quality: the spirit wants to be looked at, feared, and yet approached. This is not carnal lust, but a hunger for attention, similar to the desire of a performer who needs an audience.
Countermeasures and Cost
Do not turn off the gramophone during the manifestation. Calmly close the distance and let the melody play out. Destroying the device may free the spirit from its anchor, but it is unknown whether it will vanish or begin searching for a new source of music.
