| CLASS | Plant-Parasitic Spirit |
|---|---|
| DOMAIN | Hotel, past and present |
| DANGER | High |
| MAIN THEME | Vessel, wall, sudden growth |
The essence is cultivated or drawn forth through the hotel owner’s experiments. The pot serves as the initial vessel, but not the final anchor.
Origin and Manifestations
After being banished, it retreats into the wall and may reappear on the floor above. A knife can help pry out the hidden mass, but direct intervention provokes an attack.
Erotic Nature
Its erotic nature is parasitic: it seeks to enter a crack, crevice, or opening and grow where the body does not expect a foreign presence. Contact is perceived as taking root in new soil.
Countermeasures and Cost
Act simultaneously in the past and the present. Damaging the vessel is not enough—you must deprive the creature of a place to take root. Fire disperses the spores through the ventilation system.
