The Central Library Logs

Phase two has started, make your choice…

1. The nightmares are getting worse. They have gone from just leaving marks from injuries and dirt from wherever you went, but now… now people are being pulled into your dreams with you. They will have to live out the nightmare with you and the stakes are higher. You can die.

2. Ghosts are wandering the halls of the Library. They seem to be talking to someone, maybe from their life. Maybe you know them. Whatever the case is, the ghostly echoes of their voices send a chill down your spine. Listen carefully… it may be a warning. Maybe a message for a past long gone. Just be careful to know the friendly ghosts from the ones that want you to die…

3. Most of the ghosts that wander the shelves are only talking, but those that want to wreak their pain on others exist. Doors are appearing in strange places. They are dilapidated and ornate in ways you can’t even imagine. They have a Japanese feel to them and you might be curious to enter the rooms beyond… the floors are broken where once beautiful wood floors and tatami mats once were. It’s dark and desperately cold… and there will always be a ghost waiting to make you suffer their pain within. You can’t kill them… but if you have the right tool…

4. People that have lost people and feel guilty for surviving (they must feel guilty!) are noticing that tattoos are spreading on their skin. There has been a tattoo maiden that has managed to touch you at some point in your dreams and now you are seeing her in random places in dreams and when awake. In fact… she’s following you… and it might be wise to not let her touch you again.

5. Crimson butterflies are starting to flutter about the library, leaving trails of sparkling embers. You don’t know why they are there, but they seem to be following some people about, specifically ghosts or twins. They leave behind an ominous feeling and should one touch you, you are hit with vivid scenes of twins being forced to strangle the eldest of the set… and in one, darkness swallows the world because the sacrifice failed…

6. One door seems to remain, dark and ominous branching off from the shadowy aisle of folklore. Should you walk through, you may see one of a few scenes… Little girls are running in a game of demon tag… but the moment the last is caught the scene melts away. A dark room is replaced with a girl screaming in fear. She’s tied to a chair before a noh mask with spikes in the eye is shoved onto her face. The screaming is unreal… And even with the girl dies and blood drips to the floor, people fade away with cries of ‘my eyes!’ echoing in the darkness. Be still. Be silent. Maybe she won’t find you.

7. Wild Card: remember it is Fatal Frame styled, but you are free to bring in your own demons... anything bad can happen. The shadows are taking definitive shape.


(PLEASE ASK IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS! Also, you need the Camera Obscura to kill ghosts, there are FIVE hidden all over the Library. If you want to be a candidate for the carrier of the camera... speak up in Plurk when this link is posted!)
