History

Description

Principles

Appearance

As the Sockpuppet is only comprised of Nowhere, it has true body to speak of. It presses Nowhere against the realm housing the Mansus, or out from within the fabric of history, so that it might present itself to our world. The forms it does take can usually be written off as the brain finding patterns where none exist, that the tree or carpet appear to have faces only because you looked hard enough.

Summon the left eye of the Sockpuppet
The Sockpuppet cannot tread the Histories without tearing them asunder. When it’s curiosity is tempted most, it will cast its eye to the world below. We shouldn’t hope to attract that, but with the right temptations and a great deal of Lantern, we may call down a reflection of one.
A blinding white slowly replaces the light, eventually turning the slightest shadows to sunspots. As the contrast finally overtakes the room, one of the shadows wink. When our sight returns, we know we are watched.
