Indeed, very old school! Awesome, dreadful stuff here!

Oubliette is of French origin - to forget. Lock em up and throw away the key.

This does a great job of conjuring up madness. As a piece, I guess it lacks a final punch/twist that would put it over the top.

I'm very, very impressed with this. Excellent voice. I didn't mean to read it all in one sitting, but I did. I got a strong Watchman vibe from this as well, if not as dark.

Top marks! You must run a damn good campaign.

Of all of Cosmic Era submissions, I find this one the scariest.

The target could be inanimate, and you could tie a note to the arrow :P

This is one way to make the Oculas a lot more practical. Thinner, lighter, more durable. Really its a logical progression.

As for vulnerability to digital hacking, it would not be hard to work in analog displays as well as non-digital fiber optic channels.

You could also have smart materials which can shift between opaque and clear, which could switch between full VR (full opacity with display), none (full transparency) or augmented reality (full transparency + display).

He's actually my Occult guild persona... :P

He's in work, but here's his current physical description:

Illdus appears as a well-to-do middle-aged merchant, perhaps one with ties to, or at least aspirations towards nobility. Tall, thin and straight backed, with salt-and-pepper hair and a flamboyant mustache, he stands out in a crowd. He speaks loudly and almost always passionately on whatever issue has caught his attention at that point in time, and frequently rails against vice and sloth.

Those who deal with him behind closed doors see him as a profane, foolish, vice-ridden hypocrite - he accepts bribes, drinks heavily, and is frequently with escorts.

There is a third layer to him, the truth hidden by a clumsy lie, and the careful lie. He is not the slightest bit foolish or emotional. The thin public face, his weak 'private' face lie about a true private face of steel. Go to Comment

One could find their own pockets populated by something from https://strolen.com/viewing/What_Has_It_Got_in_Its_Pocketses when wearing this cloak.

Great use of 100 words! Go to Comment

I see no problem with a cursed ring with no upside. There are far worse dangers out there.

An alternate origin of this ring could be the Ring of Penance. Same effects, but its religious in nature, and used by monks/priests/pilgrims to show their devotion.

Good stuff and welcome aboard!
