Call of the White Mask

"It calls to me," Within a white room inside the stone cold walls of the Belkane Facility, a man sat upon the ground, bound by a straight jacket, speaking things of the maniacal sort, "I... I need it... I need it now!" He yelled, beckoning a release from the chains that restrict him and yet none heeded his call, none but a single entity outside his door; a single entity standing quite tall.

That tall being, faceless and thin, stood staring as though death itself come to lay claim upon its prize and yet it did nothing but watch, but watching was not all it did, and yet watching was enough to stir such an insane fit.

"Let me out!" He cried to the very heavens and the heavens did not hear his cries.

Meanwhile,

In the depths of the city,

A single man stood over a corpse freshly killed in the fight. Blood stained hands dripped heavy with crimson life and the looming presence of one bearing that ghastly visage remained living, breathing, staring down at that corpse as though a beautiful painting after the long tiring toil yet still fresh in its oils.

Elsewhere,

She gorged her pills in hopes of holding it back,

He drowned himself in work day and night to keep his sanity in tact,

Another ran to a place of solitude,

And others simply gave in knowing not what else to do.

The call of the White Mask was much too strong for the might of men to avoid,

Saner minds were given to the void,

And yet for others, a more benign spirit employed,

Still for most, such sanity was destroyed.

No sleep for the sleepless,

Sleeping sleepiness the sleeper slept less,

Yet still sleeping a sleep deeper kept in darkness.

So... you've heard of it too, eh?

Weirdos wearing white masks going around killing people. Kinda sickening if you ask me... it was bad enough when ordinary criminals went around doing these things... now it's become a practice for some kind of religious cult?

Anyway, if you hear anything or if you see anything, let me know. We could use any information we can get on these psychos. And don't go taking matters into your hands though. Seems these people aren't hesitant to kill at will.

• Find and Kill/Apprehend/Arrest the White Masks.
  • Use whatever means necessary, but carry all caution when going against a Mask as they are considered extremely dangerous. Keep in mind, local authorities will frown upon the personal killing of the Masks, preferring it best to execute them via an official death penalty. Thus personal objectives are to be carried out with all risks and consequences given.

Sometimes I see it... that... that thing... I don't know what it is and.. it's not like it can talk, but when I see it... it's like it's speaking to me.

I don't remember what it tells me.. and I don't even remember if I ever really saw it.. I just... I wake up and there's blood on my hands and on my clothes and I don't know how it got there.

Everything just feels like a dream...

But they're after me now.

Cops.. and people looking to kill me for the things I've done... things I don't even remember doing.

I... I have to find out whats going on...

Even if it kills me...

• Survive while being pursued by authorities, hunted by the vengeful, and enduring the call of the Mask.
  • The Call of the Mask will be given at random by the overseeing Administrator at which point, affected characters will be rendered feral, losing all manner of cognitive control, and submitting to the consciousness of "the mask."
    • The Consciousness of the Mask is a point in which the affected characters are rendered outside of their own control. During these times, the environment shifts to that of an alternate reality and everything appears vastly different as governed by that of the overseeing administrator.
