= Brian Glover, Writer of Mysteries That Became True =

== Attributes ==
Psyche 20

Strength 5

Endurance 17

Warfare 5

== Powers ==
'''Umbra Mastery''' (50 points)

== Domain ==
The Glover Estate (Neverborn Mansion)
* Type: Personal Domain 1 (The Estate is an extremely large house, but it is still a house - it gets cramped with more than fifteen people in it.)
* Security: Guarded 4 (The Estate has a mind of its own, and while, post its master awakening and becoming one with the Umbra, it is loyal and loving to him, it is still an eldritch monster of the Umbra - and it is very good at using it to protect itself and those it permits within. It especially likes turning those it dislikes into the guilty parties into complex murders of other intruders, leading to them being arrested for crimes everyone except them remembers committing).
* Control: Control of Destiny 4 (Brian was right - the house really was haunting him, and he wasn't wrong it that it wasn't that malevolent so much as an alien curiosity. Its trick doors extend through the cosmos like tentacles, and a good and intriguing bit of mystery invite it to manifest nearby to be a backdrop.)

'''Bad Stuff 6'''

'''Points:''' Attributes 47 + Powers 50 + Domain 9 + Stuff -6  = 100

== Background ==
Brian Glover is a pen name for Frank Morley, who has always been kind of a weird guy. Even as a kid, he loved two things: Mysteries, and scaring people. All in good fun of course, but his nannies tended to quit or be goths, and on Halloween, people dared each other to go to his house, even as he became the most popular kid in school for a bit. He suspects it's a combination of some kind of neurodivergence leading to obsession and his parents both being involved in death - mom was a mortician and dad was a forensic scientist. Actual corpses never scared him so much as the idea of becoming one - and then he realized other people were scared too, and he realized he found the fear comforting in a sense.

He didn't have the same patience to follow either of his parents, but he loved writing, and he has a natural grasp of character - he initially wanted to be a director in Hollywood, but then he saw how screenwriters were treated and decided it was a bit much for even him, especially because this was the era of franchise and nostalgia obsession. But then he realized something - horror, and mystery, are fraternal twins. Especially if you add a bit of thriller to it. So he became a novelist instead. And rapidly became a hit - the man is quite comfortable in terms of personal resources, and would be rich, were it not for...the Estate.

He doesn't know what drew him to the rickety old mansion...and he's pretty sure it might have been drawn to him. He picked up the name Brian Glover independently as a morbid reference to "degloving", as in "removal of skin from organs", but it was always the Glover Estate - an infamous mansion known for several extremely complex and gory murders with a lot of dramatic familial undertones. The moment he saw it, he felt it was...watching him. Watching him with a note of strange surprise, like it didn't expect to see something like him. From then on, he saw instances of its architecture around him, kept on finding inspiration around its sordid history...like the house was rolling balls of inspiration at him, trying to see how he'd react. Slowly, he started to notice people in his life starting to act like the original family Glover as well, though not quite as ultimately murderous - like they were falling into a script, but it needed a stage. After he hit his third bestseller from inspiration - he felt obligated to repay it, and took out a loan to buy and refurbish the house (hence why he does not have Good Stuff, he's still paying it off).

Now, he feels in the belly of the beast...and the beast feels like it treasures him there. But it also feels like it wants him to do one last thing...
