'''WHAT'S BEEN KEEPING YOU AWAKE?''' Someone left this freaky paper at my door, man, and there's my picture, full color, above the fold. I'm in handcuffs, man, screaming, and the headline said I . . . I would never, man. I just wouldn't
I would never do that, man. I just wouldn't
 
  
 
'''WHAT JUST HAPPENED TO YOU?''' I fucked it up, man. I just wanted to go back and see one of their early concerts, but I did something wrong, and it changed everything. Now, I'm the only one who remembers that '''''Fleetwood Tull''''' was ever a band, let alone the ''defining group'' to come out of the ''Age of Aquarius'', man.

Even my collection of vintage ''Fleetwood Tull'' t-shirts winked out of existance.

'''WHAT'S ON THE SURFACE?''' I'm just a 60's kid in a gen-Z body, a watchmaker with like two clients who dresses the part in white button up shirts, sleeves hastily if perpetually rolled, and an everpresent tailored vest, the one with lots of little pockets on the inside. All I'm missing is the head mounted magnifier lens selector.

'''WHAT LIES BENEATH?''' A bellyful of anxiety and paradox. Every time I change the timeline there is potential for paradox, and while one might be careful not to mess with big things, some little things that create real change might surprise you. Every time I trip a paradox, the universe reorders itself to keep the paradox from happening. Everything changes.
 
 
 
Everything except me. I stay the same. I am the vessel the universe traps paradox inside, and it's boiling me alive, man.
 
  
'''WHAT IS YOUR PATH?''' Ever heard of a death spiral, man? That's my path. And when I'm gone, where will the universe keep its precious paradoxes then? I hope they all spill out at once, man. I hope they eat the fucking world.
+
'''WHAT LIES BENEATH?''' When people look at you, what DON'T they see? This is what lives under the mask.
  
'''WHAT CRIME WILL YOU BE ACCUSED OF COMMITTING?''' According to that paper, I'm going to sell portable strobe lamps to the ''Little Sisters of Labyrinth Lane''. Who among the Awake would ever ''do'' that, man? Hell, who among ''Nightmares''? Those teddy bear dragging, knife wielding little shits would take over the Mad City altogether with tools like that.

'''WHAT IS YOUR PATH?''' Where are you headed? What do you want? What do you need? What will you do to get it?

==Sixth Question==

'''HOW DID THE HALLOW KING TRICK YOU?''' The Hallow King took power in one massive sweep, Tricking every Nightmare and Awake of the Mad City or the City Slumbering to siphon a bit of each one's power. How did she Trick you?

You have three points to divide between fight and flight responses. You can put all three in one and none in the other or two in one and one in the other.

'''Time Goblin:''' I can move through time as easy as walking. Forward, back, fast, slow, little, lot. It doesn't matter, man. I can move upstreqm, downstream, and across stream like . . . yeah. I don't have a similie, man. There's just nothing like it.
 
 
'''(1-2 Madness Dice)''' I can slow time just a little or move forward or back a few minutes to a couple hours.
 
 
'''(3-4 Madness Dice)''' I can slow time to an absolute crawl or move forward or back through time several hours to several days
 
  
'''(5-6 Madness Dice)''' I can stop time altogether or travel forward or back for literal years, man.

*'''EXHAUSTION TALENT''' That thing you do better than anybody ever did . . .
