| |
− | Napier's Syndrome is a form of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder that produces spectacular, to say nothing of dangerous, results.
| |
− |
| |
− | A person with Napier's develops an obsessive trigger-- this can be almost anything. (Classic examples include The Golden Age of Piracy, Medieval Japan, Masks, Cats, Riddles, Birds, and Duality, but almost anything is possible.)
| |
− |
| |
− | Sufferers develop a fascination with their trigger, often coupled with an identification of themselves with their trigger. They will often do anything to acquire objects associated with their trigger, and many sufferers assume costumed identities, commit crimes of theft or even murder, etc.
| |
− |
| |
− | While relatively few sufferers of Napier's have active metagenes, one should never underestimate a sufferer of this syndrome-- a side effect of the syndrome causes the sufferer to develop high-- even superhuman-- levels of skills associated with their trigger.
| |
− |
| |
− | Treatment is possible for sufferers of this condition, but to date, it is only possible to manage the obsession-- not cure it.
