Session Twenty

General Summary

Justin and Alice interrogated the Cinderman they had captured.

However the captured Cinderman got agitated when asked questions and flamed up. The flames were flowing through the chains and towards the rest of the Derelict Building (which was already at risk of falling down) While desperately trying to get him to calm down to prevent the building falling down, Justin said "Stop" and accidentally activated his ability. The Cinderman instantly stopped, the flames went out but he also stopped doing anything else and just vaguely stared off into space. Justin was traumatised by the fact he may have accidentally lobotomised someone.   After he was 'calmed' they asked him questions and were able to find out:
  • His name is Lucas White but he has no memories from before he became a Cinderman. He is 29 but has ''always' been with them.
  • He is compelled to follow the orders of the higher up Cindermen. Or at least he doesn't question it at all.
  • The petite woman that Leah had seen was called Lille/Lil. She had randomly shown up after Anders had been killed, murdered a couple of the Cindermen that were gunning for Leader and essentially said "I'm in charge now".
  • If you take a drug addict off drugs and they don’t feel like a person anymore, do you just kill them or give them a chance? Just because they’re not a person now, doesn’t mean they won’t be able to recover.
    — Granite
      Justin searches Lucas White after this and finds a normal Facebook profile for an office worker up until 6 months ago when the posts just stop. After the subsequent discussion deciding what to do with the Cinderman, during which Alice suggested 'getting another one and trying again', Granite ended up taking him away to try and rehabilitate him at The Sanctuary, which Justin lead them to. Justin told the Morlocks about how Cindermen are converted and tried to tell as many contacts as he could the same.
      Most of the crows persistently followed Willow everywhere she went, including watching the interrogation from the rafters.   Once she had left she went and climbed a tree and tried to wait them out. After 2 hours all but 2 fly off and a short while later a middle Eastern man dressed all in black approached her from the edge of the park and the two crows landed on his shoulders. Willow asked 'Are these your friends?' and he replies 'No'.   The man asked Willow if she would mind "undressing" (meaning to remove her seeming). Willow asked if he meant her harm and he stated that it depends who or what she is. After Willow agreed to it, he touched her hand and that caused him to suddenly disperse into lots of crows and fly away.   Willow immediately let Justin know and her Trouble changed to - 'I have so many questions.'
