Ah crap. I totally forgot that I needed to finish this character. I have what I was kinda thinking about having for the book's powers and curse if you want. I was in the process of narrowing stuff down so I don't have too many descriptions of the powers yet, but if you need something like that I can explain to you what each one would entail. I have a bit of homework tonight so I'm not sure if I can be done with it by today, but definitely by tomorrow.

Curse: The Necronomicon is filled with the secrets of unimaginable horrors beyond the limits of human knowledge. Horrifying nightmares of Eldritch Horrors is an immediate effect of being in possession of the Necronomicon. The longer the book is in one's possession, the more connected they are to it, often becoming obsessed with it and feeling a sense of dread when it is not on their person. As one begins read the book, they will start to hear whispers from the Crawling Chaos, tempting them to continue using its knowledge to gain power. Soon after these whispers comes a sense of paranoia and the feeling of being watched when no one is around. Continuing to use the book's power will cause their nightmares to become more vivid as occasionally causing the user to do things at night that they only remember as a mere nightmare. The whispers will also become increasingly more frequent and the owner will begin to see shadows of things that aren't there. Visions of the Great Old Ones and Outer Gods will fill their dreams, tempting the user to worship them and perform rituals in their name. Allowing one's self to give in to this temptation will in most cases result in physical transformations (transforming into a creature such as a Deep One, a saytr-like being, or a ghoul), becoming less human if they choose to worship one of these ancient beings. After a certain amount of time, not giving into these temptations can cause delusions as the line between fantasy and reality begins to fade for the user. Reading the book in it's entirety causes a human to go insane, for the entirety of the knowledge it possesses is far too great for the mind of a human to comprehend.

- Forbidden Knowledge
