[BCOLOR=transparent]Unity[/BCOLOR][BCOLOR=transparent] over Health, Health over Humanity[/BCOLOR][BCOLOR=transparent].[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]SYNOPSIS:[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]There are few privileges in life as great as an admission into the Lehane Sanitarium. Secluded in the mountains of western Montana, there is no shortage of natural beauty to be found here, away from the corrupting desires of the world below. It’s the perfect getaway, just the place you needed after it all snapped. You know, when the pressures of modernity kept piling on your back until reality seemed a bit off. Some arrive to the asylum on their own free will, some do not. Rest assured, all are satisfied in the end.[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]The institution has a long and fascinating history to complement its elegance. It was built in the mid 19th century by a wealthy philanthropist, one who saw the dire need for adequate mental hospitals after the Civil War. The design was largely borrowed from numerous European castles, combining security with grace and luxury. Afterwards, the facility narrowed down its selection of patients to a very unique group. A strange phenomena had captured the full attention of the sanitarium’s directors. [/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]That phenomena was the imaginary friend. Of course, it was never unusual to see a child with one, but an increasingly large number of adults who had one found themselves living inside the asylum’s walls. Over the years, countless advancements in psychology were made in those very same walls. Treatment after treatment, the problem never seemed to fully go away. Nevertheless, the Lehane Sanitarium is proud to announce that it has finally developed a cure for this particular delusion. [/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent][BCOLOR=transparent]Some might say that the asylum is more of a grand hotel than a hospital. It provides excellent nutrition, exercise, and recreation to the patients who accept the ultimate treatment. Despite the unorthodox nature of this cure, it is a resounding success over any lesser therapy. The scale of what has been achieved here renders the lobotomy a mere footnote in science. It is pure Transcendence.[/BCOLOR][/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent][question=red]What is Transcendence?[/question][/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Excellent question! Transcendence iscold-blooded torture the process of ridding the body of an impure mind. You see, imaginary friends are not mere hallucinations. They can see and experience phenomena which baffle most researchers at the asylum. Limited telekinesis, emotional telepathy, these are the traits which an imaginary friend may wield. The treatment developed here replaces the original mind of the patient with that of the imaginary friend. Although this creates a new person altogether (completely unrecognizable to friends and family), it also acts as an effective cure for insanity. [/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent][question=goldenrod]What am I supposed to do here?[/question][/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]An even better question! The patients and the staff are a bit divided in terms of goals. The former may wish to escape, or accept the Transcendence once and for all. The latter keeps a close eye on everyone, making sure nothing can interfere with the treatment in every stage. The imaginary friends themselves are the real wild card. They are parasites, plain and simple, emerging from another realm or dimension. They feast on strong emotions. Some are intent on remaining parasites for life, while others desire a physical body of their own, causing them to mislead their host into undergoing the asylum's vicious treatments.[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]
[/BCOLOR]
[fieldbox="Rules, blue, solid"]1. No godmodding.
2. No bullying of fellow Iwaku members.
3. Despite the presence of torture and gore, try to keep the site rules in mind and avoid excess where it is not needed. The same applies to vulgarity.
4. Character death is a possibility.
5. OP's word is law.
6. Never be afraid to ask questions or give suggestions![/fieldbox]
