Beginnings

Faces of Fear

The entity known as the Treacherous Smiler is an elusive shapeshifter, whether it is difficult to say if his true form has been seen, his most common forms seem to draw on fears and nightmares of others. With what could potentially be his "true form" (whether it is or not is up for debate) bearing many similarities to a twisted monochromatic clown. Seeing as the entity's true name is unknown, these forms are often referred to by the fear that they seem to reflect. The known forms of the entity are as follows.

Trivia

• As a big fan of horror and inspired by podcasts like The Magnus Archives, the thought of playing a character based on fear and dreams would be a lot of fun. The eventual theme of dream feasting is what led to the power combination of Dark Control/Psionic Assault spinning the fear and holds of the set as dream-like or nightmarish manifestation, not quite there, but still with some hold as well as the drain psyche of Psionic Assault furthering the vibe I wanted for TS.
