Your character’s soul is a cracked gateway into a madden- ing unreality that easily spills forth. Whenever the Deviant uses a Variation or suffers an Instability, all baseline humans in the scene suffer from the effects of the Hallucination Scar (See Deviant: The Renegades) at a dot rating equal to that of the Deviant’s highest Variation. The hallucinations that this Condition creates are vivid, bizarre, and alien, as chimeric figures caper and strange faces leer from inanimate objects. The effect passes at the end of the scene, but baseline hu- mans who gain the Contagion-Touched Condition from the encounter will experience the effects of Hallucination (••) in any scene where they fail a roll, increasing by • with each stage if they gain the Infected Condition. With enough stage 3 Infected in an area, the unreality imprints itself fully and even uninfected find the hallucinations to be fully real and material.
Additionally, your character suffers the Madness Condition (Chronicles of Darkness, p. 289), and must spend one point of Willpower to be able to resist a com- mand or instruction from El Centinela.
Possible Sources: Direct infection from El Centinela; excessive exposure to the ACZ.
Resolution: Death; one chapter’s total isolation in a desert; tearing one’s own eyes out (and not regenerating the damage).
Beat: Your character fails to discern between reality and hallucination.
