# Character State: ch-06
|
||||
|
||||
## Lena Duval
|
||||
Location: Safehouse, Lower Ninth Ward, New Orleans.
|
||||
Physical: Severe sensory static; hand-tremors; deafened to the supernatural pulse. Nausea exacerbated by the rhythmic vibration of her mother's silver locket against her chest.
|
||||
Emotional: Claustrophobic and "cornered." Struggling with the vulnerability of being "blind" to the spirits.
|
||||

||||
Open loops:

||||
- Navigating the city while magically severed (Ch-05) -- UNRESOLVED.

||||

|
||||
Known secrets:
|
||||
- CARRIED (Ch-05): Developers target the "Heart of the Bend" for Project Phlegethon.
|
||||
- CARRIED (Ch-05): Mother’s locket is vibrating in sync with industrial machinery, not nature.
|
||||
Arc: 50% -- Realizes her "Severing" is a frequency shift; she is tuning into the industrial/artificial rather than the organic.
|
||||
Permanent: YES
|
||||
|
||||
## Jax Harlan
|
||||
Location: Safehouse, Lower Ninth Ward, New Orleans.
|
||||
Physical: Tense; low-grade exhaustion; shoulder bruising from a previous skirmish.
|
||||
Emotional: Hyper-vigilant; grim. Feeling the weight of the safehouse compromise.
|
||||
Active obligations:
|
||||
- Delivering Lena to the "neutral" contact (Ch-05) -- ACTIVE.
|
||||
Open loops:
|
||||
- Identifying the source of the location leak -- ACTIVE.
|
||||
Known secrets:
|
||||

|
||||
Permanent: YES
|
||||
|
||||
# World State: ch-06
|
||||
|
||||
## NPC Memory
|
||||
- Aunt Maribelle (The Coven): HOSTILE -- Her voice bypassed the Urban Wall to haunt Lena; distance is no longer a deterrent.
|
||||
- The "Neutral" Contact (New Orleans): UNMET -- A rumored harbor, but the safehouse’s compromised status makes every contact suspect.
|
||||
|
||||
## Faction Attitudes
|
||||
- The Duval Coven: Aggressive/Possessive -- Piercing city static to reclaim Lena.
|
||||
- Terrebonne Development Corp: Predatory -- Exploiting the "Stagnation" to push Phlegethon forward.
|
||||
|
||||
## Active World Events
|
||||
- The Urban Wall Failure: The iron and concrete of New Orleans are no longer successfully masking Lena from the Coven's reach.
|
||||
- The Leak: The safehouse security is officially breached; they are "sitting ducks."
|
||||
- Frequency Shift: The background "noise" of the world is changing from natural/magical to industrial/mechanical.
|
||||
|
||||
