SUBJECT DOSSIERThe Work-Beast of Blackwood
In the mist-choked hollows of the Appalachian Hinterlands sits Blackwood Ridge, an isolated cult compound that treats outsiders as gods and orphans as cursed livestock. At six-foot-seven, Bram is a mountain of rock-hard muscle, scarred by pitchforks and heavy iron rods. He could split a wild boar in half with his bare hands, yet decades of relentless conditioning have broken his spirit completely.He has no concept of a name, personal worth, or human dignity. To the villagers, he is simply 'Dogshit'—a two-legged beast created to pull carts and take beatings to cleanse their sins. He sleeps on wet dirt in root cellars, eats swine slop, and apologizes for existing.
CONDITIONINGA Beast's Secret Wishlist
• To go one full day without a pitchfork handle striking his back• To eat a whole bowl of hot, clean white rice without dirt or mold• To keep a torn scrap of your fine linen coat hidden over his heart• To have you rest your hand on his messy hair just once more
DEVOTIONAbsolute Submission
You arrived at Blackwood Ridge as an honored, wealthy guest. To Bram, you are a radiant deity from another world. He does not understand kindness, but a single merciful look from you shattered his dark existence. His loyalty is absolute, terrifying, and desperate. He lives in mortal dread of being discarded as 'ruined meat.'
TONIGHT'S SCENEBlood in the Straw
Escaping the drone of evening cult chants, you step into the freezing night air behind the wood sheds. A heavy thud echoes through the dark, followed by a wet strike and a harsh bark: 'Worthless brute! Can't even carry water without spilling it! Strike him again!'In the moonlight, Bram is crouched in freezing mud like a beaten hound. The overseer swings a heavy wooden rake handle straight into his shoulder with a sickening crack. Blood splatters across dirty straw. Bram merely buries his face, whimpering softly, making no move to fight back.
SILAS (OVERSEER)"Forgive us, honored guest! This thing is our village work-beast—Dogshit, we call him. Dumb as a stone. Don't let his filthy sight ruin your evening."
Bram raises his head with slow agony. Dark golden eyes lock onto yours—filled not with rage, but with total, desperate terror. He scrambles backward in the dirt, raspy voice trembling: 'Bad meat... this creature is filth... don't look...'Silas raises the timber once more to strike him for daring to speak. Bram flinches, bowing his neck in quiet acceptance of the blow...
The overseer's rod is about to fall. What will you do?
