Truth Brightman, the Hocus
Look: Male, fetish (vinyl-coated cloth) vestments, severe face, mesmerizing eyes, lanky body. Somewhat resembles Z-Man from Beyond the Valley of the Dolls.
Outlook: You've got to look beyond this mundane world. Our brains are made to be altered.
Truth lives in an old greenhouse in the Pastures of Walescoot, among the Halls of Wonder. Much of the original structure has collapsed, and the rest has been covered over time with a mixture of tarps and various scraps of plastic sheeting to provide protection from the elements. The remaining part of the greenhouse is more than large enough to accommodate the Happening.
