conversations.value: Welcome to Hell, or at least, the most conveniently letter-associated section of the most secure facility in North America for holding criminals and monsters of the supernatural variety.
  
  Specifically, 'H' Block is where the monsters who are almost human go when they commit crimes against the ruling authorities. 
  
  You, yes I'm talking to you, scumbag. You are a resident of this long-term home to long-lived monsters.
  
  Your trial is over, you avoided the Hanging Tree, but that may not be as much of a win as it sounds. Because, no one escapes, and no ones leaves. 
  
  On the outside, you were a mage, or almost one. However, in here, your power is sucked away before you can use it and powerful mind-magic spells do a very good job of short-circuiting any violent ideas before they can make it to your muscles. But, remember, no spell is perfect. Inmates don't usually die of old age.
  
  Like I said, welcome to 'H' Block.

  Narrator's Notes:
  
  On Character Creation: 
  
  Feel free to use your imagination. Backgrounds and history I leave up to you, the player, but I will also answer any questions you might have about the world, and/or I may, of course, ask for modification if something doesn't line up with the world. Otherwise, go for it.
  
  Natures are really not variable, please choose one of the provided Nature cards. 
  
  Strengths and Weaknesses are provided, but you may create your own as needed. 
  
  Subplots and Goals are likewise provided, but you may propose new ones as needed.
  
  Rules of the World:
  
  Short version, a modern magical world where just about everything can or does exist in some, (generally dark) version.  For the purposes of this game, mages (or wizards or witches or whatever you like to call your standard human-esk magic users) are what the interactive characters will be. All other species are housed in other sections of the prison.
  
  Magic, for mages, is considered to be of different types and depending on the mage, one's magic can be mixed (multiple flavors) or pure (just one flavor). And short nicknames for each flavor of power are very common.
  
  For example, a red has one vein of very destructive, fire-inclined magic. A blue is more or less the opposite. A pinkie is a mage with some red power, but others mixed in too. 
  
  Pure are usually the most powerful in their vein, but are limited by the one flavor. Mixers can use more than one flavor, but are never as strong as a pure. 
  
  Vergers, the other Nature you can choose, are almost human and usually have a very specific talent that is only accessible under very specific circumstances. For a verger to be locked up with the real mages, he/she must have done something extremely serious.
  
  Also, mages have auras that can indicate the mix of their powers and even their emotional state. All mages can sense auras to some degree. Vergers will have greyish auras, almost indistinguishable from a normal human, and thus, can hide the exact nature of their talent from other players to a degree. 
  
  Auras also absorb energy and this prison soaked to the stone with dark vibes. Even if a person were to come in relatively benign or even innocent, they would be influenced by the dark aura of 'H' Block and eventually, become their worst self.
  
  Again, feel free to ask questions if you need clarifications. I have a pretty deeply built world here, and this is just a particular story within it. I'm working on a private wiki to keep up with some things, but it is slow going. I'll send all players a link and password if I get it to the point where it might be useful.
  
  Final comments:
  
  Remember, this is a prison. Here's your chance to play the bad guy.
  
  This is a story, first of all, and I will let it go where it must. However, it is also a bit of an experiment for me on the whole situation of a prison for mages because I am considering adding a similar situation in a book I'm writing. So, I may find inspiration in this game. You've been warned.
  
  The last word, of course, is to have fun telling a good story. 
  
  Welcome to 'H' Block. 
  
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You've been here a long time. You know how it all works in here.
conversations.prefix: Long Time, No Sun:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: It's better than calling it the open space in the middle of the cave.
  Gatherings, game night, and all public humiliations happen here.
conversations.prefix: The Yard:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: The Yard is at the bottom, the door of no return is at the top.
  Calling them stairs is misleading. Each step is over two feet tall.
conversations.prefix: The Stairs:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: At the top of the stairs, this stone plateau is prime real estate.
conversations.prefix: The Landing:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: On the landing next to the Door, this simple stone shelf is where food arrives.
conversations.prefix: The Chow Spout:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: One of the four cells that open up onto the Landing.
  Despite being prime real estate, this cell is empty.
conversations.prefix: Cell One:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Born with an single, untainted power over a single element of magic.
conversations.prefix: Pureblood Mage:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: The mixed blood crowd mostly kowtows to the Flame crime family. But you think that there is room for two factions of mixed magic and one of them is yours.
conversations.prefix: Mixed-Blood In-Charge:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You are already on top of your respective heap. Keeping your position is all that matters now.
conversations.prefix: Keep What Is Yours:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You want power, but not the deadly attention that goes with being in-charge. You are the right-hand-inmate to a king---or you will be.
conversations.prefix: The Sweet Spot:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: It's tiny, but it's sharp enough to get the blood flowing.
conversations.prefix: Shiv:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You don't want to get involved in prison politics, you just want to be left alone.
  Best of luck with that.
conversations.prefix: Survive?:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Or queen. You are one of the elite and you'd like to me more than that. 
  You plan to take you place at the head of the pure blood faction.
conversations.prefix: Pureblood King:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Your a Mage, but instead of one, concentrated element of magic, you've got some combination of talents.
conversations.prefix: Mixer:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Your only human, most of the time. You have spark of magical talent, but it may not be available to you except under special circumstances or it may just give you an unconscious talent that makes you just a little bit better than your average human.
conversations.prefix: Verger:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You don't deserve too be here--or at least you didn't do the thing they caught you for.
conversations.prefix: Framed:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You are accustomed to using your powers for almost everything. Now, powerless, you are at a disdantage.
conversations.prefix: Big Mage Outside:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You know you're never getting topside again, and with that knowledge comes a certain sort of freedom.
conversations.prefix: Lifer:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You don't fit in with the pure or the mixed mages. But you intend to make the best of your situation and rise to the top of the misfit food chain.
conversations.prefix: Master of Misfits:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Next door to Cell One and historically uninhabited, it has recently been assigned to a new tenant, Gregory Dragonne.
conversations.prefix: Cell Two:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: cell One's counterpart on the opposite side of the door. 
  Cell Three is occupied by the Iceman.
conversations.prefix: Cell Three:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Next to Cell Three, it is currently occupied by the Iceman's right-hand mage.
conversations.prefix: Cell Four:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Down on the floor level, these cells are where the main population lives and dies. 
conversations.prefix: Lower cells:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Given enough time, you can make things happen just how you want. Plans are your strength.
conversations.prefix: Devious:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You do what it takes. Morality isn't part of the equation when your own interest's are at stake.
conversations.prefix: Ruthless:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You omehow managed to make yourself useful to the Iceman and that makes you a few steps above the rest. It also makes you the target of hatred and the ambitious. 
conversations.prefix: Friends in High Places:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You intend to move up the food chain, one bite at a time. 
conversations.prefix: Ambitious:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Number two. You made it to the top and you plan on staying there. 
  
conversations.prefix: Right-Hand to the Iceman:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You hate something or a lot of things and crying, whining, and moping are your favorite pastimes. 
conversations.prefix: Nothing But Blue :
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You don't really belong here and that may help you sleep at night, but it doesn't carry much weight in here. Your morals and self-righteousness can't help you now.
conversations.prefix: Not a Monster:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: ...
conversations.prefix: Divided Loyalties:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: ...
conversations.prefix: Smart-Ass:

conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You may not be good, but whatever the reasons, you put more than a few of your neighbors behind bars. 
conversations.prefix: He Who Hunted Monsters:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You want to rule this hellhole someday. 
conversations.prefix: King of Hell:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Unlike most of the inmates, you have a finite sentence and a chance to get out. All you have to do is stay alive and avoid doing anything to add time to your time. 
conversations.prefix: Ride the Rap:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Escape is all you want. It doesn't matter to you that it hasn't been done, ever, you intend to be the first. 
conversations.prefix: Get Out of Dodge:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: A favor here a favor there, you play all the players just enough to stay useful to everybody.

conversations.prefix: Pull the Plug:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You have a score to settle and you intend to serve all the courses.
conversations.prefix: Best Served Immediately:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You've got something, a position, a piece of real estate, something that you'd like to keep. You don't want to change that, but that doesn't mean others aren't after what you've got. 
conversations.prefix: If it Ain't Broke:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Even monsters have things they'd rather not have known. You intend to find the closets and use the leverage as needed.
conversations.prefix: Secrets and Skeletons:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Maybe you have an injury that needs magical healing, maybe you already had it done, or maybe you're just an addict. What you need is UJ, and when you need it is right now.
conversations.prefix: Get Fixed:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: He's a pure blue mage of impressive power on the outside. He's led a long, shadowy life on the outside. He's been the resident king of 'H' Block since he arrived ten years ago. Don't touch his hat.
conversations.prefix: The Iceman:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: The Iceman's top man and a powerful pinkie thug in another life. 
  He's happier than he looks and twice as mean.
conversations.prefix: Trejo:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Verger. Serial Killer. Typical inmate.
  Apparently murder is what it took for him to get at his thimble of power. No downsides, right?
conversations.prefix: Elvis Brooke:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: A pure rock mage and the perfect example of why everybody hates those uppity Solids.
conversations.prefix: Jimmy Brackett:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You may or may not remember the day you walked through the double-sealed door, but you figure it's the least you can do to make it memorable.
conversations.prefix: Welcome the New Inmate:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: You know where your loyalties--or at least you interests--lie. Or, if you don't you might want to figure it out.
conversations.prefix: Choose a Faction:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: The cells have opened and a new day has begun on 'H' Block.
  Beans will start appearing at the chow spout soon and you should probably see about getting some.
