Consciousness
Spirit · Werewolf
Consciousness is a strange Bane. Consciousness is an embodiment of loud, permeating communication. Each Consciousness Bane centers on a different topic, and attempts to blast that message to the world. This might be a noble cause, if not for the Bane’s ability to instill witnesses with fear and loathing. Most witnesses burst into a violent frenzy upon experiencing Consciousness’s message. Even if they can’t comprehend the message due to language barriers, ignorance, or other impediments, Consciousness inspires rage and vitriol.
Consciousness Banes generally don’t live long; they have a terrible time keeping to themselves. They’re often found marching out in the open, where they fall victim to their own rage-induced listeners. If their listeners have nobody else to attack, they’ll lash out at the Consciousness.

Image: Consciousness exists as a nigh-incoherent jumble of information. It’s loud, it’s convoluted, and it’s extensive. The information is never presented with full clarity. If the Consciousness takes the shape of a computer screen, jumbled, garbled text will interrupt the intended message. If it takes the shape of a radio broadcast, it’ll wash with static and interrupting signals. Newspapers are wet and mashed together. Regardless of the form, Consciousness requires scrutiny and attention to decipher more than just a jumbled mess.
