Thanks for your interest—and our apologies for taking so long to reply! As a result of his proximity to the storms, Ginko will be subject to the following loss:
Courage
While aware of the danger, Ginko's interest in the storms at first overpowers his fear. At a distance, he will observe the shifts of light with no effect. When he draws closer, he may feel weary, but no worse—and certainly not enough to dissuade his curiosity. This is hardly the worst circumstance he's been exposed to, and by the time he presses properly against the glass, Ginko will feel relatively sure of his own safety.
This confidence fades quickly: as Ginko locks eyes with a face beyond the barrier. Looking back, he will be unable to recall its shape or features, whether it was a being composed of the storms or just enveloped by them. He remembers that it was drawn and skeletal, hungry and absolutely empty. And he knows that it is coming.
Metal warps. Glass can shatter. All structures corrode with time, and when torn away from the view, Ginko is painfully, sharply aware of just how fragile the walls are. No one and nothing can protect them, and he will be overcome by a lasting sense of fear. At your discretion, this may express as anything from gibbering panic to paranoia, but neither logic nor reassurance will assuage his terror for the duration of the event.
The loss may begin anytime between the 10th and 19th—whenever Ginko travels close enough to the storms to perceive them. It will last until the end of the month, and at your option, may persist to a lesser degree after. If you have any questions or adjustments you would like to ask about, feel free!
