> Do I perform tarot readings on myself? *Ahaha*, I used to-- but there are only so many times you can pull *The Tower* before you start to take the hint...
*-- Cain*
Known locally as "The Psychic" (complete with capital 'T' and 'P' to match his showman persona), Cain is the sole owner of **The Hourglass**, a small shop located in Marrow that is chock full of mystic and magic wares-- and his personal psychic services. Unbeknownst to the general public, however, his act as a psychic is just that: *an act*. He has not a single iota of psychic power; everything he passes off as psychic abilities is either smoke and mirrors, observation, sleight of hand, misdirection, cold & hot reading, or just plain theatrics.

A few more notes about Cain with his façade: - Life of the party - Probably an ENTP-esque personality - Minus the obsession with debating - Rolls with "Yes and-" - Chameleon - Can reasonably alter his own voice/accent to appeal to someone - Appears well-off - Very skilled liar - Though ironically doesn't enjoy lying |
A few more notes about Cain's true self: - Guilted and lonely - Doesn't really believe he deserves happiness - INTJ-esque personality - Poor - Has the one nice outfit that he's learned to repair/tailor himself - Basically starves himself to save funds (hence being so thin) - Depressed |
Important note: For the most part (which is to say, when the client isn't someone he actively dislikes and feels is horrible), if Cain intuits potential problems the client may be facing during any of his psychic services, he will try his best to subtly suggest help through the psychic act, be it advice for the issues at hand, his opinion on a decision, encouragement, guidance, or even just what he thinks they want to hear if it'll help them to make it through another day, etc. Cain may be a liar, but he is one with good intentions. |

*-- The Mysterious Entity*
A shadowy figure that has appeared to both Cain and the Competitors. It seems to lead the other figures within the Bifrost Terminal-- or it has the most awareness. Either way, it stands out as the most powerful presence in all of The Bifrost Terminal.

Nothing happens without me knowing. > > ”You are all still in one piece because I decided you should be. So, explore the terminal, ask questions. You are all here for a job, aren’t you? Well then, allow me to assign you your work task: figure out how to free the souls trapped in this godsforsaken facility. And as incentive, the first among you to succeed in freeing all of the spirits here shall be allowed to leave The Bifrost Terminal. As for the rest of you… If you don't finish first? If you slack off or annoy me and your fellows instead of putting your nose to the grindstone? > > Well... I'll leave that to your imagination." ### Gallery ---  | ||

> For some people, secrets are their bread and butter. For an Informant, secrets are bread, butter, dessert, currency, everything in between, and thrice on Sunday.
*-- Quintos Baritan, Head of the Thieves Guild*
A former Jester turned Informant of Noble rank from the world of Umbrallah, Doruine is equal parts helpful and mischievous. Always up to trade words for words, Doruine is a man of many secrets and for the right price, all of them are for sale. Secretly though, he hides a prideful side for his home and his world, and one would do well to never underestimate his ability to hold grudges.

> The Bifrost Terminal will be a marvel. The pinnacle of modern innovation in a stunning package, the first in it's kind to meet the public eye. The Bifrost Terminal is ambitious. I'll give you that, but we at Paradigm Architectural are equal to the task."
*-- Ben Waller, Head Architect and Founder of Paradigm Architectural*
*In an Interview for Interstellar Discovery*
*(Upcoming Attractions Edition)*
Founder, Architect, and Forman of Paradigm Architectural, the company hired by TITAN to oversee the design and construction of the Bifrost Terminal, Ben Waller is not a man to be trifled with lightly. He is ambitious, meticulous, and does not mind getting his hands dirty to make his dreams a reality.
Now he haunts the very Terminal he built. He has kept tabs on his family, using the terminal's lingering connection to Paradigm's network to secretly help with work orders and oversee new designs so that they will be able to survive. The first portal open to the public, it's bold concept and design made the company popular despite the eventual tragedy. He would do anything it takes to find a way back to his family.
Anything.

*-- Simon*
Simon is clearly out of his depth. As an Asset and Contractor Relations Liaison, much of Simon's life revolved around his job with TITAN and sending mail in every digital, magical, and physical form between their corporate office and their contractors- like Cain. On his first (and last) field assignment, Simon was sent to investigate Cain's decision to drastically subcontract his work to unauthorized parties. Unfortunately, his inexperience and TITAN's willingness to overlook employee well-being has led him into an interesting position he is not yet aware of.

> If you were annoying to me I wouldn’t be here right now. Stop asking… it’s fine. *-- Kazuya to Cain* ### Backstory --- Don't worry about it. ### Personality --- Typically one to keep to himself, Kazuya interacts with others usually begrudgingly. He might have a low tolerance for socializing but he’s… cordial enough. Often his bluntness causes him to come off as rude without really meaning to, but primarily he’s just kind of awkward when made to interact for extended periods. Though far from being an open book he’ll still answer most questions when asked but tends to keep conversations short and to the point. The only person he seems content chatting with is Cain. His trust and loyalty is difficult to earn but those who have earned it he is fiercely protective of. There are very few people he will help without question. First and foremost being his younger brother, Masaru, followed closely by Masaru’s wife and children, though Cain seems to slowly be making his way onto that list. He’d never admit it, but the charming psychic is starting to grow on him. |

> What is a mortician if not a very, very late doctor?
*-- Cordelia*
The responsibilities of a funerary witch are such; Mortician, Undertaker, overseer of the graveyard, Funeral home director, exorcist, and, in Cordelia's case, mentor.
While she has employees for most of these, raising a teenager is one of her hardest tasks yet. Made only harder by the kid's propensity for wandering off.
Lord, where did she go now?

*-- AZIMUTH Prime, LOG \[47617465776179\]*
Rumours have it that Katabax was a living, breathing creature once, from a world very different to Thraelos. What species it may have been before, nobody can answer, nor do they dare ask. What stands before them in the present is all that matters: a complex arrangement of sliding metal parts and uncompromising mechanisms, all sharpened to needlepoint and polished to a perfect reflective finish.
Katabax locks himself often in his personal workspace within the laboratories of Azimuth Manufacturing Company, only being caught slithering through the halls in the peripheral vision of his underlings. Speculation breeds like wildfire as to what it could be up to, but very few have curried favour with the cruel machine.
