Message: <blockquote data-quote="Endur" data-source="post: 3224503" data-attributes="member: 3346">Jack grits his teeth and forces his way through the rest of the journal.  The evil within Danovich's words causes Jack to neglect everything going around him as he reads the book.Danovich describes his decision to end his nighly prayer sessions to protect the village from the great curse and instead focus on restoring his son to life.  Danovich describes in great detail the awful process that conferred life (undeath) upon his former son.  A cursed life, but life nonetheless.  The zombie plague is described in Danovich's journal as an unfortunate side effect (or perhaps an unknown part of the spell, intended to happen but overlooked by the obsessed Danovich).  Danovich describes his feelings that life itself is unfair, that the master had life eternal, but his curse did not involve becoming an abomination such as the Blasphemy that Doru became.Danovich also described sneaking into Castle Ravenloft during the daytime to steal the Liber Blaspheme from the Count Strahd von Zarovich's library.  The castle was empty and lacked guards.  Danovich does not speculate on why the Count would have such a book in his library, other than to mention that the Count has an interest in such matters and that Danovich somehow knew that the book (or something like it) would be there.The evil writings caused Jack to acquire 2 points of taint (mild depravity) and the neglectful trait.  Jack's obsessions causes him to disregard cultural mores and hygiene and he takes a -2 penalty on charisma based checks.  (Heroes of Horror taint rules).</blockquote>
