Quote:Glory has had done to her what Hexe did to herself, but where-- Bob
Hexe made extensive preparations in order to function properly,
Glory is quick-and-dirty shoved into a mortal body and locked
there. It was a bodged up disposal method, not a proper
incarnation.
While she may never have been sane by human standards, vis-a-vis
various Lovecraft entities, Glory's cyclic, growing "crazy" is
actually the result of a mismatch between her celestial
perceptions (N-dimensional) and the 4-D spacetime she's trapped
in. She needs a "filter" or "adapter" to cope, which she gets by
stealing a human's mental framework. She applies this to her own
mind with what amounts to a duct-tape kludge, giving her the
ability to function in 4D spacetime. However, the framework
*degrades* over several days, and she needs a new one in about a
week. (Between 1 Oct 2000 and 7 Nov 2000, 5 weeks, Glory "eats"
no less than 6 people. Assuming no unseen snacks, that means she
needs to top up every six days or so.)
