The Compendium

[The Dean]

*~Before you is the Demonic Compendium. Within it lies all the spirits from beyond this world’s normal understanding, laying deep within the subconscious recognition of the human mind. Listed currently are the Personae that have been awakened (or perhaps still lay dormant), detailed with appearance and understanding of their working, as well as the soul who is so blessed as to have their minds opened to the opposite side of the coin of their life. No two people can have the same Persona… Remember this…~*
