Repression

World of Darkness - Alsylum
Your character has blocked out the memory of the event that caused this derangement. She might not remember pulling the trigger and killing that man. She might remember walking into the old house, but have no recollection of the horrors she saw there. In any event, only through intense therapy or memory-altering supernatural powers will she regain those memories. The character is aware that something happened, and is potentially open to discovering what, but cannot call up the memories herself. In addition, if she fi nds herself in a similar situation, the player must roll Resolve + Composure or else the character blocks out the memory of that scene as well.
