1. What information can Elias simply know about your character if he concentrates on them? Secrets they don't want exposed, people they want to protect, memories they want to forget, crimes they haven't been caught for...things like that.

Ginger doesn't have any particularly deep or heavy secrets. She's lived a relatively simple and unremarkable life, as well as an honest one. She's very close with her older siblings: her elder sister and oldest of the three is Emmaline, Emma for short, who all but raised her when their parents divorced and moved out of the family home. The middle child, her older half-brother Halim, appeared suddenly in their life when he tried to connect with his illegitimate father. The sisters took him in, instead. He raises horses on a farm, and Emma is a florist.

After dropping out of high school, Ginger entered a series of bad relationships and couldn't hold down a job. She got a bit of a bad reputation for being easy, losing most of her former friends because of it (she didn't realize when she was sleeping with people who were "off limits" since she hadn't been in the schoolyard gossip loop). Around this time, when funds were at an all-time low and Emma had to give up a volleyball scholarship in order to make ends meet, her sister ultimately tried to overdose. It's not a secret, but it's a memory she tries to forget. When she stops to think too hard about the guilt and responsibility she feels for all of the hardships her family suffered, Ginger spirals.

Like most people who are pep-pep-peppy, Ginger is running from the darker emotions that she doesn't otherwise know how to deal with. She avoids commitment and avoids confronting herself. As long as she keeps working, as long as she keeps going, those haunts can't catch up with her.

Also, she lives in a haunted house! But she really hasn't noticed the ghosts, because she's just that bad at paying attention. Like, they're trying really hard to evict her. It's a whole thing.

2. Will Elias be allowed to implant memories into your character's mind? These memories will always be true and can be good or bad. But once he gives them to your character he can never remove them.

Absolutely! It would be easy. She's incredibly gullible to begin with.

3. Is he permitted at any point to create a contract of sorts to bind your character to him? Please note that this means he may not tell your character that this has taken place and that if he comes to harm so will your character. This will also be a separate contract from the ones used in Duplicity.

Totally! Fuck her up!
