Better Living Through Chemistry
From Gothpoodle
Lesser Jaggling, Artificial Spirit, Drug Choir
This spirit lives at the Writer's Loft.
Description
Chemistry generally appears as a hallucination of some sort or, occasionally, as a face in a cloud of pot smoke. It generally communicates through dreams and visions while the subject is under the influence.
Storytelling Hints
This spirit only cares about its locus and the regular influx of new tenants it needs to survive and grow. It has a vague connection with the Court of the Vine, but generally can’t bring itself to care about events in a broader context.

Background
Better Living Through Chemistry was born of rampant drug use during the 60s and all that came with it, from ecstasy and inspiration to madness and lethargy. It is a spirit of the benefits and the downfall of drugs, particularly LSD, Heroin, and Marijuana. It is very interested in the material world and spends a lot of time on its locus, influencing the people there and feeding off of their Essence. It is unmotivated, by nature, and so rarely ventures forth except when its room is unoccupied.
