Profane Persecutions

Someone suffering from Profane Persecutions operates under the delusion that invisible and unseen enemies, often acting in concert with his supposed friends, family and loved ones, are involved in a master conspiracy to make his life miserable and eventually murder him.

These enemies possess amazing powers and fiendish minds, being able to somehow spy on the person day and night (often through ingenious means), construct secret tunnels and passageways to sneak about his lodgings, slip drugs or poisons into his food and drink, break into his rooms and tamper with his possessions, steal precious objects right under his nose, drain or suck blood, wound and mutilate him, make him the target of magic spells, compel him to do beastly things in his sleep, and take over his mind.

Furthermore, these enemies are usually one specific group of people. For example, Elves, Dwarfs, Halflings, Mutants, Beastmen, Skaven, Lizardmen, Goblins, Wizards, followers of Chaos, followers of another God not worshipped by the victim, Templars, Witch Hunters, Druids and Physicians.

When someone suffering from Profane Persecutions encounters someone from the group he believes responsible for tormenting him, he might react irrationally to that person’s presence. Some examples of how the victim reacts: screaming in terror, fleeing, hiding, verbally or physically attacking the person, sobbing uncontrollably, or cowering in fear.

Raving about conspiracies and invisible enemies is a sure sign of lunacy. A person suffering from Profane Persecutions should be wary of bringing real persecution down on his head from the Witch Hunters.
