The Diary of John Winchester

Name: UNK

Classification: possessed artifact

Description: simple abstract sculpture, mistakenly attributed to the Native Americans or Mexican sect of early construction

Lore Reference: minimal, resulting behavior was brought to our attention by a colleague. Through backtracking we were able to ascertain that each person affected had come into contact with this artifact since it was discovered.

Encountered At: Maryhill, Washington

Specific Attacks: power source was unknown in this artifact, but it possessed unprotected and unsuspecting people into acting out their deepest fantasies, with near disastrous results.

Kill By: cleansing ritual on artifact removes power to harm (despite debate, the Latin ritual did work.)

Personal Notes: We believed that we were going to have some difficulties in retrieving this artifact to perform the cleansing ritual. Our back-up plan was to get into the Maryhill Museum and at least destroy it, but that was a last resort since it could have freed the power source within and either possess something else, or cause chaos without being bound.

Max came up with the idea of pretending to be a student again, working on her art and history combined. Given her age and charm, the people at the museum believed it. Without telling her brother or me, Max arranged for a man to follow her through the museum. He approached her numerous times and Dean, not knowing her plan, chased him off each time. When we finally got to the artifact, which was set up on a pedestal, with velvet ropes surrounding it, the man moved in and did as Max had instructed him to. I guess Max knows her brother extremely well, since Dean reacted… very badly. A fight broke out and when Max tried to break it up, she was “knocked away” by the other man, right into the artifact. When I went to help her, she was already chanting the ritual. I admit, it took me a moment to catch up, but in the midst of all the action and security showing up, we managed to get it done. Max told the guard that she had been afraid of the statue breaking when she fell into it, but luckily she caught it. She gave it back to the museum personnel. Dean and the other man were evicted immediately from the museum.

Max talked to the museum director, apologizing for her brother and explaining that the man had touched her inappropriately. The woman told us that the man hangs around town, panhandling, but he’d never done anything like that before. Max was able to brush it off as a nervous mistake on her part then. We took our leave and found Dean outside about ready to pummel the panhandler.

He told us that the guy had made up some lie about Max asking him to do what he’d done. Max told her brother that it wasn’t a lie. She paid the man, whose name I believe, was Darren. He apologized both to her and me about how he caused the distraction, but figured that as Max had suggested it in the first place, it was all right by her. Max assured him that it was.

In my honest opinion, I’m not very happy about what she did. Granted, it did provide the distraction we needed. And the man was very polite, though whether he was naturally that way or if it had something to do with mine and Dean’s presence, I don’t know. But Max seems certainly capable of handling herself. I just wish…
