Origin[edit | edit source]
Atticus Finch is one of the main characters of Harper Lee’s seminal work ‘’To Kill A Mockingbird”. Atticus is the father of Jem and Scout and tries to instill a code of rules and honor in his children. As a lawyer in the Deep South, he goes against social norms and defends Tom Robinson, an African-American man, against the accusations of rape because he believes him to be innocent and in need of a fair trial. Although the attempt fails, his children pick up on the behavior, defending their neighbor Boo Radley after he saves them from being injured. He is portrayed in the film by Gregory Peck.
Effects[edit | edit source]
Allows the user to implant any idea in the user’s head and they will be completely open to it. Can work on a large scale (like in a crowded area) to a slightly lesser degree, but if used right, can ensue mob mentality.
