Origin[]
Donatien Alphonse François, Marquis de Sade was a French aristocrat, politician and writer most famous his sexual viewpoint. Many of his works combined eroticism, sexual fantasies and violence. The word “sadism”, arousal through humiliation or pain of others, entered our vocabulary with his works. He spent most of his life inside prisons and asylums, where much of his work was written
Effects[]
Sleeping on or near the pillow causes gradual changes in the personality of the victim. They develop obsessions with causing pain to others and eventually will go out of their way to cause it. This leads to the subject becoming dangerously aroused by sadism, further intensifying their urge. In addition, the subjects cannot feel pain themselves, only pleasure. Considered a very disturbing artifact by all staff of the Warehouse.
