The most reasonable conclusion we have been able to draw from the reports available is simply that Chris Titan never existed.

Final Report Analysis, 2009|09|08|15:05

Camilla: You, sir, should unmask.

Stranger: Indeed?

Cassilda: Indeed, it’s time. We have all laid aside disguise but you.

Stranger: I wear no mask.

Restoring from tape. This is Session #12:

Chris Titan: Black Lake of Hali, the Towers behind the Moon. Brother of Cthulhu, the Yellow Tattered King is the Sun at total solar eclipse. I found this dangerous book: the king was in tatters, and blocked out by the moon… strange intelligence from the stars was able to bathe the earth. I have the mask… and can bring the bastard into physical manifestation.

(Tape plays back a high-frequency static sound for ten minutes. Messages identified in distortion include: “for the life of me, can’t recall where” – “Frater UT” – “ruined his reputation” – “sounds like a Moonman name”)

Chris Titan: That is only given with certain cuts into the flesh that are used as a key to decipher it.

(Unable to trace voice, accent; voice modulates in lower frequencies): Everything is known.

Chris Titan: With cuts in the flesh. You have to raise the answer up in blisters on your belly.

(Unable to trace voice, accent; different frequencies than previous unknown): The mask itself can be modified when I get time.

(Tape ends.)

Commentary of “Hudson“:

“Leather work gloves make it easy work. You have to hide out when we give you the Mask… cause the other criminals will kill your purple-faced talking ass.“
