Closed Species - Scrolls

Closed Species. 
I'm currently working on the guide.

The Scroll shown in the picture above is mine. The fear and name of this Scroll is Ouija.
I've made the tip of the tail look like a planchette from a real board.

Scrolls

    Scrolls are small, interesting creatures. Legend says that they were only a myth. They were only talked about in stories in the olden days to entertain people. Or even scare them. Amazingly, these creatures are real. If you're lucky you can buy a Summoner Scroll from ancient shops around the world. Some shops keep them a secret from the public and mostly the elderly know more about them than anyone. The elderly grew up on these stories, hearing them from their parents and passing them onto their children. They'd like people to believe they are just a myth. Sometimes they won't even sell the scrolls to people, denying that they even exist. If you can get your hands on a Summoner Scroll, be careful. You must take good care of it, keep it from being damaged at all costs.
    These scrolls are very special. Although to some, they're found to be demonic and evil. The scrolls were created long ago (1700s) to help people get over their biggest fears. Back in the day they were sold to anyone who was experiencing fear or anxiety. They were almost like a medicine. After people started going insane, or even dying, the scrolls were kept in secret. Forbidden from ever being sold again. So many scrolls were created that they piled up in the back of shops. Sadly, many had to be burned in order to make room for other merchandise. Finding a scroll now days is very rare since it was illegal to own any during that time and many were destroyed.
   
    To use your Summoner Scroll, if you can get one, you'll need to follow a few steps...  
   
     -Write your biggest fear on the scroll.
    -Let a single drop of your blood fall onto the scroll. This is considered your signature.
    -Roll it back up and tie it off with a ribbon. The ribbon can have any design, but must be made of silk.
    -Place it under your pillow while you sleep. Keep it there!

    This process takes a few nights. The Scroll feeds off your slowed heart beat while you're asleep. This way it can match it's heart beat to yours. Both hearts will always beat exactly the same. The reason for this is so if you're scared/uneasy, it can slow it's heart down to help you relax. It helps with your fears. On the final night, the Scroll will take it's full form. It will be a little larger than a normal house cat, it will also have a longer body. The Scroll will crawl out from underneath your pillow and fall asleep on your chest, allowing it to be closer to your heart. It will forever be your loyal companion. Others are able to see your Scroll as well, so be careful!

    The Scroll's design will represent your fear. No matter what design a Scroll has, it will always have a red dot on it's forehead. That is your blood that you signed the scroll with. It will also have the ribbon connected to it's body. The ribbon can be located anywhere such as the tail, legs, arms, neck, horns, ect. The ribbon must stay tied to it's body. Every Scroll will look different. None are the same in appearance. They can be male or female.

    BEWARE! If you have already started the process of summoning, there is no going back. If you decide you're too afraid and cut the ribbon off, try to clean your blood off, or try to trick it by using someone else's blood, you've basically just signed a contract saying you're wanting to die. Scrolls are a very serious and dangerous things. The Father of Scrolls will give you a personal visit himself if you do any of these things. Think of it as you just killed his child. You're going to meet one angry dad.
    BEWARE! If you've already summoned your Scroll, it's in the full form, and you cut off the ribbon, it will turn corrupt. Cutting the ribbon is basically like cutting off the bond it has with you. This is very dangerous. The blood drop on it's forehead will drip down it's face, becoming a streak instead. The Scroll will make you even more terrified than you were before. This can cause mental scarring or death. Cutting the ribbon doesn't take away it's power over your heart. You two are still connected. This can gravely endanger you if it decides to take advantage of that. It is rare that they'd take over the heart since it could kill them as well, but it has happened before. Once they're done with you, they won't stop. They will attack others.
