Hoo boy... The player character hasn't even met Pandemonium in person yet, and I'm already terrified of them. The implications of the player character's ability to travel between the mundane world and the Neverplace are terrifying. As is the idea of being Pandemonium's 'Favorite', as the Valraven referred to the player character.
