Known locally as "The Psychic" (complete with capital 'T' and 'P' to match his showman persona), Cain is the sole owner of The Hourglass, a small shop chock full of mystic and magic wares-- and his personal psychic services. Unbeknownst to the general public, however, his act as a psychic is just that: an act. He has not a single iota of psychic power; everything he passes off as psychic abilities is either smoke and mirrors, sleight of hand, misdirection, cold reading, or just plain theatrics.

Personality


LoremThe ipsumfaçade: dolorEver sitthe amet,showman, consecteturCain adipiscingis elit,exceedingly sedcharming and personable, able to gracefully maneuver his way through conversations with even the toughest of personalities. He has the ability to entertain, coerce, and convince most to whatever it is he may be trying to peddle (or glean) at the moment, all of which comes quite in handy as a salesman. Keenly observant while also empathetic, Cain is able to combine both traits to understand how others may think or feel, using that sense to manipulate situations toward the outcomes he desires; both traits also help him with his "psychic" services (which is to say, as a professional liar). Confident, charismatic, congenial; Cain is either well-liked or detested, there is rarely any middling indifference to how others feel about him.

 

Under the façade: Rather surprisingly, Cain is actually reserved and quiet, not at all a showman by nature. For reasons he has not yet revealed, before moving to Crossroads, he forced himself outside of his comfort zone and learned how to play the role of the entertainer. While the extroverted charm is manufactured, his keen senses of observation and empathy are true to his core, leaving him frequently laden by a deep guilt due to lying being part of his current livelihood. As such, even while Cain is technically lying for certain psychic services (such as séances, for example), his end goal is still to help his clients, and will therefore do eiusmodevery temporounce incididuntof utresearch laborehe et dolore magna aliqua.

Duis aute irure dolorcan in reprehenderitpreparation and suss out what is the best possible thing (in his opinion) for his client to hear. In a way, he's a bit of an unintentional life coach-- just with a lot of theatrics thrown in. Hidden under that extroverted façade, Cain is simply a lonely depressed man who feels trapped in voluptatehis velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur.
