A short paper on Speculum Humanae - Human mirror - The reason behind the psychological occurences in the Choice and Consequence series

This paper is written to give a summary of the human condition that has been going on for years and yet, we still know little about it. We've dubbed the condition Speculum Humanae or the Human Mirror as it appears to show people who have it themselves or the worst parts of themselves in most if not all scenarios. Thanks to the people of Hillside city, we've had more people to interview and study so we can nail down the cause and effect of the Human Mirror.

Basics
  • A human being will obtain the condition once they hit a point in their life where the stress of life on them is at their highest.
  • Some people won't get this condition in their life if they don't hit this point in their life or don't attempt to test themselves.
  • There are other people who will have this condition, but write it off as nightmares or bad day dreaming.
  • This condition appears to be testing who has it so the person can define themselves for the rest of their life with various "puzzles" and situations that test the person's particular skill set.
  • The condition itself has apparently existed since the beginning of human existence as ancient stories perfectly parallel the stories these patients tell and has only been started to be studied in the early 1900s.
  • Monsters based on the person's personality manifest in the person's mind. Some attack, some help, and some don't do anything.

  • Another entity that appears person in the person's mind, is a being known as the other him/her, which is a person like the original person except they're more honest about themselves according to the patients. They always have a black scar on their front that looks like the symbols for male and female. On the back, they have the same symbol which might be the symbol for humanity.
  • Transsexuals will always see their original sex on the other him/her entity no matter what their sex they is currently.
  • Paranormal and spiritual occurances might happen (50/50 chance).


Physical effects
  • The brain's condition doesn't appear to change even when the person is actively experiencing the condition save for the stress of the situations which the condition presents.
  • Scars and physical injuries will appear on the patient's body if are attacked by their personality monsters even if the patient is wearing clothes or protective clothing.
  • A person might be controlled by the condition to do certain things or go certain places, but not extreme things such as violence (sexual or brutal) or suicide unless the person allows it.

Unknown effects
  • A person might mysteriously appear in a different location (even if the person is in solitary) when they're not watched (rare).
  • Spirtual occurances will make the person see God as they say along with two other individuals who also claim to be God.
  • A person might encounter the devil or Satan and will spiritually be in Hell (rare).
  • A "fake out death" might occur when the condition "kills" the person, but actually doesn't. It appears to do this to prove a point or to give the person another chance.
  • The condition always puts the person who has it on a path that it plans so that they do not encounter any challenges that the person cannot overcome.

Final results
  • There are various ending results when the person completes the "game" the condition presents; suicide, insanity, vigilantism, becoming normal/self healed, being better than they used to be, a need to help others or change the world.
  • After that, the condition will completely disappear from them.
Conclusion
We still have much to learn about the Human Mirror though what we've learned appears to be all we can know as if we're blocked by outside forces to learn more about it. As we are now, we can help the people with this condition as best we can, but it appears that what happens to them is up to them.
