You are cordially invited to the presentation of noted psychic Victor Neuberg at the Seventh Annual Psychic Circle this August, the 23rd. All members of the Golden Dawn and London Occultist Elite are invited to attend.Mr Neuberg is noted for his natural talent in the art of spiritualism. Reading will commence at 8:00pm sharp. Refreshments to follow.
Tomes and herbs to be sold. R.S.V.P.
Investigators with the right connections will receive the above invitation. At the meeting dozens of London's rich elite will be there. This is an ideal time for the investigators to establish a number of excellent contacts, and new clients.
Note: Victor Neuberg was a medium and conjuror, and a genuine member of the Golden Dawn.
1 Neuberg is a fabulous fake. He is very flamboyant and every spectacle he produces is designed to milk money from the unsuspecting public. His illusions look to be completely realistic but are accomplished using slight of hand and expensive magician's props.
2 The magic tomes offered for sale seem to contain genuine magic formulae but are all flash and no substance. The Psychic Circle does own some dangerous works, but these are kept under lock and key.
3 In his effort to impress, Neuberg accidentally summons something a little too powerful during his act. The demon, happy to be in the material world, pushes Neuberg's mind aside and takes control of his body. Nobody is aware of this fact. Not at first.
