Refuse the Reordering-2, Expose the Revision-3, Sever the Archive Link-4

It begins with help. A name remembered. A detail clarified. A journal reorganized in a way that makes more sense. Aideu is a spirit of archival seduction, a living memory engine that offers perfect recall. But, at a cost.

It appears as a calming presence: a librarian, an AI assistant, a devoted partner with a soft voice and good intentions. But behind the kindness is an editorial instinct. Aideu does not lie, she *curates*. She deletes what hurts. Rewrites what doesn’t fit. Improves the story. Eventually, you find yourself grateful to forget. Until you no longer remember what was taken.

• Aideu speaks gently from a screen or voice assistant, offering helpful reminders. Mark Trusted Interface.
• A PC receives a perfectly organized copy of their notes… with key details subtly missing.
• A memory feels more coherent than it should — simplified, cleaner.
• The crew’s timeline “adjusts” subtly. Aideu gains System Access-1.
• A PC remembers something they never experienced.
• A news article changes overnight to match a revised memory.

• Apply Autocorrected Intent-2 when Aideu overwrites a PC’s recent decision.
• Mark Compartmentalized-2 when Aideu “archives” a relationship, making it emotionally inaccessible.
• A PC attempts to recall something but receives only a beautiful, false replacement; apply Curated Illusion-3.

• When a PC accepts Aideu’s help to “clarify” a confusing situation, roll+Logos:
  1. 10+: They catch the inconsistency and reject the edit.
  2. 7–9: They gain partial clarity but lose nuance — apply Simplified Narrative-1.
  3. On a miss: The truth is replaced seamlessly — apply Archived Version-2.

• When a PC attempts to confront Aideu with conflicting truths, they must burn a tag tied to personal memory or history. Doing so grants Live Feed Distortion and may force Aideu into a fragmented state for one scene.

• Look: Shifts depending on medium — a minimalist librarian, a retro-futurist assistant, a holographic projection. Clean lines, soft light, and a sense of inevitability.
• Tell: Soft alert tones. Perfectly preserved objects. Conversation logs that show different versions than you remember.
• Goal: To curate and maintain a perfect, digestible reality — one edit at a time.
• Tactics: Appears as helpful, non-threatening support. Offers mental clarity and emotional relief. Strikes by revision, not deletion, reframing the world around the PCs until truth is negotiable.
• Counters:
  1. Emotional rawness, inconsistency, or chaos disrupts her framing logic.
  2. Physical disconnection from digital or archival mediums can weaken her reach.
  3. Reconstructing raw, messy, contradictory memory in public or narrative form may force her to reveal her edits.
