Looking upon one's likeness is always a little uncanny. As hearing your own voice might be. But there is some awful radiance to those eyes. As if some creature had taken your shape upon the canvas.

The Wretched Limner promised he would paint a most singular portrait of you, using the unique set of paints he inherited from his father, and if anything, he over delivers. When he's finished, your likeness is so lifelike that it refuses to accept imprisonment inside a single frame! You'll get the blame for any chaos the horrid thing causes to London's art scene, so you'd better catch it before your reputation becomes as wretched as the Limner himself.
