=== Weaknesses === They tend to be focused on the long term and environment and as such can miss what is immediately present around them.<ref name=":3">'''Behavior''': Trussed are victims of time, their minds eroded much as their bodies are. They may be delirious, single-minded, or left with whatever few key words or ideas they’ve managed to hold onto over the years. This almost always includes some focus on the events that led to their (self-)incarceration. They while away the days and years with routine or by talking to themselves, and rouse only if the space is intruded on. Their reactions vary from violent retaliation and defense of the area to the elderly individual that rouses once they realize they have visitors. In rare cases, they may try to capture visitors to take their place.<br><br>Trussed very rarely venture from their space and when they do they don’t venture far before finding new places to settle. They are prone to repeating themselves and may not keep good track of a conversation. They clarify more when and if conversation turns to specific subjects. - [[PactDice]]: [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1wvukMJfW_Ci6_rsqrigpeDBhBsBqFajWmTEyL-b3XCU/edit Bestiary: Trussed]</ref> They are already [[Binding|Bound]] and to free them from it means there is more information about the threat they are supposed to contain.<ref name=":6">'''Binding''': Trussed are strong in part because they are already bound, by circumstance and by environment. Suppressing them with practice generally requires that one have more information than the Trussed does; about the past, current circumstance (such as the fact that the threat has already escaped by some back door or is no longer in confinement), or the nature of the threat. Counters to the Trussed for the purposes of negative bindings tend to be replies to the existing environment. Bright fire in an intentionally sunken vault that hasn’t seen light in some time, wood in a dead place, etc. These measures typically suppress only, and don’t hold the Trussed back for too long. - [[PactDice]]: [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1wvukMJfW_Ci6_rsqrigpeDBhBsBqFajWmTEyL-b3XCU/edit Bestiary: Trussed]</ref> As Trussed are not meant to be easily moved in the first place summoning is difficult.<ref name=":7">'''Summoning:''' The threat the Trussed is tied to must be dealt with before the Trussed can move, and because of their plodding, environment-related nature, and how tied they are to the past, the Trussed is not easily transported from distant places to a current one. Instead, measures are taken to make them comfortable in a new place and they transition to existing there instead, often as new guardians.<br><br>For a Trussed to be taken as familiar, the person arranging the ritual should have a longstanding relationship or some meaningful tie to history. This is often familial relationship or a responsibility handed down, but can also include cases where someone wears a full regalia of treasure relating to the Tress and the confinement.<br><br>Trussed who become familiars typically become very aged, large dogs (loyalty, devotion) with war wounds or calcified deformity, or reptiles (serpents, tortoises) with the same. Slow to move, they lend a lot of power and longevity, and natural warding ability, at a heavy cost to access. - [[PactDice]]: [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1wvukMJfW_Ci6_rsqrigpeDBhBsBqFajWmTEyL-b3XCU/edit Bestiary: Trussed]</ref>
