Wtf Man .. why do you have so many options on your mind to change personality ( gaslighting, drug abuse, sex worker, brain washing) such type of corruption..!! Are you researching such things or what (+_+) NvmYes, normally and in general that's true.
However
now this does sadly happen. Put someone under extreme mental and psychological stress, make them fear for their lives or their loved ones, or let them experience some other kind of trauma (like accidents or disasters) and we have plenty of cases in which someone changed their personality completely. Recent examples include soldiers returning from the front, who are barely recognized by their partners. With these conditions met, changes are possible very fast.
Relatively fast changes - which are perhaps more likely to happen in the scope of PC - can be achieved by
So as we can see there is a wide array of possibilities available to change Hanas views, perception, self-image and values, which are of course part of her personality. While her initial disposition towards the club may power up her resilience, she is not invulnerable to those factors, should they be implemented by the club and/or our choices.
- gaslighting: presenting a false narrative, thereby leading a person to doubt their perceptions and become misled, disoriented or distressed. Can also set the stage for the aforementioned causes.
- Drug abuse: with Abels serum as the prime example, but not exclusively since there are other drugs also available at the club.
- Exposure to unusual or disagreeable behaviour, tends to bend a persons own perception towards the behaviour. Experiments have shown, that a lot of people have a hard time to dissent with a common shared opinion inside a closed group.

Several conditions are met by the carnation club, and we can single out the technique of '

You must be registered to see the links. One ingame example would be Lucy, who is loosing her self-image as a heterosexual, caring mother and married woman really fast at the moment. I could also post some real-life examples who lost their shit incredible fast throughout their 'career'.- The Taste of Power: the opportunity to exert real power inside the club. I don't think i'll need to cite real-life examples, and we already see the corrupting influence ingame on Edwin. "

I am confident in TD1900s capability to write a consistent and believeable downfall of Hana, if they decide to go down this road.
