Dominic's war with the Illuminati continues, and now they've begun taking his stuff! They think he doesn't know, but his most treasured items without fail have a secret broadcasting unit keyed to a chip inside his brain that constantly tells him where they *really* are. Then with a little digging, once he's found the location, he extracts it with a glorious shout knowing that he has triumphed over the deep state yet again!
What Dominic does not know is that in his delusion the chip he developed actually stores things inside digital space, uploading them at just a touch, an innovation that could change the world if he wasn't so insane. While they're non-physical all it takes is for him to activate the chip again by triggering the delusion again to find the item.

Ena is a spectre of The Well- one of many that can be found wandering aimlessly among ruins on the way to Oblivion. She, as well as all the others that were left behind, can desire a variety of things, but most of them are quite abstract. "The desire to want". "The desire to feel". "The desire to experience eating". Even "The desire to feel pain". All sensations, and more, that they are robbed of deep within the Well. For they are pure beings that live in chaos and only once beheld by minds seeking sanity, could they achieve any semblance of form.
Ena is just like them, except she found a way to escape- only to find herself within another prison. Luci, feeling at least moderately shitty about that, found a way to give Ena form that she can project herself onto and experience sensation directly. In return, when it comes time that Luci needs her to help, she's to help.
To give her form, Luci sculpts a copy of herself with enough ink that would comprise a normal human's blood. Ena's natural form changes its appearance to better match her disposition.
Ena is very much an intelligent being, unlike most summons, but her mannerisms are just so toxic and volatile, that getting her to help out with complex calculations is like pulling teeth from a literal child. She, at the very least, provides interesting conversation even though she's pretty unlikable.
She is an average heighted human with pitch black hair in a wolf tail, deceptively soft features, dark brown pupils, black fingernails, and a shadow that's just a wee bit more vivid to especially perceptive individuals.
