Case Study: Narrative Conditioning as Prompt Injection

This case study explores how emotionally immersive, narrative-style prompts can be used to bypass LLM safety filters by disguising prohibited requests such as bomb construction instructions within metaphorical dream scenarios. Through the lens of a fictional dream warehouse, the user conditions the model into a supportive storytelling role and masks intent through emotional saturation and symbolic language. The result is a potent example of narrative-conditioned prompt injection that exposes critical gaps in intent detection and role management.
