I have Watchful 88+16, is that enough? Also thank you for the advice! That’s actually very helpful.

That would put you at Watchful 104 or thereabouts. Honestly, I’m not sure. I don’t recall the first time I died in Fallen London, it was so long ago, and I don’t think you can just buy a Horsehead Amulet at the Bazaar any more (that’s a get out of Death one time free! item). At your level I suggest stocking up on inexpensive warm fuzzies instead. I believe you don’t have to have them "on" you (as a Companion) to use them this way.
It may be that you don’t even get the chess option unless you’re at a certain level. I really don’t recall. Perhaps someone else will comment here about that.
Meredith’s other suggestions (tincture of Vigour, the time in bed action) are great for keeping your Wounds below 8. Those can be used by characters at all levels. Good luck!
