Greetings one and all. My name is Aryn York and I have newly entered the Neath and, as in all things, I am finding that it is often the people I know that matters as much as the things that I do. As such, I am looking for a Patron. I, myself, am an Enquirer into the secrets of the city, secrets that I must know, even if I have to gamble away my soul to win these facts.
I am looking for a Patron who can help introduce me to the better class of people in the city (Persuasive) or learn how to ferret out their secrets more swiftly (Watchful).
I am also always up for coffee or a game of chess.
[color=rgb(0, 0, 0)]Salutations to you all. It seems that I have caught the attention of several important persons! How exciting! However despite my irresistable charm, sagacious intelligence, and perilous ferocity, it seems that even my gifted tongue will not help me in the arts of subtlety and cunning. As such I am currently looking for an Invisible Eminence to train me in such arts. I am also willing to negotiation over any payment that you may deem necessary.[/color]

Edit: SHADOWY / WATCHFUL / PERSUASIVE patron found! Still looking for DANGEROUS patron.
Again, greetings to everyone!
I believe myself to be a jack-of-all-trades, but there is value in humilitation, and I have a murderer to chase.
I will need to do anything and everything, even things I don’t know.
But I am new to the Neath, and I will greatly appreciate the education and instructions from an experienced mentor!
I am a progidy at fencing, yet the rough terrains and occupants of London is not something I am used to.
Seeking mentors of all kinds.

I am looking for a Legendary Charisma and also an Invisible Eminence at the moment. EDIT: Pyla has had the honor of being approached by a Legendary Charisma! And has recently been approached by a mysterious Invisible Eminence. edited by pyla8 on 8/26/2015 edited by pyla8 on 8/26/2015
Hmm, who’s this? A woman approaches you, she looks to be around 20 years old. She’s wearing a green dress, a long trench coat and a shiny pair of green goggles. Her flat, black hair is pulled up into a messy bun and she greets you with a sweeping bow. You know as soon as you see her that she’s memorizing your features and the surroundings. You also know that she must be lacking in shadowy and dangerous. She wasn’t very quiet about approaching you and you doubt she is with anyone else.
She smiles, it’s a sly half-grin and it almost seems to be plastered to her face &quotI’m Concede, but my real name’s Udorie Faine, it’s a pleasure to meet you, dear.&quot
I’m currently looking for any patrons, besides shadowy, thank you very much.
Riddle- A man is trying to get to truth town. He comes to a fork in the road between truth town and lie town. In lie town everyone lies and in truth town everyone tells the truth. Another man is standing in the fork in the road, he doesn’t know which town the man is from. How can he ask the man one question that will enable him to get to truth town?

Greetings, fellow friends of more than suitable deliciousness. My name is Myriandus - scholar of the Correspondence, friend to the rubbery men and one whose face is known to the Masters. I’m currently trying to become a person of some importance, and through the use of marvellous items have managed to achieve this aim most wonderfully. Alas, my shadowy is far too low, and delays this process considerably.
I’d most graciously request assistance from: An Invisible Eminence [Shadowy]
In character I’m primarily interested in exploring, indulging in curiosity without upsetting the status quo too much, and ingratiating myself to those above me while remaining magnanimous to those around me. If you add me, feel free to detail what social actions you don’t wish to engage in. If I see that you are wounded, I will be sending you cures.
Outside the game, I’m a university tutor and freelance scriptwriter who’s working on an indie novel. Hobbies include boardgames, roleplaying and fencing.
Unfortunately, I don’t have a favourite riddle (unless you count Tom Marvolo, forgive me if the joke has been made), and now feel all the poorer for it.

I am searching for patrons who are An Invisible Eminence,Shattering Force and Legendary Charisma.
I really need help at Dangerous, Shadowy and Persuasive.
Please PM or something. THANKS!
Edit: Though propriety prevents me from revealing their identity, I have acquired a Patron of Invisible Eminence. I thank this forum for assistance.
Good Afternoon.
My name is Oskar Glass and I am a man of not insignificant perception and dialectical competence… but lack rather profoundly in my physical subtlety and aptitude for brute force. I am in search of A Shattering Force or An Invisible Eminence to assist with my trials and hunts about Fallen London.
Watchful 45
Shadowy 26
Dangerous 16
Persuasive 48
Within Fallen London, I am impulsive and kind, with a penchant for biting off more than I can chew. I prefer the interesting and wondrous to the lucrative or the stable. I am easily seduced by intriguing tangles with the wrong sort, but in the end, find myself anchored to a better nature (for better or worse). I cannot abide the harming of my fellow man for profit or sport, but if a crime is victimless, then certainly there would be no harm in an indulgence from time to time.
Without, I am something like or as a poet, and an avid roleplayer.
Any and all assistance is appreciated in the fullest measure.
Edit: Whoops, I forgot the riddle! Here is one of my favorites:
My tines are long, my tines are short
My tines end ere my first report
What am I? http://fallenlondon.storynexus.com/Profile/Oskar~Glass edited by OskarGlass on 8/27/2015 edited by OskarGlass on 8/27/2015 edited by OskarGlass on 8/29/2015
Tally Ho! I am Rex Banner, man of action and in general a magnificent and sagacious gentlemen. Despite my charms and intellect, I find myself constantly being thrashed most soundly by rogues and zailors of the worst sort who keep finding me when I am snooping around during my adventures by the docks. I am seeking a Shattering Force or an Invisible Eminence to assist me in my endeavours.
My current measurements are as follows:
Watchful 68
Shadowy 60
Dangerous 65
Persuasive 94
I’m afraid riddles are not my forte, I prefer a ribald story and a thump on the back. A simple riddle I enjoyed while drinking was as follows
Always running, never walking
Occasionally babbling, never talking.
Edit: I am currently receiving patronage in Watchful from a rather scary but knowledgeable person. edited by Rex Banner on 8/30/2015
Greetings. I am Apryl Weather, and at the moment I am seeking a way to Zee so that I may continue to aid the Fading Opera Singer and her sister. I am also a mildly successful writer who has not yet decided on Benthic or Summerset.
Hello, Delicious Friends. I am jhodder, a duelist of the Black Ribbon and hunter of savage beasts. Due to constantly attending to the demands of society, I’ve found myself growing a tad fascinating. This is not a proud spot for me, as I find writing, attending balls, and flirting with spoiled brats rather droll compared to climbing high above the markets of Spite. It also feels wrong to spend so much time with sheltered society given my humble origins. I’d like to spend more time in The Flit or perhaps embark on an expedition, however I’ve found it difficult to become shrewder or craftier. I’m closest to the honest men of the docks, however I’ve found that I’m regarded with some disdain, and cannot yet purchase a ship. I’d appreciate it if an Invisible Eminence or perhaps an Extraordinary Mind could show me the ropes, so that I could perhaps someday advance my station.
I am Fredison, an irresistible, breathtaking and lethal lady. I am closest to Hell and may have misplaced my soul somewhere along the way. Oh, well. Sometimes these things happen.
My relentless climb of the social ladder sometimes leads me to unfortunate misunderstandings. While I prefer to eschew forceful methods of conflict resolution, I must grudgingly admit the occasional necessity of closing one’s fist. To this end, I currently seek the tutelage of a Shattering Force. I may, however, accept offers from those who have something else of value to offer me. I am always very kind to my friends.
Greetings, delicious friends. I am Dayspring, an author and amateur (but not unskilled, if I may say so myself) detective. Homicides and mysterious disappearances are of particular interest to me. Unfortunately, I cannot say that the Constabulary are all that fond of me, despite my attempts to offer my assistance. Ah well. Luckily, I am patronized well enough by some of society’s wealthier members to carve a living. I am currently chasing a villain who has fled across the Zee, and now find myself requiring a ship. After all, most captains consider it beyond foolhardy to carry passengers to the Iron Republic…
My current attributes:
Watchful - 113 Shadowy - 82 Dangerous - 90
Persuasive - 104
At the moment, I am in dire need of advice from A Shattering Force (Dangerous) or an An Invisible Eminence (Shadowy). I am not ashamed to admit that I would hardly last days on the Zee with my current abilities. I would be most grateful for any assistance.
Oh, on an unrelated note. I overheard a clever riddle the other day: "I can be flipped and broken, but I never move. I can be closed, and opened, and sometimes removed. I am sealed by hands. What am I?"
[Late edit: I feel incredibly silly. I didn’t realize that raising one of my base stats above 100 would render me unable to access the "Seek a Patron" card from my lodgings (even with a Talkative Rattus Faber equipped). Am I still eligible to be adopted by a patron, instead?] edited by Dayspring on 9/17/2015
Pleasant nights to you all, delicious friends! I am Addis Rook (Roobz is a silly monicker I’ve grown kind of attached to.) and I am an author of myriad stories in our little city of Fallen London. Though I am doing quite well for myself, I will never allow myself to become so arrogant as to think I am above seeking out the help of other people. My reputation and fame as an author is welcomed, but sometimes… troublesome. I am looking for An Invisible Eminence (Shadowy) to teach me ways of avoiding attention when I so desire. While I like the upper class, they can be a bit overbearing in their affections. And I have other business to attend to, as well. business high society must not be informed of.
my current attributes:
Watchful- 69
Shadowy- 45
Dangerous- 60
Persuasive- 137
I look forward to meeting one of you denizens of darkness soon! edited by Ruby Correspondent on 9/2/2015
My current stats:
Watchful-14
Shadowy-22
Dangerous-59
Persuasive-19
As you can see, I like to take the…direct approach to difficult situations and would appreciate the opportunity to advance my skills in that area, regardless of the legality of such business. On that note, a Shadowy patron could also be quite an advantage since avoiding the Constables can be quite a pain so a patron with either of these skills would be most welcome.
Greetings humans, I’m looking for a mentor in danger. I’m an irresistible and shrewd gentlesquid wishing to become better at hitting things, maybe kicking things, if i’m lucky. I’ve currently been exiled twice because I’m just that scandalous, and almost lost my mind on multiple occasions, thankfulfully not yet though. I kinda lost my soul.
