It partly wants it so it can more easily drown its secrets.
Riddle - You’re in a room with two doors. There’s a guard at each door. One door is the exit, but behind the other door is something that will kill you. You’re told that one guard always tells the truth and the other guard always lies. You don’t know which guard is which. You are allowed to ask one question to either of the guards to determine which door is the exit. What do you ask?
Can people start editing their posts to reflect that they have a Patron? I’ve been looking for a Watchful Protégé for ages, but every time I go to send the invitation it says they are not eligible anymore.[li]
A character can have more than one patron, so if your invitation is showing up as "not eligible", it may be because you haven’t yet exchanged calling cards (a requirement for patronage) rather than the fact that a potential protegee is no longer interested.
He is primarily looking for a Shattering Force to tutor him. He recently discovered the journey towards importancehood requires delving in all kinds of activities, and he’s not too keen on rat-hunting and such.
Although many call him a thief, his main interest are secrets - the riches he may or may not obtain in the process are just a side effect. He has a soft spot for Urchins and the Raggedy Men, which is why he bought a Rooftop Shack. He spends his spare time coquetting with devils and falling through mirrors far too often.
Good evening everyone,
I have found other Patrons here before and they are lovely. Unfortunately I find myself without a Dangerous Patron. If anyone is willing to take me under their wing and teach a young lady how to defend herself in this fallen city I would be much obliged.
My Dangerous is still at 66.
Thank you all for reading,

Your Aunt is a seeking only patrons of the highest quality and finest calibre! Excellent breeding is of course a given. Persuasive or Dangerous nieces and nephews are particularly preferential, but any will do as the poor dame is particularly new to London.
Besides, if you don’t help her you’ll never hear the end of it at family reunions! Step to it, children! http://fallenlondon.storynexus.com/Profile/Your~Aunt edited by Hark DeGaul on 7/29/2016
I know the rules, but am throwing out that my character is an extremely “shattering” sort of Patron. I will accept calling cards, but those interested in Patronage must welcome heavy RP.
Please send a calling card in care of the Cheery Man; Kamin will get it.
Hello everyone, I’m Julius Crow, an intriguing and shrewd gentleman. My stats are Watchful 70, Shadowy 40, Dangerous 30, and Persuasive 62.
I am looking to improve either my Persuasive or Watchful, preferably my Persuasive.
I am not roleplaying with my character, because I want to experience everything the Neath has to offer. As shown by my stats, I want my character to be a charming and persuasive individual, because I think that would be useful in a city such as Fallen London.
Thank you for reading my post and I appreciate any offer that is sent my way.
EDIT: I have a patron for Persuasive and Watchful. If any Shattering Force or Invisible Eminence is willing to give me patronage I will gladly accept it. edited by Julius Crow on 9/1/2016
Good day to everyone who have gathered here. My name is Mr. Slaughterhouse. I am primarily a man of science and knowledge, but I always keep my steel hat at hand for just in case.
My Watchful is 101
My Shadowy is 95
My Dangerous is 91
My Persuasive is 100
I currently seek patronage from a Shattering Force or an Invisible Eminence. edited by Slaughterhouse-5 on 9/19/2016
Hello! I recently gained access to the University, am a minor poet, and am currently engaged in Hunting Dangerous Prey to increase my Dangerous. But now, I am looking for an Invisible Eminence to help me with my Shadowy endeavors.
My goal is to reach 25 in all stats as soon as possible so that I can do the Exceptional Friend story with the recommended stats so I’m open to patrons from any field. My Ambition Story mostly relies on Dangerous checks though so that would be preferred if I can only chose 1 stat at a time. My name in game is exactly the same as the one here.
I’m not to big on riddles and the only ones I remember are really immature so here’s something google provided.
What word in the dictionary is spelled incorrectly?
Ah, once I had a brilliant mind, I scorched myself with Correspondence and took but the slightest of harm. But…but…but…I gazed too close at…ahem…that which should not be named so publicly. I wish to continue my search down that long and calling well. Help me, good sirs and madams and discerning indeterminate folk. Bolster me that I might try again. Oh my name? THE NAME THE NAME THE NAME…erm…ahem…cough. Wrenish. edited by Wrenish on 8/31/2016
I don’t know much about patronage, but if anyone would be willing, I’d like a patron? my base stats are:
Watchful 86
Shadowy 77
Dangerous 77
Persuasive 83
(so a bit of an all rounder…) I’m currently playing the Person of Some Little Consequence storyline, not sure if that affects it! Also I’m a lazy RP-er (due to Real Life Time Constraints)… probably not selling myself very well but I respond to all social interactions and both me and my character are, generally, attempting to be lovely people. Mostly. Jean, at least, prefers not to kill people…
