Then I am forewarned. I'll get the tiny thumbscrews.

Just seen the option on the Square of Lofty Words - it doesn't sound very friendly and I don't have anyone I am willing to test it on.

    Scuttering rats cost 500 rosty gold from the lofty words card and inflict 3 cp of wounds on your "friend". It'll look like an invitation receive a boxed cat.

    i guess that's the return of the Poison-Masquerading-As-Wounds-Heal to some extent then, in that it's something that appears benevolent that hurts horribly

    That's kind of raw, but I suppose it's just one more way to be mean to the seekers who need their hungry kittycat

    A new weapon, but one intended for newcomers!

    The Emergency Blunderbuss! +1 to Danger and only 50 pence.

    As an avid gun collector in Fallen London, I could not resist purchasing it.

    Oh that makes me insensibly happy. Or at least it makes my revolutionary alt insensibly happy. Power to the underclass! These guns shall be tools against the Masters!

    Are you talking about the rats from the Lofty Words card, or the Scuttering Squad you can buy as pets?

    You can buy yourself a mini regiment of the Scuttering Company now for 500 echoes. Gotta have the rats

    they're probably less jerks than the saboteur boxes I dunno

    their resale price is only 10 echoes for some reason that's weird

    Yeah, I basically just hocked everything I had laying around so I could get more rats, because rats rats RATS rats rats. These mercenaries are cool, and useful, but Hammet (RF Bandit Chief) is still in charge, and they'd better not forget it.

    I seem to be missing something here; are the Dreaded, Bizarre and Respectable scores actually important outside the quest for a map to Polythreme?
    Used when trying to join the Dilmun club - have other uses as well - notably now I can get Dreaded 10 I can automatically scare off the Night-watchman when engaged in a Heist.

    I use dreaded on the card for my subtle mole right now, and it pops up other places here and there.

    I use Bizarre for map pieces, as they're pretty good PPA at Bizarre 10.
    I use Dreaded for heists and my marsh-wolf (marsh-wolf gives whisper-satin scraps, which are a necessity when mapping)

    So for me having +10 in both those can be just as convenient as getting +'es in dangerous/watchful/shadowy/persuasive, as I don't have as much use them when stat-capped in dangerous/shadowy.

    Most interesting, thank you!

    I acquired my map and membership to a certain secret club quite a while back but I do enjoy myself a good Heist.

    It's a Clandestine Rendezvous pet you obtain by trading in some of your Criminal connection.
