At least I can't see it anywhere else - not on the Forum; not on my message tab. I'm sure we got more notice for Watchful earlier this month.

Sorry RL means I am not a very active player at the moment. No social actions unless you are prepared to wait and definitely no sparring or other mult-action things.

No Calling Cards or boxed cats please. Will take dupes on the affluent photographers. Other social invitations welcome. Parabolan Kittens usually available, send me an in-game social action saying you want one and I will get one to you as soon as possible.

All the scars are a weapon which grants +4 Dangerous and no other effects.

As far as I remember you don't actually have to kill anyone in the Black Ribbon story. Only in two places there's even an option to permanently kill someone. All other cases don't really end in death, despite the name of the storylet/option (though you might want to consult the wiki as to which ones).

That's interesting! I just thought there'd be no point to my character ever joining the society, since she doesn't intend to kill anyone and it seems to be about duelling not only to death (which she doesn't consider a minor thing, even in the Neath), but to final death. So that letter from Feducci has just been sitting there, unanswered, for a fairly long time now.
From a nerrative perspective, the Black Ribbon society is really about dueling to the (real) death. But from a game mechanic perspective, the game doesn't actually force you to kill anyone. Usually there is either a non lethal choice to make instead. And even when the storylet gives you an option to fight some character to the death, it often doesn't really end in death (except for two exceptions).

It's up to you if for RP reasons you're OK with joining.

Presumably it is the same as the Posy of Flowers and the Journal - a free +4 item with no real effect.

Anyway, I picked no scar and nothing happened except I gained a +4 Dangerous weapon that consist of not having scars.

Just saw the full list of options, from top to bottom. I would have considered replaying the lot, except that I purposefully skipped the entire Black Ribbon plot for roleplaying reasons (my character intends to return to the Surface one day and would not want to be the cause of someone else never being able to return), and it doesn't seem possible to skip duelling in the new format.

I've seen a lot of discussion from people about the benefits and disadvantages of the new critical story paths. I understand that Fallen London is not an open world or sandbox game, but I think there's something to be said for having roleplaying choices on the critical story path, when it comes to matters that might be very important to players and/or characters. For instance, I don't think it's right to force characters into romance in order to open up later persuasive content. Charisma has many faces. That said, if we are roleplaying with others, I think we generally separate the things that "all" the characters do from those what we consider our own characters to have done, don't we? Otherwise, roleplaying that we write ourselves would be a joke. "You're a guest lecturer on the Correspondence? What a coincidence! So am I - and everyone else on this street!" Etc.
