D--- my curiosity! (betrayed Lilac to Clathermont) Messages in this topic - RSS

Ah, the dastardly climb to even one single Blackmail Material in very early game. My 3rd alt decided to betray Lilac to Clathermont and now I have sold almost everything she owns to get Proscribed Material so I can convert up to BM. It's honestly the worst choice I've made on FL. If anyone has any ideas on how to get literally any Rumour items fast, I would be most grateful. (Why couldn't I just believe her when she said she wouldn't be there if I told anyone? Blasted spirit of inquiry!)

Alt #2,Lady Jacqueline Blackwood, the Savage Beauty.
Alt #3, Veracity Taylor, the Dame of the Docks.
The Dogged Seeker, self explanatory.

I will accept any social actions on Fallen London(unless its a box of live rats. I already got rid of the d---ned things once and am not eager to repeat the endeavor).

If you have 25 Incendiary Gossip you can wait to draw the fairly common "Wanted: Reminders of Brighter Days" card. Succeed or fail, you'll get Blackmail Material, which can skip a step for you. But there aren't any fantastic options, especially for a newish character.

you can get Blackmail Material from the Curt Relicker for 120 Certifiable Scraps. Or you can side-convert to Incendiary Gossip and then up-convert from there, but if my math is right that'll cost you 150 tier-three items and four Society favors. You can also combine these two methods by trading a smaller number of scraps to the Curt Relicker. Or you can get Blackmail material by finishing the Velocipede Squad carousel and attending a funeral. But these might all be difficult for a low-level character.

Several Professions get paid in Blackmail material: I think it's Journalist, Author, Watcher, Conjurer, and Crooked-Cross.But that probably won't help if you're in a hurry.

Hieronymus Drake: Gentleman scholar, big-game hunter, scar-faced aristocrat. Remarkably sane, all things considered.
Tanith Wyrmwood: Longshanks cat-burglar; Bohemian author; now, perhaps, something more. Bubbly, expressive, and affectionate. It’s not only still waters that run deep.
Telemachia Lee: Gentle lady by birth, brawling Docker by choice. Good company in the drunk tank.

OK SO what I'm now doing is buying tons of Third City Relics and upconverting to Mysteries of the Elder Continent and then taking the shortcut to Scraps of Incendiary Gossip. Hopefully I can get this done before the tattoo parlour closes!

How are you set for Favours: Revolutionaries? There's a Standard Frequency card that you can draw only when you're in the Flit that lets you trade 3 Revolutionaries Favours to get 720 Proscribed Materials, which you can upconvert to other Revolutionary items. If your alt has access to the Foreign Office, there's a method that you can grind directly, but if she's a newish character she probably doesn't.

You can also acquire Blackmail Material in Flash Lays. Go and harass an Auditor.
