Hi all, Setara here hoping to find a patron. I am the sort who gets in bar brawls and then hangs out at the palace. I have an affection for Rubbery Men and Tomb colonists. I'm also aiming to get every pet I can.

My current stats are:
Watchful 90
Dangerous 95
Persuasive 94
Shadowy 85


Hope to hear from someone!

Cayna Emor came down to the Neath to seek revenge for her murdered sibling. She's gotten pretty good at the seeking part, but the physical aspect of her whole "revenge" thing could use some work. She is looking for a patron who can help her work out some of the kinks in her stabbing technique, maybe give a few pointers. She's not normally very ferocious so you might have to egg her on with some frustrating academic misrepresentations first (or you could try flirting, that'll always get you stabbed).

Watchful 78
Shadowy 15
Dangerous 58
Persuasive 23

Helen Freshman, on the other hand, is an archaeologist, cryptolinguist, Correspondence scholar, and a guest lecturer at Benthic University. While her wit is inescapable, she would like to be a bit more well-rounded and is eager to learn. She may or may not be distantly related to a certain ordained Franciscan who fell with the Fourth City. Her chiropteromantic zodiac sign is the Crow.

Watchful 104
Shadowy 58
Dangerous 32
Persuasive 63

A riddle you say? She tears an empty page from a notebook and sketches out a series of abstract lines that look suspiciously like Correspondence. She hands you the page. Apparently your task is to identify where on the sigil you can safely place another stroke so that it won't make your eyes bleed but will still set the paper alight. Is this what she does in her spare time?

I am looking for London regulars who are proficient with the Watchful or Shadowy side of the Neath. Duelling was my favourite pasttime for a while...alas I am lacking the various other qualities that are required to properly thrive down here. I'll be very grateful for your help!

(Stat update after 9 days (1.1.2020))

Watchful 43 -> 66
Shadowy 48 -> 64
Dangerous 122 -> 136
Persuasive 66 -> 81

A riddle? I am the riddle. If you want to get to know me, I'll gladly spend a good amount of time to be your penfriend, if you wish me to be. It can get very lonely without one.


Already found somebody for Watchful + Persuasive while personally raising Shadowy via social actions. Should be fine for now!

At your service good noble.
I hate to intrude but, well... let’s just say that I’ve only recently arrived in town and find myself short of friends. I’ll admit the city is a bit cold to strangers. I’ve heard you described in certain quarters as one who would help a new arrival find their feet, in return for... certain recompense. You watch my back and I’ll watch yours, as they say. I may not be much more than an ear to the ground currently, but helping a man up today means he can fight beside you tomorrow, you know.
My card. I hope to hear from you shortly.

Chance DuVert is not particularly new to the city, but they are very impatient and prone to leaving projects on permanent hiatus when things get too slow (like their creator, they probably have ADD). They're impulsive and reckless to the point of self-destruction at times, but that is mostly because they are constantly concerned by how others perceive them. They are actually a bit of a romantic at heart, but they would never admit it to anyone.

Watchful - 94
Shadowy - 73
Dangerous - 83
Persuasive - 70

I'd prefer someone who could help with Persuasive, but anyone willing to help with any of these would be greatly appreciated! And Chance is pretty much friendless at the moment, so they'll take anyone. Thank you.

What belongs to you but is used more often by other people?

EDIT: Patron acquired! Thank you so much to Vivienne Thursday.

d0sboots is a newcomer to London who followed a nightmarish call that first led below, and is now leading... elsewhere. She's looking for any help possible, as buying a ship is required to continue her search...

Watchful - 60
Shadowy - 25
Dangerous - 18
Persuasive - 43

My riddle is simple: What is a Certain Individual's Name? If you know the answer, I (and many others) are *dying* to know...

Edit: Patron acquired! Thank you to the mysteriously named "Is this name available"!

Hello, my name is Ioryck, and I'm new to the reach. While trying to live my life here in London I've stumbled across the knowledge that a patron could help me get around, so I'm looking for someone who can help me be more Watchful and/or Persuasive. I'm still quite weak on skill matters, but you know what they say... well... what was it they said?

Watchful - 14
Shadowy - 39
Dangerous - 16
Persuasive - 17

Thank you all for your time.
At your service, Ioryck.

P.S. Even if you're not looking for a protegé, I won't deny a friend to spend the nights partying or such.


Edit: Someone already contacted me offering patronage. Never thought it would be so quick. But we may still benefit from a friendship, so, contact me if you want so. Thank you all.

Ahoy! Poppet Murray here, a... shall we say, capricious resident of the Neath. It turns out that I certainly could benefit from a patron's wisdom in either Dangerous (71) or Shadowy (71). Don't come a-knockin' otherwise. I'll pretend I'm not home.

I enjoy a good bit of banter, so don't be shy if friendship is what you seek. No woman is an island... unless...

xx, Poppet

Good evening ladies, gentlemen, and my most esteemed others not deigning to fit into such categories!

I am alternately known as 'Jack Shaw', or 'Dapper Dan' in other circles; one would assume for the high regard I have for the veritable merits of certain men's pomade. At any rate, I come with the proverbial hat in hand in a quest. What quest, you ask? To find a better sort of company; an edifying companion that might guide me in the 'Neath and offer the proper mentorship an aspiring gentleman needs in these times. Of course, I am most aware that these are not the days of mere charity alone, and I assure you I fully intend to bring what talents and character can be had to the table in the meantime in return. I can only offer my own friendship, such as it is, and perhaps aid in the future once I have become more settled.
And what sort of person am I, you ask? One who aspires to greater things, to bring myself higher up in London society while not forgetting those who are still down below. I am not ashamed to state I associate with all of decent heart, no matter how rubbery the skin or how long it's been since their last bath. Despite this, I have steadily advanced and applied myself and recently have been invited to higher circles, even to the outer edges of the Court itself! While I place little stock in titles, "VIrtue alone ennobles" after all, the connections allow for greater impact and interesting people to meet.

Through a series of unfortunate misunderstandings, I recently found myself reinventing myself once more. 'Noble' accommodations and clothing are not what I find myself with at this time. For accommodations, I share a bookstore with a most emotionally distraught young man, but the evenings amidst the book stacks are worth it. Books being among my most trusted friends in this place.

In short, I seek a patron, and perhaps more. A friend in the 'Neath, one to help me through London. While I can only offer friendship and witty repartee in return at this time, one can be sure I will endeavor with all my means to return the favor and be worthy of the trust. Tentatively, I find myself most in need of one more skilled in 'low-handed' techniques (Shadowy especially, then Dangerous), but I am not particular as I can use guidance and learn from anyone. Learning more about the trade of the attentive and the persuasive is always useful as well. I await your reply, and I appreciate your gracious consideration.

Respectfully,

Jack Shaw, Esq.
