From several different sources I know that being a member in "The Young Stags" club gives +1 Shadowy +2 Dreaded and +2 Bizarre. But what does a membership in the Parthenaeum gives you?
And are there other clubs? If there are, what bonuses do they give?

Delighted to oblige! I've made a little chart - here - listing all the existing Person of Some Importance equipment, for comparison purposes.

The Parthenaeum gives you Persuasive +1, Respectable +4 - and as far as I know, those are the only two clubs at the minute. I may be wrong, but I haven't heard of others.

Yes, those are the only two at present. I went with the Parthenaeum for roleplaying reasons (kind of, anyway...does it count if you roleplay as yourself? : p). Both are good choices, though the Young Stags does give a better material benefit, since Dreaded and Bizarre are much harder to get than Respectable.

The Parthenaeum has offered help on one or two storylets. So far I don't think the stags club has helped with any. I personally would stick with the Parthenaeum for the time being just because I've seen actually benefit for membership. Though if a more interesting club comes along I will leave my current one for it.

It's a pun... "club" has two meanings as you may know

Cortez the Killer has killed a Master, definitely.

it's a real club. Highly exclusive, though, as only Vake Killers may join...
I like the idea and the bonuses of the Stag's the best. Hard as heck to get Dreaded and Bizarre up. :P
I prefer the other club. Nice port, surface food, bunch of respectable-but-violent veterans easily spurred to be meat shields/cannon fodder for you...
At the very least, you don't need to rescue them from aunties in order to join. And the card is much better; a 150 Whispered Secrets or a good reduction in suspicion done in style.

What about God's Editors? Aren't they a club too?
And one more question - Can I have two clubs / transports / etc. in my inventory and switch between them whenever I want to? Or can I only have one of each type?
