Fallen London [Echo Bazaar]

^ Wait, you use nex to change destiny?

I go with the among the stars, and choose fate-locked one...got the Road...

Now I'm trying to get all the unique equipments...got the compass and the scintillack so far...

Nah. I was of two mind about this, but I ultimately went with Conquest and chose the Fate-locked route.

Ah, Backstage huh...

Also man I want the hamster!

Indeed. Wasn't it a her? I remembered the hamster from Sunless Sea, I could've swore it was a her.

I would pay for nex, but those prices are sooo expensive, I mean $20 for the biggest fate locked routes? WEH.

I went with the stars when choosing my destiny today and got Authority.

What's the highest Running Battle you can get during the current Gone Fishing storylet? I can't seem to get it higher than 7, even after throwing the fish back to Zee, with all actions being successes.

Which one was that? Secrets Framed in Gold? House of Chimes?

Also yay I got the Preemptive Guinea Pig! It's so adorable~

^ 8 is possible...hoguh I think some people might go even higher according to the collated data people on the irc gathered...you just need to feed it items...those give quite a bit of cp...

Yes! Finally got the elusive Pre-emptive Guinea Pig with a 9 Running battle.

Got all the festival items, so I head back to London, planning to continue the heist...

Then I chose to rob the Brass Embassy...90% chance to success...guess what happened? FAIL! Immediately go to prison...

Yeouch, I think that sets you back ALL of your Rep with the devils.

I don't really care about Hell's rep (I only have like 12 before that)...I care way more about my casing AND shadowy drop...shadowy being my worst stat doesn't help...

And my Persuasive is through the roof due to Subject of Admiring Attention trigger way faster than other stat increase living story (2 days as opposed to others' 6 days) and getting threesome with the curate and his sister...

Anyway, at least I managed to finally rob the damn place after I got out...

To be fair, robbing the embassy does give massive rewards. Also try robbing the bazaar.

Maybe later...right now I'm trying to capture spider council...

the fail for robbing the bazaar will mess you up

Aw. all the Master wanted to do was just to tell you not to go creeping around spooky bats at night. It's just apparently they can't really do english very well so they said it in their own tongue. which apparently causes insanity.

well i mean they talk in english a good deal

but maybe they need to show to you in importance of not disturbing the bats

I was seeking a secret buried deep inside a painting. In the end, I chose to go all the way to the end, hurting a good friend in the process.

We'll see if it's worth it.

Hmm. That's a particular disappointing "Eh, not really.". For everyone else, if the time comes where you must choose to sate your appetite for truth vs. spare a friend, you should do the latter.

Still, I learnt much.

Anyone did soul trade?

i'm too much of a cheapskate to pay for anything

which is why the idea of them reviving mr. eaten's name with fatelocked content freaks me out again

mr. eaten was good because there was one, i say, one real piece of fatelocked content (which i didn't mind because you get roasted in the sun, not counting easy ways out

The problem with old SMEN is actually because it's not really a truly supported content...it's why they're reworking it into the new model...

Still, I'm not at a point where SMEN will matter...

well yeah

but i prefer

"no mercy"

as opposed to

"oh well pay for lore content"

Finally! It took much too long for me to draw that Constable card, now I can begin my foray into the world of actual, non-training profession!

^ So you're being a Watcher? Cool! I'm Rat-catcher right now.

Also...should I go POSI now? My stat is 86w/83s/90d/98p, and I'm literally 1 click away from being POSI (got my velocipede and all that)...
