Oh, that reminds me, I'm guessing that on Day 7 Dan will take the maid with the most Favor with him, so this game could be partly a Favor Race, too.

We're rolling for favor related to the bath?

Let God do His work, we will see to ours. Bring in the candles.

Yes, if you and another person are in the bath together, then when you get out you get 1d6 Favor.

Aye; it's a mechanic to encourage... bonding, i suppose.

It's a good thing Hitsugi is a resilient girl, or she might have been traumatized for life -_-;...

And apparantly Junko either doesn't notice or doesn't really care. Or she's seen weirder things and this isn't worth commenting on to her.

Ah well... i guess Hitsugi gets to keep being the tsukkomi then. grin

Now that she's all alone, i wonder if she should start kicking down doors - though if she finds a secret passage she has a 50% chance of ending up wherever Dan is and a 50% chance of ending up back in the bathroom...

For the secret passages, I've drawn up a set of blueprints for the house, and marking where some secret areas are. Should we just use those for the secret passages?

Flash: Correct. Assuming that nothing has happened to the McGuffin Papers by day seven, Dan will take the maid who, of all the maids still alive / living in the mansion / who he doesn't suspect of being an enemy agent, has the most favor. If one of the maids finds the McGuffin papers early and can keep them safe till day seven, she is automatically the maid Dan takes.

We could do that too; i was just referring to the fact that the normal 'Secret Passages' facility is basically a random encounter trigger, where opening a secret door brings you to one of the other characters on the encounter table, chosen randomly.

Hitsugi now has item 245, Old Kokeshi Doll.

245 Old Kokeshi Doll

Equipment/Tool

This is a wooden kokeshi doll, an old-style simple wooden doll that basically looks like a wooden head on a stick, that is said to have been carved by a mysterious monk. If you equip it you gain nostalgia as a weapon. The details are unknown, but by attacking with this weapon using Affection, Willpower or Cunning you can cause enemies to succumb to a fit of nostalgia. They remember the simpler days of childhood, perhaps sharing a simple memory of their youth in better days.

Heavily armed + Rum = Bad mix. Unless you're Captain Jack Sparrow. In which case, it's heavily armed with NO rum that's bad.

Okay, I'm going to try for a Skill roll to detect anything in the hall/stairs [1]

Lisbeth now has the nurse's outfit, at no cost to favor.

31 Nurse

Requirements: Affection and Skill 2 or higher.

Restrictions: Cannot use Maid Weapons.

Benefits:

Angel In White: The character can spend Favor to remove Stress points from others on a one-to-one basis. Notes: The uniform of a female nurse. These can be in white or a light pink, and there are a lot of fans of those special nurse caps.

I'm also going to need another skill roll.

Hmm... does that mean she can change into the outfit once at no cost to favor, or multiple times? Usually, Favor is paid for each costume change, even the one to change back into the Maid costume, because if your maid can't afford to change back into the Maid costume before the end of the game (session?) then she is no longer a Maid and can't be used anymore.

Same question as Alhazard.

Second skill roll

Oops, sorry, I wasn't clear. She can change now to the nurse's uniform for no cost, or leave it in the box and change later. Either way, once she changed, she'll have to pay to change outfits, even if it's to change back into the nurse's uniform.

Also, in case it's necessary, i'll roll Hitsugi's Luck to see if she stumbles upon anything in the cellar: 3[1]

I will take that as a 'No' ^_^;...

Think I'll leave it for now. Have to go to class, so no action from me for a couple of hours or so.
