[SEASON 2] Stalkers RPG General Chat Thread (The Secret Clubhouse!)

[The Nonexistent Tazz]

The issue is, if she's actually the Stalker, (A) restraint means she gets to do nothing, and if we confirm it via showing her the Philter notes (and her subsequently freaking out over that), (b) we can instant-Exorcise her, which would leave some kind of weird and thus far unrevealed method of telepathy as the only way the information would get out-and considering the information in question was literally gained in her own house, I doubt it would reveal much. (Of course, we can simply refuse to reveal how we got the other note). I feel like I will be doing such, unless we're really against it. After all, she might feel repentant if she's going to just leave it out in the open.

I... was joking about showing her the Philter notes. It has some strategic legitimacy, but... well, you know what happened the last time some idiot (me) pulled a stunt like that.


That said, I'm not against it, but I would like to advise you to take one thing into consideration: this might be the sort of action that increases our second Doom Counter, which depends on Stalkers cottoning on to our operations. I'm not saying Bad Idea Do Not Do, but it's a risk to consider.


Anyone know what I could do this evening? I can always hold my action in reserve if I need to exorcise Nairek, and I'd prefer to avoid looking into potentially draining areas so I don't go Berserk if I get called upon for an exorcism.

Well, the other time we did that, we got as close as possible to a confession as we could in that situation (from Millie as Koax), and juding from the wording here, if Nairek really is Philter, then she'll hopefully do something akin to that. I'll reserve questioning of that for last.

That she'll raise that counter, assuming she is a Stalker, is a possibility, but we have wriggle room here. It's not like it'll instantly cap out at 100% from just showing two notes, one of which was in plain sight.
