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

[Morzone]

Well, we are trying to save the entire population of a city from mysterious killers whose methods involve going to the farthest extreme possible in torture and fear. Not exactly a situation for sedateness.


Also, sorry if it felt like I was targeting you Velo, I didn't mean for it to sounds like that. I was just trying to suggest that it was something important we needed to do.

Actually though, on your comment on wishing you'd picked security, could there maybe be a pokemon out there that could Teach us security? It could be INCREDIBLY useful if most of us learned our 2nd skill as security. I know Ironrock apartments likely has a lead toward some instructor (since we got that lead early on and with another lead that lead us to an instructor) and maybe we could ask some of the instructors we know about who else could teach us some skills.

It's all good, and sorry if I came across as snappish at you. I'm not upset at you at all; I just feel like we're making little headway and I'm sort of limited in what I can do.


I wish someone could teach us Security, but...

Perks are like proficiencies that characters can use to accomplish objectives and gain access to areas. Using a Perk works the same way as using an item or a Pokémon Attack. Your character starts with one of these Perks, and this is the only one they can get during the course of the game.

[Morzone]

Oh right... It's a perk...

*grumbles inaudibly*

[The Nonexistent Tazz]

We could in theory find a Security-perked civilian who we can Escort to places to defend us during the daytime, but that's unlikely. I'd say that we ought to count ourselves lucky that we found the Exorcism teacher so fast just by chance.

"Oh, hey, whaddup?" "I HOLD THE DIVINE POWER OF EXORCISM!!!" "Oh cool!"

[Shieldbearer]

Hm... Have we made much use of the Investigate skill? Correct me if I'm wrong, but it could be helpful sometimes.

We really haven't... it takes two cycles, but it sounds like it's worth it at this point! All we'd need to do is narrow down who we want to target with it, since some 'mons are straight-up not worth our time and/or may be able to just be vanilla interviewed.

Rabukan, for a start, as even after all this she's still the primary Embalm suspect, is the biggest standout that comes to mind. No-one else, though.

I will say this: no NPC is going to flat-out give you the name of a Stalker. Not only would they have no way of knowing, but we want you to go through the route and figure it out rather than just be told. Exorcism is SUPPOSED to be a gamble; you can't be expected to find out the identity of a Stalker before you hit solid evidence at the end of their 'route.' A.k.a. Exorcism before the completion of a Stalker route is 100% a gamble and is up to you in terms of whether you want to take the risk. You can either wait until you complete the route, or you can do it beforehand if you think you have a pretty solid idea of who it is.

Secondly, you are so close to finishing Philter's route. You all got pretty discouraged upon finding the laptop in the penthouse, but it requires a four-digit code which you need two things to find. One you've already found. You've got one item left to find for this route. I haven't explicitly stated where it is, but I have dropped hints. I'll tell you that Hippita said something which may relate to something in one of Philter's diary entries. It might be a bit of a stretch, but it's there.

P.S. Given how Adrenaline Syringes work, you can technically conduct an Investigation in one turn. None of you have used one yet despite the massive advantage they give! xD

[Pokemon Trainer Sarah]

Thanks for the tips Xanthe! :)

[Suicune's Fire]

No worries!

Additionally, no interview (mission or regular) will decrease your sanity or health. They are 100% safe for people on low health or sanity.

You can also use an Adrenaline Syringe to rest twice and heal two sanity points in one go!
