Description[]
"Through the restaurant window you notice a shady-looking man wearing a jacket covered in strange symbols. He stops in front of a house on the other side of the road. Then, he turns around as if he was checking for any unwanted follower and enters the house. What could it mean?"
Available Choices[]
- 'follow the weird man' (Perception check)
- [Success] "The door is locked but you think you can repeat the knock pattern the suspicious man used. A moment later the door opens and a surprised teen with greasy hair asks who the hell are you. Mistaking nerds for cultists is embarrassing, but deep inside you are relieved" (-2% DOOM)
- [Failure] "The door is locked but you think you can repeat the knock pattern the suspicious man used. Nothing happens" (+2% DOOM)
- 'call the police' (Charisma check)
- [Success] "Police thanks you for the tip, promising to observe the house from now and rewards you." (+1 FUNDS)
- [Failure] "You can't convince the police officer to take you seriously and by the time you manage to find a willing cop, the house is empty." (-1 REASON)
- 'do nothing'
- "You try to convince yourself that everything is all right and you lose your appetite." (-1 STAMINA)
- 'ask the waiter' (Requires Quick Thinking)
- "Before pursuing the man, you ask the waiter if they know him. The waiter smiles and explains that the man is a part of a tabletop role-playing community. You thank him, slightly embarrassed." (+10 EXPERIENCE)
Trivia[]
