This page contains details about Fallen London Actions.

Game Instructions: You've gained a few levels of Suspicion. Suspicion is a menace quality: as it gets higher, it may impede your activities.

Try to keep your menaces low, but don't panic if they sometimes get out of hand. In Fallen London, even death is a temporary inconvenience.

If you like, we can give you some advice on how to deal with one of your menaces.

    Success

    Success Instructions: We've given you a couple of bottles of F. F. Gebrandt's Tincture of Vigour; try using them in your inventory to reduce your Wounds. You can buy more at the Bazaar.

    If your Wounds rise high enough, you can spend time in bed in the 'Social Engagements' area. This is slow but effective, and may reduce your Nightmares as well. If you don't have access to the Social Engagements area yet, you will soon.
