    Success

    Knowing where you stand and who's standing behind you

    Success Instructions: Hastily Scrawled Warning Notes offer you Second Chances on Shadowy checks. You can use Second Chances to retry a failed check - but you must choose to spend them before attempting it. If you fail, you get another shot. You lose the Second Chance either way.

    Second Chances are particularly useful for branches that you can only attempt once, or where failure would set you back to some degree. You may find these useful for concluding this affair.

    You can also spend Second Chances in Your Social Engagements to improve your skills.
