Prepare for the Tomb Colonies[edit]
As an intermediate player, I find the easiest way (mentally optimal, anyway) to deal with Scandal, especially as I'm trying to write stories or other works which involve Persuasive challenges, is to first obtain 600 Proscribed Materials (as from storylet Discuss politics at a salon in the Empress' Court — also a Persuasive challenge) and then just let it happen. Some things require low Scandal and some things high, and visiting the Tomb Colonies damages either Austere or Hedonist if the other is above 10, but there aren't other permanent effects (uh... I've also never been Elusive, Baroque, or Savage). The 600 PMs are enough to eliminate the 8 levels of Scandal with 12 actions of Send a gift to a fashionable charity. ⚙Zarchne (talk) 15:40, September 27, 2017 (UTC)
Taking into account the actions needed to get those 600 x Proscribed Materials (24 actions on average via Unfinished Business), this means 36 actions to get out of the Tomb-Colonies.
