In the back rooms of your club, it's hard to see who's talking to whom. This can be an advantage for everyone.

Game Instructions: This will always cost you Gossip but often gain you something.

Unlocked with 1 x Scrap of Incendiary Gossip


Challenge information

A matter of luck: Pretty good odds (success chance: 70%)

Success

'The very devil!

A chance conversation, and a dozen seemingly unrelated facts click into place like ball-bearings. The whispers on the street-corner! The covered carriage! And the raven that fell mute! At last, it all makes sense!

Rare Success

Promising information

Your informant's tongue is loose tonight. You put together enough ammunition to make life very uncomfortable for a certain wretched someone... if you're willing to stoop to blackmail. Perhaps you could just sell the information on.


Failure

Dubious rumours

You learn more about Watchmaker's Hill weaselry than you might choose. There are some stimulating rumours about the Captivating Princess, but that's more entertainment than information. Nothing more. And your gossip is going stale.
