Lattice: Running Out of Rope

Ask any questions about Lattice here, in or out of character

As per savvyhead playbook, got to have a project going. Let's hear how impossible it is going to be.

Canary isn't strange, and he's fairly cautious. If you think a large scale war between gangs is a bad then you might see him as the biggest problem.

I would say that Canary and Lattice have a professional relationship that involves them doing odd jobs for each other from time to time. Lattice is more of a lone wanderer, while Canary is that NPC that gives out quests! :P

In terms of strangeness depends how you judge it Twilight is probably third behind Eddie and Goldaline in terms of raw weirdness but given their nature that's to be expected, but in terms of people who are odd with no clear reason Twilights probably the most out there. as for potential problem hes probably the biggest loaded gun roaming the city, hes not pointed at anyone yet but the trigger is loose

Armstrong, Eddie and Goldaline to worry about then. Either Twilight or Canary are going to be trouble for Lattice for their own reasons, just trying to work out where to gauge Weirdness on the curve here. You're ALL odd; just which one of you is THE oddest I guess? :)

Time, money, and sugar. Think I can magic those up over this campaign. Something to work on.

Making my mind up about History soon. Canary or Twilight are the most trouble. Canary is likely to be the most obvious pressure bearing down on her since he's at least the nicest of all the murdering cutthroats running the show up here and likely the one who's positioned to get his claws in her. Twilight for reasons that'll just throw her off track and make her act in an utterly irrational manner. Cause he's cute. Still, not ruling anyone out there and got no ideas when it comes to Weirdest.

Questions for Killer and Goldaline first. Killer: Lattice is the longest surviving scavenger in the city, far as anyone knows: does this make her a good role model for your child, or an utterly terrible one that you want her away from? Is there any part of your arsenal I've not had to handle at some point, and what kinds of horrors will I have had to witness as part of the psychometry Things Speak gives out?

Goldaline: At any point have you ended up in a place that Lattice thought impossible to get to without going through the mist first? Have you talked to her about your wolves and do they match up with the fleeting glimpses of the things at sewer level that Lattice occasionally glimpses? Have we traded notes at some point to make our lives at least a bit easier?

'Killer' respects a person who can stay alive in bad circumstances, and below the Mist is pretty much the worst he can think of. He may not say as much, but he damn sure respects Lattice. As to whether he'd want little Toni turning out like her? Hmmm... he's trying to raise her right, proper like his mamas taught him, and that was Before. He ain't sure he wants her sealed up in a wetsuit, but it beats gargling to death in her own blood, so he'll be listening for advice on survival.

As to his gear, Lattice saw into his duffel bag once when they worked together. He's got guns, lots of guns and big ones, all tied to the insides of the bag. They're clean and maintained, and like 'Killer' himself, they're capable of violence aplenty. But even when that big leathery bird-thing near tore his arm off, he didn't get 'em out, he wrassled the thing to death (with help). The juxtaposition of possessing such wealth of violence, and not using it, must surely seem odd to Lattice.

Yes, one of the key features of Goldaline's den is safe passage down through the mist. There is no way she trusts anyone enough to let them near it though. She has been down enough that she knows a few other passages, but those are more susceptible to getting closed off and changed around. Goldaline has been slowly warming up to fold around town, but the two of you haven't gotten close yet. If you have made any scavenging runs together or traded notes, Goldaline agreed to do it purely for her own gain. Othe has not spoken about the wolves to anyone yet

Lets get this locked in given the responses I've got :)
Lattice considers Killer the weirdest: there's just a lot there to unpack there. She has +1Hx on him.
Canary is the largest source of employment and aggravation in her life and thus the most trouble as she gets pulled deeper into his web (nest. Whatever). She has +2Hx on him, and will be choosing a stat highlight for her for the first session.
Everyone else, Lattice has not managed to get a decent read on any of you whether it's because she stays mostly out of your way (Eddie), keeps to her work when you hire her (Pops, Armstrong), or provoke irrational responses from her that she can't rationalise (Goldaline, Twilight) and has -1Hx on them.

For the first session, my pick would be to highlight your Weird. After all, most of the cool savvyhead stuff is weird.
