Travelling At Night · Beginner guide
A practical opening routine for exploration, dialogue and recovery.
2 · Build around the checks you use
Inspect the success chance and alternative Skills. Spend matching Experiences on the approaches you regularly choose. Keep a few matching Aspect pips available for an important near miss.
3 · Recover before the next difficult conversation
Review the icons beneath Spencer’s portrait. At high Dread, Pain or Fascination, find rest or an appropriate curative Rite before accepting another risky check.
4 · Prepare occult tools deliberately
Bring a one-use item with the Aspect required by the occult operation. Matching materials give a bonus; improvising without them imposes a penalty. Do not spend a rare tool before understanding the situation.
5 · Leave with your affairs settled
Claim finished Plan rewards, collect crafted results and use Refreshments that will expire during travel. Check travel papers and destination access; repeating the same route adds Traces.
