The Corrupted

[Alice Dodd]

Someone with notes is gonna come along later, but I feel a distinct need to underline this.

THERE IS A NEW WARBAND TO OUR KNOWLEDGE. HE'S BEEN AROUND A WHILE.
HE MAKES BUSINESS DEALS AND CAN GRANT POWER TO THOSE WHO DEAL WITH HIM
IN ORDER TO FUCK HIM UP WE NEED ABSOLUTECLARITY ON THIS ONE POINT.

DO. NOT. TALK. ABOUT. HIM. TO. OUTSIDERS.

THE LESS HE KNOWS THAT WE KNOW ABOUT HIM, THE MORE READILY WE CAN FUCK UP HIS OPERATION.

INFORMATION REGARDING HIM IS TO BE TOWNSFOLK ONLY. AUBERGINE IS AWARE. THAT IS IT.

[Alice Dodd]

And before you come in with some "But if others know about him he can't hurt them" argument, I want to be clear.

You're right.

But this will be the best way to stop him. We know this from investigations. Just fuckin' don't.

Yeah so before I get people warning me of this. I appreciate the concern, I do. But the more damage this stronzo does to any sort of social support infrastructure the more other ones have to rise up to take their place otherwise he'll succeed. I've been warned if I grow slowly I might be able to avoid his attention for a time. If I grow quickly I might be able to gain his focus though. That's the current plan, it's not a good plan but it's something. Though if anyone wants to look in to how to deal with this guy in an expeditious manner it would be appreciated since I'm probably going to have him and the 13th Ring saying "Hi" soon enough.

I have put out feelers for a Belmont Society representative to come visit to discuss business at the coming gather. If someone wants to be a part of thier discussions with me please let me know now.

[Abby Peterson]

No need on the meeting itself, though if Nora Belmont herself shows, let her know that I'd like to talk to her before she leaves.

An ability the Corrupter has demonstrated is the ability to possess others, or mentally influence them to a severe degree. One of the symptoms appears to be the eyes blackening fully, covering the sclera (whites of the eyes) as well.

Damnit, I forgot that was a common trait. Yes, thank you Kaiser, that's likely it and we'll check that out further.
