Project Update: The Martian Unlocked and The Informals Revealed!

We are excited to announce The Martian is unlocked and will be joining Hargrave House! If you haven't already done so, join us on The Gauntlet Discord to learn more about all these terrific achievements we're unlocking. 

Speaking of achievements...

The Informals are now revealed!

Our $215K achievement is a really exciting one: The Informals! From the campaign page:

"We’ll add a new playbook to Shadow Society: The Informals! The Informals is the first troupe-style playbook for The Between, meaning when you choose this playbook, you’ll be playing multiple characters at once! The Hargrave House Informals are a group of street people who assist the hunters with their investigations. Each phase, you pick which Informal you want to use: Elsie Willow, a canny woman of the night; Kip Longfellow, a resourceful street urchin; Silas Gren, a butcher who has… seen things; Velma Thenwicket, a well-connected governess; Pig’s Ear, the most talented pickpocket in London; Brother Samuel, a disgraced vicar; Barrel Staves, an absolute unit; and one you create on your own. Each member of the Informals has their own special talents and resources they bring to the investigation, as well as a secret shame that haunts them. While the Informals don’t live in Hargrave House, they are connected to one hunter, their Benefactor, with whom they have a special rapport, and who allows them to access new abilities. 

We almost forgot one thing: the Informals are each doomed. Throughout the campaign, they will be gruesomely murdered, one-by-one, by an unseen serial killer. The hunters will have to answer a Question related to the killings, the answer of which might see the serial killer joining Hargrave House themselves! What will Hargrave House do when they have an infamous murderer lurking within their walls?" 

(Tl;dr: It's the Baker Street Irregulars meets Jack the Ripper)

The Clockwork Cuttery on deck

Our current achievement is a new Threat, The Clockwork Cuttery! We're just over $5K away from unlocking it. As ever, the more you can help us spread the word, the quicker we'll get there. We'll leave you with the penny dreadful art for this Threat. As ever, thanks so much for your support!
