Alice (as Grigory takes the shape of many possible suitors): Why are they all wearing the same clothes?

Victor: Because Sophronia isn't helping out.

Sophronia: Oh, shall I?

Sophronia (to Abe about Winston): I'm afraid he has all the undesirable virtues.

This was basically a catch up session, down time. So:

Henry Doyle: Summoned up Neville Smallwood. GM didn't mind him not being a demon, but didn't want a rakshasha, so common consensus is he's a newly embodied (or possibly embodied again after millenia) Roman spirit, perhaps a household spirit, one of the Lares or Penates. He also named names of folks in the Dantallion cult.

Tamar: Nine months ago, Gregory recalled a coach going through Pennsington lands, which are rather off the beaten track. It stopped and a man got out to fetch food for the Lady Tamar, who did not get out.

Sophronia recalls hearing someone somewhere in London discussing Tamar.

Gregory heard of a murder in Paris where a calling card was left, and someone said the murder was done for the honor of Tamar.

Dominic Crehador says that it's an organization based in England that does a little bit of this, a little bit of that -- some mad science, some magic -- and that he's got a standing offer to become one of the Major Arcana, which he has no intention of accepting.

Lord Ashdown asked Abraham Lincoln to help his sister, Eliza Ashdown, find a good husband, as Lord Ashdown can't easily do this from prison. Abraham is busy restoring the lady's reputation. Winston Beauchamp's mother and sisters have taken Eliza under their wing and are considering an alliance with Winston himself.

The GM needs to make up more eligible nobles of both genders.
