FISTS
The only TOOL you NEED. Are the rules unclear on bringing a dog to a fistfight? This is the Moth Circuit, nightfist! You set the Rules of Engagement when you enter the circuit! All comes! Give it your all! You'll take on everybody!!!!
>>5627372It's manifestly easier to take on all comers in back to back brawls when you have an anatomist on your side. And look at these exciting new ways to understand all the various directions bones should not bend! Aha!
Doc, your needle skills are fantastic and with some slight effort, it does actually appear your needles work that way. The Nerve-Artisan's Toolkits helpfully provide Alchemy for general crafts but also Sedatives and Stimulants, for more specific exotics. Better still, the Alchemy and the Stimulants/Sedatives combine. It is rather costly, but by providing Woeheart Magntiude, it helps you mend flesh and fix bone. And you're certainly getting some training that tonight!
You could try to brew up a Fatigue-Killer, with cunning and alchemy or Woeheart (It's not all sigildry, see, it also covers biology). Then feed it to someone, and knows its base effect will always be at least 3. Same for the sedatives, which can be quite useful. And of course, know you the ways and woes of blood, drug delivery through such things as the membranes between brains and body is no barrier. With a vial in your hand of, let's say, Thoughtmud [cunning+alchemy/woeheart/medicine to craft, deals Fatigue], you'd be able to easily convert it to gasseous form and have someone drink it [Woeheart+Manipulate to move the drug into someone].
Of course, is one a Specialist, one might instead move it unto a tile as a cloud and sustain it there so all comers who breathe in... Well.
Oh, I think I hear Mimic punching someone's sense of self so hard they'll doubt their own future plans! WOOOOH.

... Why is the Officiant still writing?
Oh, she just sent off a runner. That Seems Normal. Maybe in an open challenge to all comers it's good to invite people sometimes? Hah, look at you! Rulers of the night fist exchange, peerages of punch. A stalwart and s student, pugilists combined, and not half bad at throwing down either. These people are all taciturn and tactical, on their way from one mission to another, checking out the local talent. Mentioned something about scouting out the Rikovillian coast? Pfh, who'd go there this time of year.
No, the only REAL action is here! And look, the runner is back. He nods at the Officiant. You can't tell how she reacts because Moth Circuit Officiants all wear the Mothmask.
