Does that include people who know they have been afflicted by the Black Breath?

The deadline is negotiable, but will likely be around 5pm Central (11pm GMT).
I would encourage that time to be later...like at least two hours later.

It does not. Anyone can claim to have been targeted at any time.

That's likely. It's more that the deadline can't be before then due to my own schedule. I want to accommodate as many folks as possible.

That was what I assumed but I thought it best to get clarity.

Yay!

Has anyone heard from the Finns in awhile?

Am sorry to say that I cannot join, but sounds like a thrilling game! I will follow along as much as I can.

But wouldn't that just give the "goodies" a loophole? The targeted people can freely announce that they were targeted, and the gifteds can just keep saving them. Seems a bit hard for the baddies to get around.

That only take one death to unmask...

Maybe I'm not seeing this through completely. I guess it would be more balanced without the gifteds revealing.

Once a person has been demoralized, the only person who can save them is the herbalist, and as the herbalist has limited uses on his or her gift, folks are still going to die.

Oh yes, there will be blood.
