Well, all things considered, I was planning on assigning some of my own.
I'm not going to force you (Daphné) to buy off Ailin' (since you ARE dead,
after all...  how much more ailin' could you be?), but you WILL be keeping
Night Terrors.

You know, the 22nd is seeming a long, long way away.  (Finale of 'The Quick
and the Undead' ... yes, you can all groan now.)

As for the five points of Harrowed-related Hindrances, I'm open to
suggestions (I just reserve the right not to use them).
