IntereoVivo Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 Hey folks. I'm looking to build a series of permanent homes for my Ressers and have settled on a 3'x3' modular board. Fluff-wise I'm particularly partial to Seamus and so I'm leaning toward making the Red Chapel Gang a home first. First step is to figure out my theme for said home and for that I've come to you. What does Red Chapel look like? Is it a small village? A train stop? Near a mine? I know there is a Red Chapel...or is there? Is it the name of a seedy bar in one of the slums bordering the Quarantine Zone? Or is it the name of a slum (possibly where the Belles used to ply their trade)?

Linus Mcmold Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 (edited) I think Redchapel is a district where madame Sybelles' establisment was situated Open Spoiler , a whorehouse. Seamus has a lot of safehouses and I was surprised that he actually has living people as friends/crime associates besides other ressurectionists. He has an admirer/benefactor relationship with a woman who used to send him letters of admiration (probably because he's a famous mass murderer or something). He doesn't find her attractive, so he spared her from becoming a belle. Anyways, she's a contractor and has businesses with seedy characters, crooligans etc. Seamus probably has other contacts with the Malifaux underground, so that's how he has acces to safehouses.

rgarbonzo Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 Actually Red Chapel is a neighborhood in Malifaux, I always equate it to the White Chapel area of London from the 1890's. Madame Sybelles establishment was... Madame Sybelles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuttleboy Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 I thought Redchapel was an indirect reference to Jack the Ripper. Several murders that he supposedly committed were in the Whitechapel district of East London. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_the_Ripper#Later_Whitechapel_murders ...and it really is one word "Redchapel", check his box.

IntereoVivo Posted August 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2013 Ooooh, This is kind of exciting. I thought I was going to have a board with lots of open spaces but it's sounding like I can do a Victorian city instead. Though that makes my job a whole ton harder. Also, Linus and Tuttleboy, good catch on Redchapel being one word. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
