Phineas's Bounty is a Chapterhouse in Reikos based around the Virtue of Prosperity. A bunch of chancers, malcontents and washups decided that since their own Chapter considered them hopeless cases, they'd found their own, "better" Chapter upon leaving the army. The core of the chapter is made up of rear-echelon screw-ups and their drinking buddies. They found a relatively solid former Druj fort, washed the blood off, put up some Labyrinth banners and claimed it as their own.
The Chapterhouse is basically the Ankh Morpork Night Watch, at the time of Guards! Guards!. A rabble of slobs, petty crooks, and and the Father Teds of the Virtue world. An idealistic type or despairing Jeeves of a Benefactor may be a fun role too.
"Who's Phineas? Why 'e's our founding Exarch. Yeah, 'e's ded. Wandered into a booby trap in one o' the uncleared sections while pissed. Total Vigilance failure, mate. Tragic."
Kit:
- Black, plus off-white or cream.
- Preferably things should look faded and well-washed, but with stubborn stains you just can't wash out.
- We can't afford better, we've had this stuff for years, all our money goes on necessities/gambling/vices.
Goals:
- Be a fun chill out backup concept that is hard to end up plot-jacked on because nobody should trust us with anything.
- Be the most rubbish of Highborn, give everyone else people to priest effectively at.
- Have plenty of Lineaged to blame for why we are most rubbish of Highborn.
- Probably run a bookies on games of skill, as that's a Highborn thing.
- Do not actually be the early books Night Watch, we don't need "Reg Shoe the Draughir" or whatever. But be that sort of shit examples of a uniformed force.
