Factions in Whitechapel

Dear Diary,

What kind of odd creatures will the characters be confronted with?
Will they be friends, allies, or enemies ?


Here a list of list of the factions in Whitechapel for Into London:

I use a 2Dx result for the random encounters, so that the average results are encountered more often. With this I try to emulate the fact that this is a very big faction or that this faction is on it's home turf.

2D6	Faction
2	Lord of the Bats (hooded man going to cribs to nourish his bats with eyes of kids)
3	Ghost carnival (only at night – move from cemetery to cemetery while singing)
4	Zoog (wererats – transform into giant anthropomorphic rats when underground)
5	Sons of the Piper (poor, working class looking, plague lovers) (Details here)
6	Catacomb Runners (street children) (Details here)
7	Hospitaller Order of Dunwich (Priests wearing swords and pistol) (Details here)
8	Nulla Corvi (doctors wearing raven-masks) (Details here)
9	Bow Street Runners (police force wearing civilian clothes) (Details here)
10	Ordo Mechanicus (augmented with metallic prosthetics) (Details here)
11	Isfet (cats – can speak but don't – pray to Bastet)
12	Snake-Oil Peddler (He might sell something useful or even arcane-ish)

I'll make a new diary entry for each of these factions.

Sources:

• Isfet & Zoog are factions in the french translation of Into the ODD and were originally published in "Everyday is Halloween"
• Bow Street Runner are historical
• Lord of the Bats is an adaptation of the "Ombre-corbeaux" from Into the Evil (part of the french ITO kickstarter)
• Hospitaller Order of Dunwich is an historical reference mixed with lovecraftian mythos
