Hey all,
A bit of back story, My players hate "Roger Porter". I mean they absolutely loathe him and remind me of this at least once a session. They know that Roger Porter was at the Consulate when Nilasa died, They know he was probably the one who shot her, and they know he was pursuing the Doctor. They assume he is a master of disguise as no one they talked to could give a great description of him other than he's average looking.
They have been to Macbannin's once and came face to face with Cillian Creed but i'm not sure i played it right. i never shown his portrait or brought any attention to him. They only know him as the head butler of the Macbannin estate.
Now here's where my thoughts come in. They will be either going to the top of Cauldron Hill or they will be reaching the Old Church and the Doctor next session and will come face to face with Creed in battle. I want the reveal to be epic of who he is. I want them to see the Shadow Man and immediately think of Roger Porter. I think they would want to see the downfall of Creed before they would want the downfall of Macbannin (He isn't even on the radar yet).
There is also the smell of burnt engine grease. I assume that is just his blood? The smell wouldn't follow him as he is the Butler Cillian Creed would it?
Please help me brain storm ideas on how and when to best reveal that this shadow man / roger porter is in fact Cillian Creed and they have met him before.
Also as an ex RHC overseas operative, would he have ever come in contact with a Yerasol Veterain before?
