12 Days of Mr Sacks (Guide)

The 12 Days of Mr. Sacks is a yearly recurring event that happens during late December and early January. It begins on 25 December and as long as you begin the storyline before the 6th of January, you can always finish it. It used to occur through cards, but since 1899 (2021) they have changed to pinned storylets.
Mr Sacks' visits may be a source of the otherwise rare or expensive Connected: The Masters of the Bazaar, as well as the useful seasonal quality Putting the Pieces Together: the Taste of Lacre (ToL). Since players may navigate each day only once, it is not possible to get every reward in a single year.
- Uncapped ToL may be obtained from Day 2, Day 5 (For those associated with The Celestials), Day 8, Day 11 (only for Notaries and Doctors), and Day 12, for a total of +5.
- Connected: The Masters may be obtained from Day 1, Day 2, Day 3, Day 5, Day 6, Day 7 (1-2 CP for Bazaarines), Day 11*, and Day 12 (3 CP), for a total of +10-11.
*This option is not available to Tier 3 Professionals, such as Correspondents or Monster-Hunters.
Note that Days 5, 11, and 12 require choosing between ToL and Connected: The Masters. Those wishing to maximise their Taste of Lacre are recommended to align with the Celestials and sign on to become Notaries; all other costs and requirements are generally not as difficult to arrange.
Investigating the Twelve Days of Mr Sacks[edit]
Fate options exist to investigate Mr Sacks with a chosen Faction. These may be selected on Day 4. Note that playing these options in later days prevents players from receiving the other possible rewards from the visit, although they are generally otherwise profitable:
| Faction | Fate cost | Final Reward | Days |
|---|---|---|---|
| Benthic | 8 | 
|
5, 9, 12 |
| Bohemians | 8 | 
|
7, 12 |

Opportunities for hard-to-increase qualities[edit]
On certain days out of the 12 there are options which can be used to increase some usually hard to raise qualities. The highlighted options are often (but not always) mutually exclusive - i.e. you normally can't pick an option which increases all of these on a single Day. Also note that each choice also has its own costs and unlock requirements, specified later in this guide.
This table only shows non-FATE options. Some FATE options can also give these qualities.

Day 1: A Peevish Visit from Mr Sacks?[edit]
This first day allows you to gain one CP of Connected: The Masters in exchange for either one bottle of Greyfields '68 or 100 Drops of Prisoner's Honey. The option to trade a Pail for a level of Putting the Pieces Together: the Taste of Lacre is not worth it given its low cap.

Another bottle of Greyfields '68 will give both a CP of Connected: The Masters and a level of ToL, both uncapped.

Day 7: Mr Sacks, in embered red[edit]
You may obtain one point of Connected: The Masters for free if you profess London to be peaceable; if you are willing to lose a Revolutionary and Docks favour, it is possible to also obtain a Favour in High Places at the same time. Bazaarines have a more forceful version of this latter option, losing 3 Revolutionaries favours and 1 Docks favour in exchange for 10E, a Favour in High Places, and 1 CP of Connected: The Masters. Note that having the favours is not a prerequisite for selecting the option, so they are not costs per se. If you are investigating on behalf of Bohemians, Tomb-Colonists or Urchins, you have an option today.
