From: Ten of Teeth: The Mob

No Londoner over five and a half feet tall would admit that the movements of urchins influences their behaviour. But when you see a pack of them barreling over to you with ill intent, you cross the street.

Game Instructions: This will give you some progress; the Poison Tolerance of your Target will reduce it more than other branches.
