Success Text[edit]

Question before the BoardSuccess Description
1 - 5, 7, 9"As long as the safety of the workers is observed," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. "We can do nothing without keeping their well-being in mind."
10The Dauntless Temperance Campaigner nods firmly. "Have you heard of the parties he holds at his townhouse?" she asks. "Not at all the moral tone we wish to set for the board."
11"One hates to see her go," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. "But I suppose she does take the side of the Masters very frequently, and I cannot help wondering whether her views are overly influenced by them."
12"By all means," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner with a shudder. "We should be able to expect consistency of our fellow board members, at the very least."
13At Sinning Jenny's name, the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner does not even need to speak. She merely raises her eyebrows eloquently.
14"We can easily dispense with his style of dispute resolution," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner austerely. "I say nothing about my other feelings on the man."
15"The deviless-Lord Mayor can go," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. "As a representative of Hell, she has no place to be directing London's affairs."
16"I believe the helmet is hiding something," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. "Or possibly three somethings. I do not enjoy being kept in suspense about the very identity of my fellow board-members. It sets an unsuitable precedent."
17"She is an extraordinary individual," […] "Odd. I often wonder whether she is honey-addled." A few days ago, the Dean of Xenotheology committed the indiscretion of trying to teach the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner to pronounce Othatharooth!
18"If I vote to let go a member of the Church […] it is only because I believe we are taking his time from more pressing matters involving his Flock," […] "And because one is […] concerned about the number of candles we get through in board meetings."
19"If I vote to let go a member of the Church […] it is only because I believe we are taking his time from more pressing matters […]" This can have nothing to do with the fact that, in a moment of agitation, Southwark referred to her as 'that old bat'.
20"His book of replies is growing a little sticky," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner.
21"I have every sympathy for a reformed criminal," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. "But the Gracious Widow is hardly reformed, and her taste for brandy is an open secret."
22"I don't know what we are supposed to believe about her identity," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner pointedly. "But she looks like a Revolutionary to me."
23"He is plainly too inexperienced […] His presence here is the result of rank favouritism on the part of one of our directors–" […] she glances pointedly at you. "But as it seems we have now recognised the error, we can rectify it with all due speed."
24"By all means, let him take his long-winded speeches somewhere else," she says. Quite as though she didn't make speeches of her own.
26"I suppose," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner reluctantly. "Ideologically, we have certain points in common. I admire her dedication to improving the sleep and mental hygiene of Londoners. But her mayoral duties must keep her very busy."
27"I have never noticed," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner crisply, "that that board member's vote made any difference at all."
28"One feels sorry for him, but I wish he would speak less frequently about Trezigor and the white tower and the marigold fields," says the […] Campaigner. "It causes a very unpleasant feeling in the pit of the stomach, and it is never at all apropos."
29The Dauntless Temperance Campaigner looks distant. "He does remind me unhappily of another Tomb Colonist I know." This is not, it seems, an endorsement.
30"I do not trust her," […] "Worse: I would describe her as a dangerous person. […] a very dangerous one. In the place of honey or spirits, she offers an addictive idea, one that will lead countless young people to destruction in the outer darkness."
31"Yes, I suppose we can let him go," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. "It seems unlikely that I will ever persuade him on the matter of port."
32"Welllll," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner, with evident reluctance. "I do occasionally wonder about her orthodoxy."
33"Good lord," […] "Is that what produces the horrible racket during every meeting?" […] Now that she is aware of it, she fervently wishes him gone, and is recommending the services of a superior Menace Eradicator. "Specialising in insectoids," […]
37"We might have been able to work together once," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. "At one time, I thought our combined efforts might be of some good against Feducci. But she chose otherwise. I won't fight for her now."
160The Dauntless Temperance Campaigner has many opinions on warming alternatives to brandy – samovars of stewed tea and the like. You have the board secretary duly note down her suggestions.
170The Dauntless Temperance Campaigner is brisk. "Of course. There is no point in debating it." She has an oddly excitable air, though, despite her indifference to the matter at hand.
181"They must be given land somewhere," agrees the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner; "and if they're in Ealing, we can keep an eye on them."
182"That's the ticket," agrees the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. "It's a well-regulated part of the hinterlands – as much as anywhere can be.
183The […] Campaigner raises a handful of objections about putting so many new inhabitants so near to an old distillery. But it is clear that she has no very serious objections, beyond some vague sense that the area of Balmoral is growing overcrowded.
184The Dauntless Temperance Campaigner looks doubtful, but agrees. "I suppose the factory there is at least very well lit," she says. She makes no secret of her doubts about what exactly they are manufacturing in that factory.
185The Dauntless Temperance Campaigner cheerfully agrees to this proposition. "Won't it be a fine thing for the parish," she says.
186The Dauntless Temperance Campaigner agrees, though she looks troubled. She doesn't seem to think that's a very salubrious environment for anyone, not even such a hardened lot as the tracklayers.
187"We must hope," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner austerely, "that they will set a good example for their neighbours."
210[…] Does luxurious service imply that wine will be served? That spirits will be available in the cars? Or is it […] a question of providing suitable seating for the elderly and the infirm? If she can be assured of the latter, then, of course...
340"The Church deserves our support, always and everywhere," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner stoutly. "How else shall we reform souls?"
400"It's only proper," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. "Otherwise, the investors are likely to become disgruntled."
500"It invites some negative comment," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. "But perhaps the public need not know."
510"Certainly," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner – startling everyone. "The Hellworm is a cleansing flame. Nothing unhygienic could survive in its path."
520 - 523, 525, 526 - 529"It is an unwise direction," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. "Some of us here were not in leading strings during the Campaign of '68, and we remember– […] I can see the board will not be deterred from building in this direction."
700"If we are called to vote on such a matter," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner, "then I have no objection. The candidate has proven himself loyal. I would merely suggest that the distillery be put to a new and more morally suitable use."
710"With the gravest doubts," says the […] Campaigner, regarding the image of September with distaste. "He gives the appearance of already being very much drunk, but I suppose I must accept the assurances of my fellow board members that he is merely odd."
720"If we are called to vote on such a matter," […] "then I have no objection. The candidate has proven herself energetic and of a reforming disposition. I would merely suggest that the distillery be put to a new and more morally suitable use."
800"With the greatest hesitation," says the […] Temperance Campaigner emphatically. "We have heard unsatisfactory reports of how he spends his pay. The example he will set for his workers is not to be thought of. But it seems we have few alternatives."
850"I have doubts," admits the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. "But I know the alternatives for the role are hardly clean-living individuals."
905"As good as any other," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner.
910"It isn't for me to read the Bishop his catechism," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner, thus agreeing while casting some unexplained shade on the question of Fiacre's theological soundness.
931"Best to get things back on a normal basis of operations," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. "Furnace is a known quantity."
932"If the approach is well-regulated, I have no objection to a scientific solution." Her notion of 'well-regulated' proves to involve very wholesome feed for all the animals, and calisthenic exercises for their keepers.
933"Well-lit spaces are less conducive to criminal activity," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. "And everyone knows that gin is consumed in the dark."
934"Yes, yes," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. "We shouldn't be so far behindhand with our operations."
940"For charity," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. "It isn't the arrangement I would have made myself, but I suppose we must support one another's endeavours..." Did she get enough sleep? She sounds confused.
941"In the name of Hygiene," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. "We cannot expect people to live cleanly if not properly supplied." It sounds as though she expects most of the donation to take the form of soap and castor oil.
1000 - 1010"We should do whatever is needed to remove the Tower from our horizon," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. She speaks about it as though she were planning the eradication of a spider-council from her basement.
1020"We should do whatever is needed to remove the Tower from our horizon," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. "I may have some doubts about the motives behind this suggestion, but... if it will work, I will vote for it."
1100"In defence of what is right, we should not turn back even at the borders of Parabola," says the […] Campaigner. "I abhor honey-dreams and all they signify, but if we can put an end to their addictive grip upon London's vulnerable young persons..."
1110"As long as the gate into Parabola can be entirely sealed afterwards," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner.
1200"Perhaps the city will be a good influence on London," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. "They won't have set up their own distilleries yet."

Failure Text[edit]

Question before the BoardFailure Description
10Somewhat surprisingly, the […] Campaigner opposes the idea. "His Society connections are of great value," […] "I cannot approve his way of life, but perhaps we may observe a strict separation between his board duties and his social influence.
11[…] She has the deepest respect for the Efficient Commissioner: her keen dedication, her unwavering devotion to duty, and the extremely neat handwriting with which she manages her paperwork. The […] Campaigner […] would regret her loss extremely.
12"A frequent change of membership shows a somewhat incoherent plan for the board," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. "We ought at least to attempt to work as a collective."
13"If one is very fair to Ms Jenny," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner, "one would acknowledge that she is kind to urchins." She is plainly suppressing, painfully, all her thoughts about a person who wears red stockings to board meetings.
14"Oh, no," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. "If I vote against him, everyone will say I am holding a grudge." Their Mayoral contest is now long in the past, but it's obvious the Campaigner has not let it go.
16"She has her workers' interests in mind," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. "A genuine article. I don't want to lose her."
17"It is true she can be a little off-putting," […] She attempted […] to offer the Dean a hint on respectable hairstyles for older ladies, and the Dean's response was other than complimentary. "But I cannot see that there is any real harm in her."
18 - 19"A Bishop should be an excellent influence and moral guide," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. "I would rather keep him."
20"Is it proper to vote him off?" she wonders aloud. "He did invest substantially in the company, after all, and one feels that we have some obligation to consider his views."
26"But then who will headbutt us during long meetings and demand to be scritched?" […] The Viscountess sometimes sits on the Campaigner's lap […] and they both pretend this is entirely ordinary. The Viscountess hisses if anyone else dares laugh […]
31"But he has such a pleasantly dry sense of humour," complains the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner.
160The Dauntless Temperance Campaigner is unmoved. "Cold and distant, you say? The kind of place that leads men to drink, I would imagine."
170"Oh, no!" says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner, though not very convincingly.
181"Isn't there some risk of them displacing the Rubbery Men in the vicinity?" asks the […] Campaigner, concerned. "I think we ought to find them a place where there is more room to expand their operations without causing inconvenience to anyone else."
182"I don't think much of the drainage in that area," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. "It spreads Contagion and Disease."
183"Aren't there enough people already living near the castle?" asks the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. "Individuals of a somewhat unsavoury moral character? We would not want the new town to become a haven for smuggling and crime."
184"Only consider […] the […] potions and potations that come out of Station VIII. Now imagine a set of hardened, hard-drinking individuals with ready access to crates of those substances. There is such a thing as putting people in temptation's way […]
186"I know that some members of the board would rather not give the tracklayers anything of substance," remarks the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. "But this carries things too far. You might as well ask them to banish themselves to Nowhere."
187"Do we want them all the way out there?" demands the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner skeptically. "Hell will have their souls off them in half a shake of a lamb's tail."
210'Luxury', it seems, appears in the Campaigner's lexicon next to 'debauchery'. She will hear none of it.
340"One always supports the Church, of course," she says. "But is it really proper for us to meddle in their affairs? Would they welcome us erecting chapels without proper oversight?"
400"If the financial position of the company were better, then I would certainly consent. But we must conduct our affairs in a disciplined fashion."
500"My concern is that, by bringing passengers into Parabola, we might seem to condone honey-sipping," she confides. "Whatever the practical advantages to us, we have to consider the moral impact on London."
510"I doubt whether the Tracklayers are trained to wrangle a Hellworm," […] She proves, in fact, to have an unexpected familiarity with the anatomy and disposition of Hellworms […] thanks to a lifelong membership at Sophia's.
520 - 523, 527 - 529"It is an unwise direction," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. "Those of us who remember '68 will be in no haste to see any of its ruins. There are too many of its victims still to be found in London."
700 - 720"This, I feel, is not a matter for us. It is a concern of Her Enduring Majesty."
800"I have investigated this person," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. "He frequents public houses! The majority of his pay is spent on lager, and possibly on stronger drink! Is this what we expect from the leader of the Union?"
850"I have attempted to ascertain the details of Cornelius' lifestyle […] I requested a report from the Tomb Colonies. Very little came back. […] a rumour regarding Cornelius and a loose-living deviless. I think we cannot conclude he is right-living enough […]"
905"In my day," remarks the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner – implying that that was quite a long time ago – "there was no corporate board that would have presumed to meddle in ecclesiastical affairs."
931, 933 - 934"There are better ways that involve fewer concessions," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner fiercely.
932The Dauntless Temperance Campaigner suggests that the entire concept must have been proposed by someone who'd been at the tipple.
940"I have questions," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner, settling her spectacles more precisely at the end of her nose and preparing to review the books in detail. It doesn't sound as though this measure is likely to pass any time soon.
941"The need exists," says the Dauntless Temperance Campaigner. "But can we be sure that the funds will be properly distributed?"
1000The Campaigner frowns. "I question the application of funds," she says. "Mightn't they be better spent in some other pursuit?"
1010The Campaigner frowns. "I am not sure about this approach. Can we rely on the Tower to do as it says? We have its promise as translated by a deviless! Who very likely drinks! I have seen devilesses smoking cheroots!"
1020[…] "This sounds like a most irregular attempt to resolve the matter," she says. "The mere fact that the proposal was drawn up in secret, and by a subset of the board, without the consultation of the rest of us... the lack of transparency is concerning."
1030The Campaigner frowns. "I am not sure about the wording in the second article, third codicil," she says. "Perhaps we could review it again. I don't care to vote on anything I do not perfectly understand." Wiki note: Retired
1100, 1110"Is it wise to go voluntarily into the realm of honey-dreams?" she demands rhetorically.
1200"If it's a healthy place to go, then it will be healthier yet if people must walk to get there. And if it isn't, we should not encourage them."
