From Fallen London Wiki (Staging)

[[File:Saturninegent.png|thumb]]You've had a tip-off about a gang of Spirifers working around St Nathanael's Hospital. Spirifers prey on the almost dead, those unfortunates with a slippery grip on their souls. In Fallen London, where one can be almost dead indefinitely, spirifers do a roaring trade.

Before the night is out, a spirifer comes to call at their bedsides. He is an unnerving sight; eyes like yellow diamonds, a mouth like a slash in a rubber sheet, and the most unnaturally enormous hat. He leans over a bedside, and with a device like a brass tuning fork, gently winds the soul from an invalid's mouth. It is a simple matter to follow him home. A quick tap on the back of the head with your trusty knoblolly and he falls stunned. You resist the urge to murder him and help yourself to his stock instead. <pre class="flTruncateEnd" style="display: none"></pre> *{{I|Watchful}} '''[[Watchful]]''' is increasing... *{{Gain|Soul|28 x}} </div> </div> <div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="width:100%> ===Failure=== <div class="mw-collapsible-content"> '''A curse upon tilers and gutterers!'''

He is an unnerving sight; eyes like yellow diamonds, a mouth like a slash in a rubber sheet, and the most unnaturally enormous hat. Fortunately, he's not expecting trouble. A quick tap on the head and he's out like a light. The hat, it turns out, is where he hides his stolen souls. You feel bad about helping yourself, but these souls will be better off at the Bazaar than in Hell. <pre class="flTruncateEnd" style="display: none"></pre> *{{I|Shadowy}} '''[[Shadowy]]''' is increasing... *{{Gain|Soul|28 x}} </div> </div> <div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="width:100%> ===Failure=== <div class="mw-collapsible-content"> '''"You don't look very ill to me, [gendertitle]..."'''
