Well, technically speaking, you have just caused a breakDOWN; you've just killed a woman in a horrific manner because your subject wouldn't select two names from a list of people that you could use to further torture her with. Mrs. Cartier is currently a pool of viscous goo and gruesome bones upon the floor in the White Room, where you have the subject. She's screaming her head off, silly thing, and finally realizing she not only has no control, but that there is nothing you won't do to prove your points.
Unfortunately, the poor girl's breakdown isn't in the manner you need it to be – her stress levels are going to skyrocket quickly, but in this particular instance they're skyrocketing for the wrong reasons. True, you need them to be higher, but you also need them to reach the limits due to her giving in or breaking her willfulness, not because you terrified her. Still, higher stress levels means it might be easier to achieve that 100% mark without too much more effort. On the other hand, too high and you might accidentally breach the 100% mark through incidental stress rather than purposeful stress.
You are Sir, and this is a moment where you can make or break the entire process of making a new slave ready to be properly....educated.
[] Let her stress out for another moment, and see which direction her psyche takes this. [] Sedate her now, you can use her friends to break her further. [] Go in and resolve the name list now – it might take some effort to get her attention though. [] Add a little something more to her atmosphere to help make her more pliant now.
You awaken from an oddly restful sleep and moan a little as you stretch yourself out upon the bed. After a bit of bleary tossing about, you pry open your eyes and look around. ? It's... strange... Your room is the same as it always was - a monochrome and utilitarian place to cry and sleep. But still... It looks... 'different' somehow. As though the items were just a little different from their normal position and the colors shifted to just a slightly different hue. You can't quite put your finger on it, but it just looks... ... ... 'different'. You pull yourself up and suddenly realize that you fell asleep without preparing at all, so you're still in your school uniform. Which is covered with small maroon flecks of Saki's blood. Suddenly it all flashes back to you, how you killed her and fled... How you staggered back here... And then... And then... "Ehehehe..." You giggle softly. And then you 'woke up'. Thankfully, looking in the mirror you realize that no one would have noticed the bloodstains unless they were uncomfortably close. Still, it was very sloppy of you to just continue wearing them. Mentally tut-tutting yourself, you quickly strip and change into a backup uniform, stuffing your bloody clothes into a spare pillowcase. You... should go burn these. But should you stop by to see Lilly first? Checking the clock, you find it's still early morning. You have time to have a small chat with her if you need to reassure yourself. After all, if anybody had noticed the blood, it's kind of doubtful they'd have just let you have a restful night before calling it in. Or you could search your room to see what you might see differently? It's tugging at your mind... As though there was something you've forgotten. Or should you just get on it and burn your bloody clothes? Decisions, decisions...
>Stability: 0 [] Investigate your room. [] Go see Lilly. [] Go dispose of your bloody clothes.
So. Today BlackHatMatt is going to make an RPG.net thread to answer questions about Beast. He's only going to listen to anyone who has complaints that are "in good faith", though. Rich suggests that there's still time to make changes to Beast. http://theonyxpath.com/things-that-go-bump-monday-meeting-notes/
So, what do we feel are changes that should be made? Reasonable changes that could viably tweak the fluff to bring the themes together in a way that doesn't have you playing sociopaths who the line developer treats as woobies fighting back against MRAs even though the MRA stand ins were made into monsters by the woobies using abuse tactics against them? Is it possible to save the game, or would it need too-extensive rewrites?

I keep them filtered, I don't look at them, look for them, or go after them.
Today I read RubyQuest for the first time. It was a masterpiece of collaborative storytelling, and I'm floored at the way a simple artstyle with a simple premise evolved into the incredible adventure that it did.
Weaver, if you're out there, thank you for creating this. /tg/, those of you that participated in this, thank you for archiving and maintaining this work.
