[DitV] Three-Streams Valley

I strongly recommend that for a first town with new Dogs players, you go all the way to hate and murder.

Before the Dogs have arrived, or during the course of the game? I can easily have this situation have resulted in shootings across Deep Canyon Stream, but figured with people already drowned due to demonic attacks, and flatlanders ready to go a-raiding into the hills (quite possibly while Dogs are travelling from one area to another, as it'll be a bit of a ride) that was probably enough death going around.

I wish to avoid issues involving sex, romance and marriage for this first game.

Well, there's a resolution that didn't last through character creation. Ah, I love these guys. One gave me a convert dog whose mother was a whore and who had been sexually abused in childhood. Another wound up beating up his father. And these things were in the accomplishment conflicts.

We didn't even get to the meat of Three-Streams Valley. By the time we were done with character creation, we didn't have a huge amount of time. They've met a few of the townsfolk, but only have enough information to say, "Ya know, there's stuff they're not telling us." (So there's still time to ramp up the sins of Three-Streams if I care to - though I'm not sure I'll change it, because the only reason they aren't at the Hate & Murder stage is opportunity. The emotions are there, and that's what seems to matter for the purpose of getting conflict.)

More another time, if anyone is interested. It's late now, and bed beckons.
