Combat Encounters

	Opponent	Encounter Text	Notes
	STAINED GLASS MESSENGER	You hear the sound of breaking glass and turn to see a winged form pulling itself from one of the windows. As the last colorful pieces fall from it like drops of blood, it raises its two-dimensional spear towards you.
	UNFORGIVEN HANDS	With a distant wailing, smoke begins to boil from the ceiling of the cathedral. Massive hands reach down, trying to drag you into their smothering grip.	Only before defeating them or otherwise dealing with Sofia's problems; Only if you don't have rosary equipped?
	UNWASHED MAN	"You!" Several churchgoers glance to see the source of the voice, the man you gave some Eclipse to. His finger is extended towards you like he's pronouncing judgement. "I can see you now! Why'd you think you can escape? You can't escape?"	After giving the Church Refugee a handful of Eclipse
	UNWASHED MAN	"You!" Several churchgoers glance to see the source of the voice, a man in shabby clothes extending a finger towards you. "They warned me about you. The light, that glorious light." He stops and looks into space, peering at the dimly lit stained glass. "I won't let you stop it!"	After giving the Church Refugee a crate of Eclipse, with Ocean Eyes
	UNWASHED MAN	"You!" Several churchgoers glance to see the source of the voice, a man in shabby clothes extending a finger towards you. "They warned me about you. The music, the beautiful music." He stops and looks into space, peering at the dimly lit stained glass. "I won't let you stop it!"	After giving the Church Refugee a crate of Eclipse, with Fae Eyes (Morality 0), even for killing; no raise in alert
	MIDGARD SECURITY EXPERT	A woman wearing a Midgard Security uniform approaches you with purpose. Either she recognizes you or she's mistaken you for someone else she also has to take down. Either way, it doesn't look like she's interested in talking.	If you lunged for the Young Priest or Professionally Dressed Man (win or lose) or killed the sleeping Church Refugee, today
	FAMILY WOMAN	A well-dressed woman approaches you between the pews, drawing a pistol in one practiced motion. However, her hands seem to be shaking, the first bullet burying itself in the cathedral's stone. After that first she calms herself, but seems no less intent on your demise.	If you killed the Family Man and haven't killed her
	FAMILY MAN	Although he's dressed basically like an office worker, the man approaching you with a drawn gun seems resigned to his fate, as though he's obligated to kill you even though it won't fix anything.	If you killed the Family Woman and haven't killed him
	FAMILY WOMAN	A well-dressed woman screams in fury as she rushes towards you between the pews, drawing a pistol in one practiced motion. However, her hands seem to be shaking, the first bullet burying itself in the cathedral's stone. After that first she calms herself, but seems no less intent on your demise.	If you attacked Sofia and haven't killed her
	FAMILY MAN	It's hard to be too surprised by the approach of the man or even shocked by the gun in his hand.	If you attacked Sofia and haven't killed him
