==The Club== *'''To Save the Union (Agenda)'''<br /> ''The Club has reached a consensus intended to paper over the growing iriitabilities – wherever possible and not too much effort, Club-members will work to prevent this proposed Southern Confederacy from coming to be, or at least from becoming it’s own state, or at least from allying with England. Then the whole time-paradox headache and ethical issues can be ignored.''<br /> *'''The Royalist Cause (Agenda)'''<br /> ''Ever since Queen Victoria herself exhibited a touch of Strangeness, there has been a small cadre of Kerberans who believe that she is not merely a monarch, but a divinity deserving of worship (or so close to divine as to be indistinguishable from it). This view is rarely given voice for the sake of maintaining comity within the Club, but those who do espouse it have powerful allies within Her Majesty's Government.<br /> *'''Find the Missing Shogun (Agenda)<br /> ''Tokugawa Kaneda, rightful representative of the Tokugawa Shogunate in Japan, remains missing. Since disappearing in the Bermuda Triangle, his whereabouts remain completely unknown. His ship has not been recovered. It is unknown whether he is alive or dead. Elizabeth has let it be known that there will be significant rewards for any who can confirm his death, yet more significant rewards for anyone who can find him alive. For those uninterested in money, it remains critically true that his reappearance may be able to unite Japan to peace, or plunge it into deeper international war.<br /> *'''The Chrono-Tuner (Strange)'''<br /> ''It holds to reason that time-travel leaves its mark, even if the time machine is destroyed. The room where Crow first arrived continues to hum with a strange melodic frequency, and some say that at night, they see strange shapes moving in the shadows. One elderly gentlemen swears he saw a dinosaur being ridden by a Mongul charge out from the room, glance around and charge back in…''<br /> *'''The Forbidden Reliquary (Strange)'''<br /> ''The Kerberos Club has a (not undeserved) reputation for imprudence; neighbors have lost count of the occasions when some member of the Club or other has caused damage (physical, mental or spiritual) to the people and buildings nearby. But some objects prove too Strange, too dangerous, too wild even by the Kerberans' standards; by common consent, these are locked away in a sub-sub-sub basement, protected by safeguards magical and technological. These formidable defenses have not always deterred the curious from trying to gain access to the Reliquary; they have, so far as anyone knowns, always proven effective.''<br /> *'''At Least They´re *Our* Monsters (Public)'''<br /> ''Though still looked upon as oddities and outsiders, the Kerberos Club has never the less acted as protectors of the people of the British Empire on several occasions. Since most of their work has been done in the lower stratas of society - such as fighting the Fey exiles of the Faceless Legion in the old sewers - they have gotten an almost incidental reputation of standing up for the poor and the have-nothings. While this has made them into strage sorts of celebrities among the underclasses, it has raised some suspicions in the saloons... and in some very secret offices.<br /> *'''A House Full of Heresy (Public)'''<br /> ''While the Club may enjoy a positive reputation among the underclasses, the more orthodox strata of society take a decidedly dimmer view of the Kerberos Club. With the Oxford Movement at the head, the right-thinking bourgeoisie rarely miss an opportunity to blame this or that misfortune on the corrupting influence of the Kerberans.''<br /> *'''The Open Day (Public)<br /> ''The Club sets its own responsibilities and agendas, but it is unsurprising, given its remarkedness, that upon occassion it is critical for members of the general populace to make requests, seek assistance, demand reparations or sample the marvels of the Kerberos Club. Every 60 days, the Club hold an open day, where its members interact with the public and entertain visitors in the clubrooms. Traditionally, no accord is given to rank or wealth, but people are met either on the priority of their requirements or a first-come first serve basis.
