Ladies and Gentlemen, this is The Council. It is an incredible narrative driven game, with an engrossing story and unique RPG elements. This is an episodic game, and we are playing Episode One: The Mad Ones.

In Part 2 of our let's play series we enter Lord Mortimer's manor, a massive mansion on a rocky, mountainous island off the coast of England. We have our first confrontation with Cardinal Piaggi, and must convince him to entrust us with a letter.

As Part 2 continues we explore the main hall of the mansion and the amazing collection of paintings and sculptures before making our way to the fireplace. There we meet Duchess Emily again and the President of the United States, George Washington. We also meet Sir Gregory Holm who had appeared to Louis in the vision from Part 1. Shortly after we are presented with an important choice: stay by the fire and chat with Washington about Louis' mother, or investigate the vision and follow Sir Holm.

Your choices matter in this game, more than any story driven game I have played. You must make decisions that have a dramatic effect on the plot, and the game gives you the opportunity to build a character with unique skills, talents, and traits. I really enjoyed the experience and will be playing the next episode as soon as it is released!

►The Council begins in 1793, with players taking the role of secret society member Louis de Richet after his invitation to a private island off the shores of England by the enigmatic Lord Mortimer. ►Joining him are a number of high profile guests, including Napoleon Bonaparte and President of the newly-formed United States of America, George Washington.
►The strange nature of this private reception goes beyond just the prestigious guests –Richet’s own mother has recently gone missing on the island, while each and every one of the colorful cast seems to have their own hidden agendas.

►In a new twist for the genre, the core of The Council’s gameplay comes from manipulating and maneuvering through character encounters using the unique Social Influence system. During confrontations, skills and limited resources can be used to gain the upper hand and achieve the desired outcome.
►Players will be rewarded for their knowledge of each character’s psychological vulnerabilities and immunities, as well as their preparations made during prior exploration and investigation. 
►Failing an encounter does not mean ‘game over’, and no action can be taken back. The consequences are permanent, and may result in persistent physical disfigurements or mental traits that help or hinder the rest of the player’s adventure.

►Richet’s numerous skills can be developed to align with your chosen approach to the adventure. Solve issues with diplomacy, delve into occultism to expand your historical and scientific knowledge, or play detective and see what others do not perceive. 
►Your skills will have uses that extend far beyond your conversations with fellow guests. With 15 diverse skills to use and invest in, players are free to uncover The Council’s mysteries how they see fit, with wildly varying consequences depending on their methods.
►The results will forever alter the life of Louis de Richet, of those around him, and shape history as we know it.
