Carolyn is a very strong support investigator.
Difficult choice to include Foolishness (and To Fight the Black Wind), but the +1 to all skills was necessary for the higher difficulty.
Has limited healing ability at the start as it relies heavily on Ancient Stone (4).
Never found use for Kerosene (1) - should have kept Solemn Vow instead.
Also never remembered to use Keen Eye (3), but that's mainly because I simply had too many things to keep track of (4-handed solo)


The Forgotten Age (Oddities Collaborative)

Priority for Magnifying Glass and then Peter Sylvestre.
