So Castle and Beckett have been tossing around ideas for how to get further in "investigating" especially in the case of the really rich area of town, and the mun and I were brainstorming and kind of thought it would be cool for them to go "undercover" into the rich area as workers and see if they could glean any information that way.
I know Clara is working as a governess, but Castle and Beckett don't really have the kind of background to get those types of jobs so I wanted to see first off, what kind of difficulties they might encounter finding a job (or if they could lie about their experience to get positions), and what kind of positions would be available to them being outsiders.
Secondly, I wanted to know if there is a possibility of them actually being able to get any information by doing this, either in the long run or in the foreseeable future, and what kind of things would be allowed by you to implement that in game.
I know that pretty soon we'll be dealing with the murders too, and considering their background, me and the Castle mun are probably going to want to find a way to weasel into that business, too, but I definitely want to see how else we could finagle them into investigating and being involved with things.
I am fine with them going "undercover" in the rich areas. Really, the only limit concerning that area is that they can't live there. Working there is fine. People who live in Sanctuary Crescent would probably hire governesses, maids/housekeepers, gardeners, etc. They could even pose as postal workers, probably or messengers delivering packages, etc. I don't know that they'd have particular difficulties, except maybe that they're outsiders and wouldn't be trusted as much as a local? Though, the people in Sanctuary Crescent are pretty distrustful in general. The lying would probably work, though!
The part about the information is a little more difficult. I think mostly it depends on what you mean by information? They'd probably be able to access things like financial information, maybe train schedules, but anything about the origins of the town or the ~mysteries~ of it would probably be kept in a different building in an unknown part of the town (future plot?!??!?!).
The police are going to have a tip line, and it's not the fanciest place, so it'd be pretty easy to slip in and sneak info. Any ~knowable~ info (so info both released and unreleased) will be included in the body discovery post!
I hope this helped and wasn't just super confusing. <3
