Carolyn Lecter and Peter Starling in The Silence of the Mi-G

_"But Ms. Fern . . ."

"It's 'Doctor Fern', Peter. We mustn't forget our manners no matter how bad things get."

"I'm sorry Doctor Fern. But . . . do you have to do that to them? They seem so . . . helpless."

"Yes Peter, I do. I've told you that before. When you see their blood then the fear will be gone. Don't you remember?"

"I do Doctor Fern. But the shrieking. The horrible shrieking!"

"Yes Peter. And when their bleeding stops so will the shrieking. The mi-go will finally be quiet."_

The Meat Cleaver seems almost custom made for Carolyn Fern. And of course, she needs her student "volunteer", Peter Sylvestre along for the ride. Steadfast is almost guaranteed to provide the full 3 Fight boost. Anatomical Diagrams is another near guarantee for dealing with the toughest non-elite monsters. True Grit is there since she will certainly have to handle a bit more damage joining the other Guardians in combat. Prepared for the Worst helps to get the Meat Cleaver into play. Physical Training is there for boosts Keen Eye is available. The rest are there to fuel resource generation from her special ability to heal horror, except for the Fine Clothes which are just to keep up appearances as a doctor.

Upgrades Keen Eye has to be first so she can get to work chopping as soon as possible. Stick to the Plan, though expensive, is a near mandatory second. Peter Sylvestre comes in third for the +1 Will and Sanity soak. After that things are more open. Kerosene adds more healing to fuel more resource generation. Vicious Blow adds more damage to get healing from the Meat Cleaver faster.

Variant - Gun Moll If unsanctioned experimental cranial surgery is not enough for you, Carolyn can also use the .45 Thompson for extra mayhem. In this case, Stick to the Plan will be even more important as an upgrade, as you will want some Extra Ammunition and Custom Ammunition to be able to shoot everything that moves. You will also want to replace the Fine Clothes with a Bandolier and upgrade that as soon as possible for a Bandolier.
