MMP is easier and it binds the ghouls to us more and makes them more useful minions.

- Crossover Fantasy
Eventually we are going to break down and just start a cult.

I thought that was what we were doing? A cult is the most flexible and useful minions structure.
Nobody here knows anything about what an anima banner means.
Hell no.
Construction work is NOT unskilled labor. Especially not construction work with machinery. Construction sites can be dangerous even for trained personnel. We have no use for untrained ghouls on this worksite, and dont have the time or inclination to do vocational training. Especially given the non-zero chance there are going to be legally underage sapients there.
Perimeter security sure, especially when we are not here.
But construction? Nah.
Molly was raised Catholic. Her father's a paladin. She's literally had messages from angels.
Nothing about spells interested in setting up a cult. A cult might well happen anyway even against her will, but she isnt going to have a hand in its setup.

They could help with the first parts. Cleaning away the ruble and the like. First part of any construction job is just getting rid of all the stuff you don't want which doesn't take much skill at all.
Underground construction site in concrete and earth.
Heavy, sometimes unstable objects and rubble. Potential electric power conduits.People who dont have even basic construction experience.
This isnt like working on a farm with hand tools. Or helping build a wood frame house.
I will repeat: randoms do not belong on a worksite.
Its only a question of time before someone walks into something they shouldnt, or destabilizes concrete on their head, or gets cut by rusty metal without a tetanus vaccination.

@DragonParadox You might want to include TLoF under Inherent Bonuses.
And that would all be valid if they were not already living down here. All of undertown is unstable and unsafe.

Sure, will add.
We also don't need them to be useful. We need them to be faithfully trying. We can fabricate some cute little bronze hardhats and orange vests of demonic fabric that glows with the fires of hell. We can give them those little wavy glowstick things and have them direct people around where we are currently working.
Undertown is hardly luxurious, but its unsafe largely because of its inhabitants, not because its collapsing. What transient hazards exist are well understood by the natives. The parts that are unstable, or have some other environmental hazard, dont have people living there. Because they would have died.
A situation where you are doing construction work, otoh, is a whole new scenario. You have rubble, you have rusty metal, you have utility cables. These people have NO experience with it. If you have 9 different people hauling and moving stuff in that environment with no training, they are all a present danger to each other.
Our goal is to keep these people out of our way.
Would be nice if we can get them to do security when Molly isnt around, or to tell us about the layout of the surrounding area.
But we do not benefit from attempting to use them as workers here. Nevermind the ethical issues.
EDIT
Seriously, just google mole people

Butcher didnt come up with the concept out of nowhere.
A lot of US major cities, from New York to Las Vegas, have a subterrranean population of homeless people living in disused tunnels underground while most of the city goes on above them.

We have been getting a lot of mileage out of Crafts. Do we know anyone skilled enough that they could train us for the 4th dot? Mostly because I have a bit of an adverse idea to ever paying full XP cost for any skill.
Does Dad have at least 4 dots?

I think in that matter your math is wrong.
If we spend one AP to get a discount of 1 or 2 XP, that's a bad deal.
Because that AP could have been spend on an adventure that gives several times more experience.

It depends on if you count time in world or out of world. An adventure takes quite a bit more updates. Also nothing stops us from having a crafting adventure when learning say.
Like
-[] The family trade, dad already works with wood, you can work with wood, getting paid by your parents isn't exactly the most glamorous thing, but it would probably go smoother with him handling all the marketing stuff so you can just use your hell tools to make stuff
It isn't the most efficient way for us to make money especially now. But if it also gets us crafting XP then it becomes fairly good.

Anyone want to try a stunt? We shouldn't need it with all our DC reductions, but stunts are cool.
Well, I made one, for all that's worth.
We really, really should do a collaborative work with her.

I disagree mostly because I regularly do construction work. Yes the site might be dangerous if we were making apartment complexes or the like, but most of the dangers of construction work disappear when you get down to small scale of 10 or less people without heavy machinery. Most the dangers are matters of coordination issues. If everyone is doing the same job instead of desperately trying to do everything in parallel to beat a deadline the issues just aren't there.
And yes we do have heavy machinery created by essance, but that isn't the same at all.

Thanks for the edits.
'Eight year old you' it just means Molly that was eight years old.

I think that it would count for MIS if we tell them to spread word about the free food and they go to do it, it would work as a sort of free trial.
What exactly were we going to offer them? I forgot.

A question - What exactly are we doing to the platform? Because as far as I am aware the deal was to fix the place up. There are a lot of meanings to that idea. Are we just cleaning it? Super easy and people helping will be super helpful. Are we trying to restore power and services? Hard, people will be unhelpful, and we end up ether shelling out money for utilities or commit crime. Are we filling the inside of the platform with beautiful art? Cool, but not sure it falls under 'fixing'.
Though I kind of want to turn our crafting excellency on making some bitchen cool wall art.
