I've mentioned this before, but I'd like to send Russ and Max on the quest. Mechanically, this improves intrigue and diplo, which are important, and gives a chance to increase Russ' loyalty, since quests with Doof on them are on of the best ways to do it, but I think the real benefit is the narrative.
Russ is better at diplomacy, but only thanks to Tooned In, so if he's adding it to rolls, we'll likely see that in action - and so will Max. Even if it's rather unlikely to lead to a trait directly, it's a chance to see the Toonforce used for something other than making him a joke, and in some place other than combat. I'd like for Max to learn that kind of thing for himself, as it seems likely to help his problems with being the butt of a joke, but that's something he has to decide for himself. I figure if he's along, as the Toon that triggers tooned in, he's likely to get a front row seat, so he's perfectly situated to decide for himself if this is something he'd be interested in learning. And if not, we shrug, accept his decision, and make sure not to send him on adventurous quests.
