Disguises / professions
« on: February 16, 2013, 07:45:00 pm »

As someone new to lcs the only thing that remains unclear to me is what disguises go to certain places (I know black suit or robe works in court house but that's about it) and where people of certain professions are (Like say journalists.).

if you are looking for a certain profession head to the park in the university district, anyone can appear there

as for disguises
apartments-police is the closest to a disguise
genetics/cosmetics- lab coat
nuke plant- lab coat, body armor
bank- security uniform, body armor, guard uniform
army- army body armor, seal stealth suit
gentlemens club- expensive suit, not sure if cheap suit works, but it might
ceo residence- servant uniform
garment makers- naked (not too sure about this one)

The Latte Stand is also a place anyone can show up.  If you're looking for high-powered characters, you might consider the Downtown Apartments--I tend to find Judges there fairly often.  I think Journalists are fairly common at the Club.

Naked does work at the Sweatshop: Sweatshop Workers are Naked so the LCS can pass themselves off as Workers.

Lab Coats work at the Labs & the Nuke Plant.
Black Robe works at the Courthouse, and because it's Black, it also doubles your Stealth skill whilst wearing it (makes for a cheap sneaking-suit early on).
Police Uniform works fine at the Police Department, and can be passable elsewhere--the Disguise roll is tougher as you need to pass off as a cop who has a good reason to be there.
Army Uniform does work at the MilBase, last time I checked (at one point that was bugged--fixed now.)
Cheap Suit works at the Courthouse and AM station; never tried it at the Club.
Black Suit works at the Courthouse and IntHQ, but not at the media stations.
Expensive Suit works for the media, the Courthouse, Club, CorpHQ, and CEO.
Servant Uniform ought to work at the CEO House unless Labor is C+, at which point I'd recommend Bondage Gear (he makes his Slaves wear that, IIRC.)

When in doubt, I tend to go with the Expensive Suit.

For the Prison: A GUARD UNIFORM or orange jumpsuit works best.  Must be guard, can't be security or anything like that.  Deathsquad works for nightmare mode, works about the same as police.
