Can anyone explain how a Shattered Sister acts as part of the opposition, or point out any Actual Plays where it occurs? Because it seems pretty fundamental to the game but isn’t covered in the existing beta materials, and I’d like to implement it the ‘right’ way on my demo run.

Hey Anon!
The Shattered sisters have some guidance on their sheets, but they act as co-GMs with the Groundskeeper by describing horror when asked. Here’s an example:
The Bride is investigating an infirmary, and encountered a woman holding a pair of scissors who told them she wants to make them more beautiful. The Witch shattered earlier in the game. The Virgin just rolled a 4 on caress a horror.
Sarah, the Groundskeeper, turns to the Witch. “What does the woman do next?”
“She raises her scissors, and they’re rusty but very sharp,” the Witch says. “When she smiles, you see that her face is covered in stitches, and they start to tear from the movement.”
“Yes,” Sarah says. “And she takes a step closer, and you smell this sort of sickly sweetness…”
I’ll stop the example there so people don’t get too squicked out, but does that help you visualize how the Shatter Sisters work?
