So who is the Secret Nazi in this scenario?

Cio?
Here's where I realize this is the wrong tab I posted in, whoops.

And really, it's Alison. Consorting with someone of immense eldritch power and probably going to betray the team and gently caress everything up.

Hello, Creature! Do You Despise Goat Hating Fascists? So Do We! Join Us at Paradise Lost!


So, this is only very tangentially related to K6BD, but over in TG's Game Room, i'm trying to start up a discord game of Exalted. For the uninitiated, Exalted is a pen and paper game about playing the returned heroes of the sun, reclaim your right as kings of all creation, beat up gods that get in your way and do a shitton of kung fu and awesome heroics and binding spirits and demons and various other wierd fantasy poo poo. While the setting is very different from K6BD, as you can probably hear, a lot of the themes and aesthetics are fairly similar, though the power scale and poo poo is a bit different. Exalted's not the most welcoming game to new players, but this game is explicitly welcoming to new players and set up to help new players get into the game. The game is only going to be about 5-10 sessions long, and will take place during the wierdest part of the setting's calender for maximum cool poo poo and kung fu. So far one person has already apped an aunty maya type character. Any way, i thought some of you might be interested in it, and just in case i'm right, here's the link:

I can't commit to any live games, but if you ever start a PbP hit me up. I've always wanted to try Exalted.

So while we're waiting for the update I've been going over the current arc in my head. Cio shows all the signs of relapsing but I think it's actually going to be Cio who ends up realising what's happening to Allison and pull her back. Allison has tasted the power of the goblin king and is aggressively heading towards Cio's demon state from when she stole the key.

Cio will save herself and Allison.

I really don't feel like either of them are going to come out of this as morally clean as you suggest. The path her and Cio's character development seems to be on is really fascinating to me, and being able to simply step back some of their growth like so, for no real reason, is like the opposite of my takeaway of k6bd's themes.

I've long been fascinated with how the alt-right develops elaborate and obscure dog whistles to try to communicate their meaning without having to say it out loud
Stepan Andreyevich Bandera being the most prominent example of that
He probably does. Just not in that room.

I don't remember if there's a mimic but it does have several creatures in that vein - there's a gelatinous cube masquerading as murky water in a tub, a set of animated wall decorations, and a mutant four-armed gargoyle that looks identical to a four-armed statue seen earlier in the dungeon.

Is that the one that has a bunch of zombies in plate armor designed to look like iron golems, or was that Rappun Athuk?
