God, I'm so tired. What the hell did I post last night?

So Murder is "quick and quiet" and Mayhem is "loud and messy." I can live with that given that Mayhem has other applications as well (wrecking things, causing a ruckus) while Murder is strictly, well, Murder. It seems a little fuzzy around the edges but I suppose that's by intent.

Murder is also the other "quick and quiet" option, which is to say the nonlethal takedown (at least as interpreted in our PBP, shoutouts to Gradenko). To go back to the Dishonored comparison, both the lethal and nonlethal stealth takedowns would use Murder, whereas swordfighting the guards is Mayhem.
