So, I was curious about this- I've recently started GMing a game of Apocalypse World for my family, and we've just cleared the first session. I'm at the point now where I'm making all the NPCs who were introduced into threats- only there's a bit of an issue!
A brother and sister, Spoon and Fork. They're part of a cult. But, thing is, they're also in another group of brutes- I don't think that it was ever addressed (at least as far as I've seen, if it's in the book and I missed it then sorry for this, of course!) but what should I do in this situation? Can they be in more than one threat at the same time, or should I just pick to stick them in one and not the other?
I think the way I would naturally do it is just to go, "okay, yeah, they're in both threats. Maybe even in different fronts, if it applies. That just means they've got some conflict of interest, if they've got to choose between one or the other- cool." But I'm not sure if that would work mechanically speaking, so I figured I'd get a second opinion from people who've been doing this longer than I have.
