	The garotte
		It was reported that the spike of the garrotte pierced her neck and protruded through her mouth.
		Afterwards, as customary, her body was taken away, stripped naked (the clothes went to charity), wrapped in a bedsheet, and placed in a cheap pine coffin for burial.
		The garrotte was used in Spanish colonies, e.g.

		The character rolls Dexterity + Garrotte (difficulty of 6) to loop the garrotte around a surprised or restrained victim's neck; otherwise, the victim may roll Dexterity + Dodge (difficulty of the attacker's Dexterity + Garrotte) to avoid the attack.
		Because they do not need to breathe, Kindred do not suffer choking damage from a garrotte, though a successful attack means that the victim has been grappled and must either wound the attacker or roll Dexterity + Melee against the attacker's Dexterity + Oarrotte to break free.
		It is posible to decapitate a victim with a wire garrotte: This requires a roll of Strength + Garrotte against a difficulty of 8+ the victims's Fortitude, and may be attempted during any round where the garotte is still in place.

		Garrotte is a vicious and merciless serial killer and his targets are single woman with children.
		His role as Garrotte is quite convincing, but he lacks the emotion to present the violent scenes.
		One just doesn’t care for the actions of Garrotte, even when he shoots the corpse of his recently deceased mother.

	But She Had a Heart After All
		Flora knew just where Garrotte had gone and which of the five roads he would be using to come back, and so she had taken u a position along the main road, hiding behind a dilapidated wayside shrine that was surrounded by shrubs.
		She knew what Garrotte's car looked like, his license number, and she'd memorized all the features of his face.
		Garrotte was truly capable of living up to his nickname, but the Russians, apart from teaching him to call the longhairs "hooligans", had fattened him up like a pig, and venoms first tap made the sweat ooze from Garrotte's every pore.

		Savage's Diggins became Garrotte in 1850, named for the area's swift and harsh justice from a large Oak tree in what is now Big Oak Flat.
		Soon Garrotte was a boom town, but by the 1870's, the easy pickings were gone and Garrotte was transformed from dozens of bars and bordellos to a quiet community catering to cattle ranches and...even back then...a trickle of tourists taking the new Big Oak Flat Road to Yosemite Valley.
		In 1875, citizens changed the name of Garrotte to Groveland and soon thereafter, Groveland experienced a second gold rush with the advent of deep shaft mines and milling operations.

		Making his way through deserted corridors, he cheered himself with thoughts of Demophon and his garrotte, Demophon and hot coals, Demophon screaming in agony as he put his eyes out with his new dagger.

	Replicant
		The plot of the movie has serial killer Edward Garrotte (Van Damme), also known as “The Torch” because of his penchant for setting his victims ablaze, running wild in Seattle.
		Although I wish that the character of Garrotte (The Torch) would have been a little more developed, Van Damme also did an admirable job playing the less difficult of his two roles.
		Michael Rooker was less convincing in his role as a loose-cannon detective with a good-heart but a one-track mind.

	A Short History Of The Garrotte
		When someone says, "The garrotte is only a killing weapon..." Technically, they are correct, but they are not usually speaking of the execution device that was once used for Capital Punishment, therefore, they are incorrect in reality.
		These are "garrottes." The important thing to remember is, if someone says, "No, that’s not a garrotte, this is a garrotte..." And they are speaking in absolutes or anything other than an execution device, they’re incorrect.
		The right hand holding the other end of the garrotte is then looped over the head of the enemy in a semi-circular, counterclockwise motion and then the arms are pulled apart.

		It may affect an "ally" (as seen by the caster/target) right before that "ally" plunges a knife into the character's back (though presumably, subsequent effects based on that caster/target's perceptions would not see the knifer as an "ally").
		My guess is "no" in the same way that the character wouldn't consider someone who just stabbed him in the back an "ally." The character is reduced, the garrotte is not, and that's the end of it.
		My other unhappiness is that I am STILL inclined to say that the garrotte is not part of a character's equipment, but that is because we fundamentally disagree on the definition of equipment, so I don't think there can be much fruitful discussion there.

		Gold was discovered in these parts during the summer of 1849 and mining camps were quickly established with the on rush of 49er’s arriving by the wagon loads.
		The largest of the camps were called Garrotte (Spanish for choke) and Big Oak Flat.
		Although these camps quickly turned into boom towns by 1863 the gold was running short and a fire burned through the area destroying large parts of the towns.

		It does make sense that if the garrotte had been used in sex games, it would have been removed and thrown away, not left in place.
		It is possible that one or both Rams had been using the garrotte in sex games with JonBenet or as some type of punishment, and that they decided to leave it in place, hoping that the cops would never suspect them.
		Finally, in DOI, I was surprised at the somewhat crass manner in which John described sado-masochistic activity and sexual highs gained with a garrotte.
