Early on, Henry and his companions will encounter Captain Thomas en route to the castle. Your goal: convince Thomas you're carrying a message for von Bergow.
Your initial introduction offers these dialogue choices:
Dialogue Option | Playstyle | Description |
---|---|---|
“I’m a soldier and Lord Capon’s bodyguard.” | Soldier | A combat-focused approach, favoring strength and aggression. |
“I’m an adviser to a nobleman and an envoy.” | Adviser | A diplomatic approach, emphasizing persuasion and charisma. |
“I’m the scout of our company.” | Scout | A stealth-oriented approach, prioritizing subtlety and evasion. |
The initial choice affects starting stats and playstyle. However, choosing "Adviser" is beneficial, boosting Persuasion and Charisma, valuable skills throughout the game.
Subsequent dialogue with Captain Thomas requires consistency. If you chose "Adviser," maintain that persona. Sticking to your story will convince Thomas.
Even if you deviate, Hans will usually intervene, ensuring the story progresses normally.
