I still vote for fighting the courtiers, as losing Reinhardt is really not good.

Yep yep yep. I still think Biden is going to win, but Bernie would have won by a bigger margin AND gotten the Senate for us. And to everyone who thinks Trump would have blown Bernie out in Florida, I got news for you: Florida is not a swing state anymore. It is firmly a red state. That has been obvi...

Sigh, I knew trying to contact Asiah Albudur wasn't a good idea. She is obviously corrupted to Mencius' will, and going to her was just asking for trouble. The guards are probably going to throw us into the dungeon or execute us, so I vote to fight the courtiers and try to escape.

Yeah, since Mencius has obviously corrupted Asiah Albudur to his will, I don't think she will be an ally for us. JVG still isn't properly equipped to face Mencius, so my vote is to go back to the central hub section and NOT to switch bodies, as I believe that it is a trap and that Mencius obviously ...

So the count is official 2 votes for the S&W, and 1 vote for the Ruger. I plan to get Smith & Wesson Shield EZ .380 and Vaultek Slider Series Handgun Safe to put my mind at east. Thank you guys for your help. Erik: I do have an alarm system. Security cameras and reinforced doors do not solve...

I really do not trust rulers or the authorities in foreign lands out of principle, so my vote is to simply make enquiries. No need to draw attention to ourselves if we can help it.

Hold on. I only count two crosses: One where we made further enquiries and one where we were deciding to ambush Saba or give up on him. Where did we pick up the third one?

Thanks Josh_Kablack for your answer and the video. Thaluikhain: I have basic experience with 5.56 guns, as I currently have a Kel-Tec RDB Defender. I feel that the Kel-Tec RDB Defender handles all close quarters situations in a sufficient manner, provided that I can get to it. Which is why I asked f...

Ruger LCR .38 Special +P or Smith & Wesson Shield EZ .380?

Which gun is better as a nightstand gun? Looking to get one of the two for self defense reasons. Without going into a lot of details, my safety and my legal rights have recently come under threat, and I would like to have a weapon that I can reliably shoot to stop a potential attacker who seeks to e...

My vote is to give up and try something else, as Saba clearly is not our target and I do not feel that trying to ambush an innocent magician is the correct play here. If we head back to the previous choice branch again, my vote is to go to the market and see if we can get some additional supplies.

My vote will be to check on Saba. The Rangor Tower is probably where Mencius lives, and Jamie Van Ginyu clearly does not have the equipment to deal with him now.

My vote is to continue to make enquiries, as this could be a red herring, and I feel this is a case where we should get all information possible before acting.

Since we have the option of returning to Al-Haddar at any time, my vote is to do some more searching before night falls. If we head back to the previous choice branch, my vote is to make enquires and hunt for clues, as I do not believe the authorities will necessarily be helpful, and magehunting met...

My vote is to find a storyteller, as Jamie Van Ginyu was told to find the storyteller Al-Haddar by his brother if we reached Kallamehr.

NOTE: I recently changed my vote after looking at the previous pages. Anyone saying "I agree" should double-check.

My vote is to draw a Holy Symbol, since the consensus seems to be that Mencius is still considered to be a sorcerer who is inhabiting our own body. Making inquiries to the town might alert Mencius to our presence, and training a dog takes a week for it to sniff out wizards, according to the Most Rev...

My vote is to buy 12 mirrors (the same number that we started out with), a dagger, and 2 Provisions. This will cost us 8 gp, leaving us with 2 gp, which hopefully is enough to pay a doctor to deal with our bullet wound.

My vote is to offer him a piece of jewellery. Money is far more liquid and useful in buying supplies, and we do need to thank Al-Bakbuk for teaching us the language basics.

My vote is to concentrate on acquiring some knowledge of the language, as I do not believe that Jamie Van Ginyu can competently ask for medical aid, supplies, or food without being able to properly talk to the locals. Second choice is asking for help with the bullet wound, and getting supplies is my...

First of all, Jamie Van Ginyu's Luck should be 10, not 11, as we lost a point of Luck when testing it.

Second, my vote will be to enter the town, as we gotta make a move to a town that's right for him. And we need to buy some equipment using the 10 gold pieces we have.

Jamie Van Ginyu sounds much better in my opinion. We were told that the figure rolled down the scree slope and plunged into the river, so my vote will be to follow the river downstream, until it joins hands with the sea.

Move! Move! Move! My vote will be to prepare to do just that. Switching bodies with Reinhardt's current body is a bad idea, considering that Mencius' body is wounded and Abraham Van Helsing (in Reinhardt's body) does not have any Provisions or other healing items right now. We need to begin the sea...
