(D)eploy rat to spy on Kenku. With him joining Iron Dredge's army, we can get valuable info that way. Just do it without Steinhardt looking. Maybe ask him to lead the way, and when he turns around to do that, rat can follow Kenku.

Possible answers to the first question that was asked:

A) I can use the guard as protection.

B) No, I do not need his help.

C) Do you think that I should use his help?

D) Other suggestions.


Possible answers to the second question that was asked:

A) Tell the spy rat to continue watching Kenku.

B) Tell the spy rat to return to us.

C) Tell the spy rat to find a better target to spy on.

D) Other suggestions.

C. "Do you think that I should use his help? a big strong general would bring attention to just a simple little Stargazer like me, Ebbio, wouldn't you think? Oooh hoo hoo hoo! Maybe a regular guard would fit me more?"

A) Tell the spy rat to continue watching Kenku. Abdle, here's the plan, lets direct all information about what the spy sees to us lesser demons privately, not Bobbie. We don't need her to get worried during this party, and make her look bad. What Bobbie doesn't know won't hurt her. If anything needs to be brought up, we will tell Bobbie ourselves.

That said, if Gramleza does something that will ruin us, she will have to suffer severe consequences.

>>1119669
Also, make sure Gramleza doesn't see spy rat either.

oh good, two spyings for the price of one. maybe they'll get in a fight.

our gracious host, surely you aren't implying that your own party in your own home is unsafe? We trust a guard, even one as impressive as this, will not be necessary.

C. and A. surely gramleza will have some sense into not making the rat spy obvious.... right....

Possible answers to the question that was asked:

A) Thank you for offering the guard, but it is not necessary.

B) I will take your help.

C) I need to go and finish something in the next room.

D) Other suggestions.

A/C ) Oh we aren't in disguise out of fear. Its just discretion. See what people say to a stranger they wouldn't say to our face. that sort of thing.

And then make our way calmly to the rat spy.

Hmmm. Okay, listen closely everyone

D and A

D: Abdle, immediately turn off the vision power you’re using to see what the rat is seeing. we don’t want to risk this newcomer peering through the rat’s mind, and seeing you through the rat giving away our location, Abdle. Might even hypnotize you if you don’t. We will check back on the rat a little later.

A: For you Bobbie, we need you to find a way to quickly send the general towards the direction Kenku went in such a way that won’t tip him off of our rat. if the general is quick enough, and goes into the same hall the newcomer is hypnotizing the rat is at, it could scare the hypnotist off and our rat can escape.

Bobbie, Say something like “oh, I don’t need to go that far for my safety, the disguise was meant to make sure no enemy spies see me or follow me here. I Can’t have Iron Dredge knowing I’m here at this party and have him become suspicious of you and me, and get you into trouble. there’s a lot of eyes on me from the forest to the skies after all, Ooo hoo hoo…”

*point towards the direction Kenku is at*

“Would it be rude of me to request The Roaring Storm patrol the halls for everyone’s safety, Instead?

A) + C) ask your spy rat to close your eyes but have it listen to the voice that is speaking to it.

Came in too strongly, Bobbie. Get back into character. B.

it'll be bad if they link the rat with Ebbio, especially if they find out/already found out this is one of Bobbie's spies.

They're a friend, and we'll thank you to allow us to see to their recuperation.

He's no slave if that's what you ask of us. Perhaps yours could be a bit less of a slave to its desires. Freedom can be abused and I do wonder if it just abused its freedom ooh hoo hoo!

C) ask the knight about that angle thing.

B). ungrisp that rat please.

Pick which person you want to approach first in this room.

Lets look at the bird in the cage

I'm picking the least interesting person in the room, the man in the mask (the last one). Sometimes the least interesting is the most interesting.

The last one looks like someone who is doing the same thing that we are doing, hiding their identity. Let's find out what their deal is.

Hood and goggles has potential. Like the idea of nightvision allies. Dat bottom left helmet though... great job Devoid (even if his face looks... selfishly intentioned.)

A) I wear it for medical reasons.

B) I wear it to hide my identity.

C) I am shy.

D) Other suggestions.

B) that's right, we're not here as ourself. To see what people really think of us.

Rat can watch your back for now, until a likely target shows up

Do we need a reason beyond it looks good? (Well it's technically no lie...) Spy rat on mantis?

B. Nothing more needs to be said. If he's wearing a mask, he'll be understanding about why we are disguised.

I'd send rat back out, probably to search for Kenku again, or look into the troupe, but that pear is out and about, as I don't see her in this room. We shall wait.

On second thought, spy rat needs training, and if angel pear isn't in this room and is instead out and about in the halls, the rat should be safe enough with spying on people in this room instead. If we spy on someone, it would have to be those that are distracted. that also means we can't spy on anyone outside like the traveling troupe or Kenku. Though if we get another chance, we need to have spy rat track and follow Kenku.

The girl looking out the window while distracted, is too close to Actus Opus, and would be bad if the rat gets found by him after he already linked that rat with us with us saying he's our pet.

Which is also why we shouldn't have the rat spy on him either. He isn't distracted at the moment.

Vance and Maya Din are chill with us, would be awkward if they caught the rat, and we'd have to rescue it again and explain ourselves.

I want to have more faith in Gramleza, we can ask her how she went after the party.

Shadowy goggles guy seems observant enough to spot rat with those big specs. they like Actus are not distracted with anything

That leaves strange man with hole talking to metal person, man with smiling mask looking at paintings, the man talking to the woman, the mantis, and the familiar woman near the bird cage.

I think Spy rat will spy on strange man with hole talking to metal person. They might be discussing something important that we might need to know.

Silly spy rat, I said spy on the the person with the hole on his chest talking to the metal person. Not the regular man talking to the regular woman. Eh, I'll give him a pass because he just woke up, and needed time to process his mind. But when he's ready, please go to the actual targets.

NOT b. If we ask them that, they'll feel obliged to ask us the same question. lets ask A instead. We explained our reasoning why we're here, it be their turn now. Also, would be good to keep a good relationship with them potentially.

Gotta meet the factions in person before deciding. Or is it a "pick at random" thing? Option 1 since castle owner may be listening.

A) So what are you looking for this night? Just a fun time or perhaps you're seeking to peek under someone's mask.

A)

Oh tell Ratislav no need to apologize. We heard enough from the first group to deduce they are... ambitious. Either we learn a new way of using fire... or we get burned. Per the new group, dynastic issues? Eh. Guess there's opportunities. However the big prize was our masked pal. Should what he says be true... well transitions are messy and dangerous but full of opportunities. Very big ones. Gives plans for Abdle's future... Either way let's speak to goggles. He'll probably figure out any spy we send. Sure he may be amused by the attempt but it may also just annoy 'em so direct approach it is.

Talk to Maya Din and Vance. since we are on friendly terms with Maya, we can probably reveal our identity to her if she can keep a secret. She might be able to give us more info this way about the others here.

Spy rat can keep tabs on mantis or continue listening in on the current conversation (we might learn what grandson they are talking about.

spy on mantis

talk to the hooded one

hmmhmm no one yet. Would you say we should follow yours?

It is sad that a creature who eats fears is itself afraid of have its own identity. As for their question answer with God of Appeasement, that is what is the popular choice for Heroes Guild.
