The twins’ griping turns to full-blown mutiny when you answer the next question.
“Oh hells FUCKING no,” the young male says. “No WAY am I playing at bait for some big green half-human Gobtown tourist with a hard-on for evil spirits!
“Yeah, screw this,” the female twin says, spitting on the ground. Her brother joins her in the gesture of rejection. “You guys get your souls et up all you want, but we have actual PROFITABLE plans for tonight.”
Zi scoffs, mocking them: “Cowards! Blowhards!”
The pair gesture obscenely and offensively as they leave the room. Zi turns back to the older male, and you follow her gaze…
But he shakes his head sadly, adjusts his cap and his eye-patch and—with a bit more solemnity—he spits on the ground as well. Then he, too, leaves.
Zi looks back at you. Her expression is conflicted—you can tell she wants to leave, too. But…
>-1 DC for infatuation“Can we still pull off the plan with you ‘n me,” she asks, “if I play the bait?”
What do you do?
>Go ahead with the plan as is—Zi serves as bait, you keep watch for demons, guards and Inquisitors, and she lures the hound to you so you can then attempt to entrap it>No, you wish to modify the pan—you don’t want to risk this goblin-girl’s life>No, this is untenable without the other goblins—you’re just going to sacrifice Zi to the hellhound to buy its loyalty>Write-in
