>PERSUADE 2 SUCCESS: Sir Vladimir Romaine has heard of your exploits, extolling you to the others as a great example of the character of men that your homeland produces. You cannot tell if he is entirely sincere, but he is friendly.
>99 Double Fail: Implied insult to House Romaine. Roselyn is going to murder you. Deflected
>INTRIGUE 2 SUCCESS: The distraction serves to sufficiently draw away Sir Romaine’s attention just before the conversation, taking an ill turn, resulted in you actually saying anything too stupid.
Sir Vladimir Romaine serves as a classic example of the good breeding and inherent nobility of Romani high society. Even here, a continent away and in the company of warriors both domestic and foreign, the man conducts himself with impeccable decorum. Friendly and debonair, he shows no hesitation in displaying familiarity with you despite the difference in rank both at home and in the 43rd Talon.
<span class="mu-i">“Please, allow me to introduce you to the man who split the Marquis Fallavon right down at the collarbone.”</span> Sir Romaine says with a slap on your shoulder. <span class="mu-i">“Sir Emile Andrei. He comes from good Romani stock, as well you can tell.”</span>
<span class="mu-i">“The Marquis? That was you?”</span> Sir Ian de Camp asks with wide eyes. <span class="mu-i">“-And- Sinclair? Reginae wept, you must be a popular chap in Fallavon.”</span>
<span class="mu-i">“You’ve no idea…”</span> You mutter under your breath quietly as your new comrades persist.
<span class="mu-i">“Pascae too, one imagines.”</span> Sir Kristopher Marley sees the questioning looks of his comrades and offers some explanation. <span class="mu-i">“Sir de Broulert? House Hewitt’s downfall and attaintment? This is him, this is the fellow. Cain on the Cross am I the only one of you banished pitfiends still reading letters from home?!”</span>
At this the Marshall Jurand also takes an interest, his critical eye seeming a touch more favourable on a closer appraisal of his newest subordinate. In his time, the Wave of Calais was known for upending Pascae politics so perhaps news of your own efforts in that direction have lifted you in his estimation.
<span class="mu-i">“Don’t forget the Norsikaans.”</span> Sir Benjamin Ibram chips in with a wide grin. <span class="mu-i">“And now you’ve gone and joined the Guard, forbidden from handing out any more thrashings to your fellow knights. Almighty knows that we’ll need to find you some other pastime.”</span>
<span class="mu-i">“He’s duelled and bested knights from one side of Canton to the other, our new Lance.”</span> Sir Vladimir Romaine winks jovially. <span class="mu-i">“We breed them strong in our Duchy.”</span>
<span class="mu-i">“I hear for Roman the dead not stay dead.”</span> The foreign Azir Chimchala forgoes Battle Cant in an attempt to speak in your tongue directly, likely due to your own current lack of Cant fluency. <span class="mu-i">“You Arndray have this problem?”</span>
