Early in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, Henry and his companions will encounter Captain Thomas on their way to the castle. Your task is to persuade Thomas of your message's authenticity.
You'll be presented with these dialogue options:
Dialogue Option | Playstyle | Description |
---|---|---|
“I’m a soldier and Lord Capon’s bodyguard.” | Soldier | Favors combat, strong armor, and a short temper. |
“I’m an adviser to a nobleman and an envoy.” | Adviser | Prefers intellect, diplomacy, and persuasion. |
“I’m the scout of our company.” | Scout | Specializes in stealth and silent approaches. |
While the initial choice influences your starting stats (Soldier, Adviser, or Scout), it doesn't fundamentally alter the outcome of this encounter. However, choosing "Adviser" is beneficial. Boosting your Persuasion and Charisma early on will prove advantageous in later interactions with NPCs. Many quests require more than just raw strength.
Following your introduction, further dialogue with Captain Thomas will ensue. Consistency is key. If you choose "Adviser," maintain that persona throughout the conversation. Sticking to your story will ensure a successful interaction.
Even if you deviate from your chosen path, Hans will often intervene to correct the situation, allowing the story to progress naturally.
