Jazhara7 Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 It's too late! Eld Engwith was a bad example and Vela is a full on druggie. At least now I know why she acts so weird when I talk to her.Background to this. I accidentally noticed I can pickpocket my crew, because switching to on-deck view, I didn't notice that my PC was in sneak mode. When I tried talking to one of them, the pickpocket window opened instead. Am I a bad person for seeing what all my other crew members have in their pockets? I honestly was just hoping *ONE* of them would carry sugar so I can make that blasted second packet of candied nuts. I swear, sugar seems to be the most rare resource in the Deadfire. Fittingly, Aloth was just worrying about Vela having learned a bad word from Serafen. 13 I am proud to say that in our graduation yearbook, I was voted to be the most likely of my class to Communicate with Cows. Did you know if you made a slingshot completely fashioned out of badgers and shot a peanut into outer space you could blow up the sun? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yonjuro Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 Too bad I killed her. Yeah, and now you have a drug addled orlan child to raise all by yourself (no, your pirate crew doesn't count as a mother figure). I hope you're happy. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazhara7 Posted May 20, 2018 Author Share Posted May 20, 2018 Personally, I blame the parent. Preposterous! My watcher would never lead their child, received through ab-doption to use drugs. Now some nice Mead, that is another story. I wonder if they have mead from pine honey on Eora. Or maybe from Orangeflower honey. Or from Lindenflower honey. Yes, this whole child abduction thing has so many pitfalls. Who knew? Grieving Mother. She should have told us. I'm still not quite sure if she wasn't high on some weird soul drug after all, and just making up that whole birthing bell story as a cover. 1 I am proud to say that in our graduation yearbook, I was voted to be the most likely of my class to Communicate with Cows.

Aramintai Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 Personally, I blame the parent. Yea, judging from all the companions banter with Vela the Watcher is just terrible - doesn't teach her anything useful, treats her like a servant. And doesn't talk to her at all for whatever reason (devs ran out of money probably). So, better leave her alone in POE1, she'd be better off as a tribe leader than some errand girl.

InsaneCommander Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 (edited) It should be easy to add a few more lines of dialogue, at least. Vela calling the watcher Mom/Dad for example. If she is supposed to be treated like a servant, then it's essentially Orlan slavery and companions that don't like racism should react to it.

InsaneCommander Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 - If she sleeps in your room, you expose her to the rabid companions - If you send her to the menagerie, you'll be accused of treating her like an animal - If you leave her with the crew, she becomes a drunk and a drug addict - If you send her away from the ship, it's child abandonment It's a no-win situation. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
