Well put. People are offering redemption for those who aren't seeking it of their own accord too easily. We have too much to deal with to add this to the pile.

[X] Turning A Bloody Leaf
I'm choosing these to get them to turn as they're fighting and seen with us. Then they have no other choice but to stick with Kerilian and such cause they're already caught assisting the enemy.
By then, they only can either leave, or betray us. Which is why having them stick to us is gonna be a lot better since they're gonna be often outnumbered and there isn't any other higher superior they can turn too. Afterwards, they can prob tag along Kerillian and to the Asrai where they'll at least be accepted. Redemption isn't easy, and they have to want it but that'll come in the long run.
The short run however, is them tagging us along as one larger group as one mailed fist. We can't afford to split up now, even with Kerillian having the First Draich.

[x] A Bloody Hand
[X] A Bloody Hand: There remains resistance to the Cult of Pleasure on the Ark, but one of their greatest opponents was practically dead before the fight even properly began. The Cult of Khaine was nearly destroyed at Salkalten, and was again brought even closer to the brink in the aftermath, leading to now, with bare handfuls of incredibly young acolytes all that remains. But many Druchii outside of the Brides of Khaine worship Him, for he is the utmost God championed by the Witch-King himself. A rallying force, wielded by the deadly Kerillian, could be just the thing to start truly tipping matters against the currently mostly dominating Cult of Pleasure. But it would require Kerillian to leave and be amongst the Druchii, alone, for there is no chance that a bunch of freed slaves would be able to make common cause with them, let alone with the Handmaiden Sadrina in tow.

Blood-Fed Roots: Young or old, We're getting Gwen some company!
One: Maximal murder of elf on elf. She will do fine enough not got herself killed, even If personnaly prefered her to stick to her guns(crossbows).
If things go belly up for her she can be trusted to not get herself killed or captured.
Just want Alyssa to hear the bad news.
Two: I do love the idea of Gwen bulling older girls into behaving. Sadly Nat would not make such a decision. but if fate were to build up in preferable ways...
Three: 1 down about a dozen more to go. with every dead sorceress that's 'devoted' the more labour and fence oriented spell calsters of the ark have an open hand to not have their sould damned to eternal torment.

Well, she did lead an Task force in charge of either retriving the Blade of Khaine Campion or crushing religious resistance. at the very least she's important.

Damn, Kerillian swinging Khaine around with the Maidenless MemeLmao
Kerillian to Khaine:
[X] Turning A Bloody Leaf
At this juncture of the relatively smol moving tide of vengeance? Not yet the time I reckon in splitting the party.
When we've caused enough chaos and brought near the point of confronting Alyssa maybe.
But here? We need a good solid core of bodies to get us through the next set of battles. Besides,
At least our Druichi younglings problem would be solved here and now. Unless oaths taken by a Waywatcher and a Handmaiden of the Everqueen can't be enforced by whatever elf divine magic?
That was 'sober' by Ostlander standard.... by the expectations of being born a Hohenzollern....Nothing changes then?
People may well think he's preparing to be the one to outdrink his Father...
he's going to single personnally double Castle Wulfenburg alkohol consumption for the duration.
I'm reacting to the text from the vote choice, not the thread. We get them as fighters, we can manage the fallout. This choice does use them.
The options are:
Bloody Hand
- Let Kerillian and the acolytes leave the group and try to rally the druchii
-- let a recently imprisoned asrai and a bunch of tweenage acolytes try to rally the druchii
I dont like kerillian leaving the party, this option seems extremely risky
One red nail
- Let Kerillian keep the sword but let the acolytes go die on their own without using them
No one is talking about this option
Bloody Leaf
- Let Kerillian keep the sword, keep the acolytes, stay with the party, and try to introduce the kids to another way to worship Khaine.
I think she will be succesful. They're children with no leader figure, everything they knew has been torn to shreds, the Asrai way as taught by one inarguably accepted by Khaine will probably be a via media they're primed for at the moment.
I favor everyones odds better with Kerillian in the group than fumbling about blindly trying her hand at intrigue

The rally the druchii part is key to the Bloody hand's benefit.
If we just recruit this handful of acolyte, that's all we're likely to get. Druchii aren't going to rally around our group in meaningful numbers, the Handmaiden will make them balk if nothing else, but they might around a group led by someone chosen by the First Draich, who has won over Khaine cultists.
If we have those acolyte with us, we can manage that much...but kiss goodbye to the chances of Natasha recruiting slaves we run into. They won't join with those druchii present.
Separately, Kerillian and Natasha's groups could rally druchii and slaves respectively in their own fights against Alyssa and the demons, even if not working side by side.
If Kerillian and her acolyte stay here...it's just that. Little hope of integrating more from either druchii or slaves. So pockets of resistance against Alyssa at best. Makes it easier for her forces to snuff them out and regain control.

oh that would be interesting because in such case it would be a sitting duck waiting for asur navy to pick it up
Or we could just sail back to Salkalten.

Yeah, I certainly don't fancy having to roll for any fighting fit slaves seeing us with Druuchi.
Poor blood nail completly alone, anyway.
We need 8 more votes
Mechanically, I'm happy to add +X (Acolytes of Khaine) to Natasha's party. Very happy. I consider that a certainty and it's good to further bolster our numbers. And you're right, they might. But they might not, and it costs Kerillian as a party member to try it. I'd rather not gamble on it.
This is not true, on several levels. A druchii looks like any other elf, however these acolytes are clearly khainists, but they're also clearly very young. They are not an authority, in fact they may even provide some conceptual protection to have a couple druchii with us.
It might be a point of conversation ore ven contention, but I'm not sure you're registering how incredibly effective Sadrina is at recruiting Asur, Roland and Jacqueline are at recruiting Bretonnians. A handful of druchii children do not outweigh their impact, nor the impact of Oksana and the pegasus and the mighty priestess of the widow leading them all.
By the way, we already had the vote for focusing or not focusing on recruiting more fighters! I voted for it but the thread voted against. We are on the warpath, and the loose additions we might pick up along the way are not the priority. We do not preclude them from joining if we encounter them, but it isn't going to be Natasha's focus anyway.

Slaves are not going to care about their AGE. The fact you say they're clearly Khainite will only work against them.
Any enslaved person capable of being useful in a fight would by default have the rational thinking to identify (my enemies) vs (child raised by my enemies).

Circumstances change. I think from this update it's clear that there's still resistance on the Ark, but it's scattered. If it remains scattered the more likely it is that Alyssa's forces will take control and win.
But right here we have a way to rally scattered druchii around a common champion for them, the one wielding the First Draich. It's a way to rally those forces and use them towards our cause, albeit indirectly. Without Kerillian rallying them, Alyssa wipes them out most likely.
Not that I care if they get wiped out beyond their capacity to keep Alyssa from gaining control and forcing her to come out.
That appeal to the druchii is compromised by Sadrina's presence, just as the appeal of Natasha's group to freed slaves would be diminished by the druchii presence.
As is our group has done some damage but we will need to rest soon and can't do much more than these sort of attacks. We need sustainable fronts and something bigger. Kerillian recruiting druchii is one means toward that. Recruiting slaves is another. But that won't work with the druchii here, having druchii, Asur, and other freed slaves together compromises recruiting more from all such groups.
