The Gentry is hunting us, hoping to bring us to their Eldritch Masters.
If we save the lady, it may or may not be a trap. However, we do a good deed, which is very damn rare in WoD, and may probably trigger Virtue.
If we believe it's a trap, well... we get the hell out of here in the interests of However, regardless of whether or not it is a trap, our morality/conscience may take a hit.
If we use her as a distraction, we are very much pragmatic and ruthless which has a higher chance of triggering degeneration rolls and probably lowering our morality/conscience.
Now... seeing as we are in the Hedge, a normal human, and being chased by the Gentry... from a metagame point, we might as well help her, seeing as we will be caught, no questions asked. What we do know defines us, since I believe this is part of character creation. That being the case...

Not quite. We're a Changeling in the midst of our escape from Arcadia. We've made it into the Hedge, but haven't escaped yet. So there's no definite chance that the Gentry will catch us, but it becomes more likely if we grab another person while we're escaping.

Legitimacy is kind of hampered when all of the international conspiracy factions are squabbling hunter factions.
On the "international conspiracy" level, there's also the Seers of the Throne and the God-Machine. As above, so below, I guess.

Oh right... damn. I hate being a zombie in the morning. Makes me miss out details.
I'll still keep my vote since losing Clarity is a massive pain in the ass.

Not so much a trap rather. . .
An elaborate ruse to confound a gentleman.
(Still going to stumble into though.
Changeling is filled with various hidden tests of character)

Mirror Mirror , What do I look like?
Post 2.5
But while you thought about this, there stood to reason that the body opposed to you would also look at you and think over as to what she saw as her vision became more clear. What did she see that came into the clearing? What was so horrible or so beautiful that she would reach out, asking for help, yet attempt to defend herself?
[] A dog faced creature, steadfast, not beaten, but branded. He possesses fluffy ears and two rows of sharp, ripping teeth as well as a shimmering fur in which tattered ribbons in multicolored hues have been woven here and there. Despite the predatory appearance, he seems more like a lost pet than an actual monster.
[Beasts. You are a True Friend and also a Hunter. You can rip someone's throat out either with your teeth or ferocious hands and you help your friends in need by bolstering their will while having animalic charisma. Alas, your instincts are sometimes stronger than reason and can make pure mental tasks harder for you.]
[] Bleached skin under a mop of hair, colorless like an old photograph not yet tinted by age, and long fingers ending with sharp, metallic nails that scratch anything they touch. His arms bleed dark on em. This creature of wide eyes seems to vanished into the shadows and his head turns from side to side in an uncanny way as if his vision was seeing more then others, yet he has a dark allure.
[You are a Darkling, quick witted and at home in every shadow and lie, though the sun's glare is dampening your magic. You can make people whisper secrets to you easily and like the quintessential turncoat, beware those about whom you whisper to, but that is what your razor sharp hands are for.]
[]Elementals.A creature of living flames, burning without fuel. The fire was beautiful but also deadly as this is the inferno given form. White ash is trailing behind him as he moves but the thorns and trees are not burning even if the ground sizzles for a moment and remains unmarred.
[You are the Living Flame a Elemental , and this connection can save your life as you can make yourself harder to kill and you cling to life like a candle. But, you are a part of nature which means empathy and talking are far more rare in which you are lessened by your alien viewpoint. But your reactions are fast as a flame as your thoughts burn brightly and faster if you fuel them with magic.]
[] A body bred for sin, as it made lithe and sinuous movements. The muscles shimmered like gold and jewels with claws sharp enough to cut the diamonds that that body deserved. He walks like the world belongs to him and maybe it does as his eyes say mine, something that is so dangerous, yet so tempting.
[You are a Fairest, a Devil and you understand greedy people quite well and are able to make em see your way easier while you are no slouch in unarmed fighting. You can be quite good at bending people to your will but your sanity is a bit more fragile if you act against your moral fibre.]
[] A man misshapen as if he has been tortured. He appears to be large, scary, and menacing as his skin bears scar-like marks like a slave of old and a pair of manacles has been interwoven into his flesh. Skin and muscle continued to grow, despite the thorny chains remaining the same in size and shape. His chest inflates and deflates slowly as his breath causes vibrations, shaking the leaves before him, yet there is something that feels like a gentle aura coming off him.
[You are an Ogre. Strong, menacing, but lacking in self control. Your nose is like the cyclops of old and it detects more than mere scents and you also have his fathers blessing upon you.]
[]Scars marr this one for he is small, a bit hunched over, and wears a tattered uniform with a musket and a sword at his side that he touches with familiar ease. One of his eyes is fractured and replaced with one made of metal, yet it moves like a real one. Circuits are running over his face before they vanish under his uniform and his drab metal hands seem to melt into his weapons while steam comes from some unknown cracks.
[You are a Wizened. You lack in personality and seem to vanish on the social radar, but blade and gun are your calling while your fingers and limbs are quick to evade harm while you are able to craft beauty, even if you lack the strength of others. Despite this, you can break technologies and all things crafted by invoking your magic once a day.
Note the vote about what to do with her is still ongoing.

As a mechanics teaser, the Beat Cop's body and mind are built in a way where he is most clearly gifted physically with mental as the next though his social impact is a bit lacking, in terms of things that he learned on the road of life, it is similar. Or to be more mechanical his spread is Physical, Mental, and Social for distribution of dots to both Attributes and Skills in terms of most to least.
A reminder to all our posters that we will do our best to answer all questions whenever they come up in the thread, though we might miss a few, so please feel free to ask again.

-[1] but it may be a trap so be alert
[4] It's a trap!
- [2] Run away. RUN AWAY, BRAVELY.
[2] Use her as distraction, as you can't save both the woman and yourself...
It seems that compassion has won out, but if your paranoia, or selfish merciless behavior make a comeback the poor lady might find that her white knight has a black heart.
[4] Darkling Votes
[2] Fairest votes so far
[1] Elemental burns ever vigilant.
A Ogre all lost and alone, seems it was a bad idea to eat the last voter.
Alas being mans best friend seems not to garner any votes.
Alas and the soldier sadly no one is voting for the faceless mass splat.
As usual the tally is still influencent by arguments and fanwork so stay tuned.~

I pointed out probability of this being a trap. . .And shame on you , El Presidente engaging in voting fraud by voting on both sites ! I will send Miss Pineapple to deal with you.
. . yet still advocate saving her.
Posting a picture of trap related subjects doesn't reflect my vote.
Sorry for causing you that undue confusion.
I meant that you posted a vote here and on SB instead~
Or is this your burning desire to safe this maiden?

The Darkling seems less inherently built and suited for combat, physically, than a lot of the other option. Which is appealing since I would really enjoy playing a character that is focused on other things.
The lack of a struggle between base instinct and higher thinking is also a big plus for me; it's going to be bad enough fitting into society again without constantly having to struggle not to, say, tear out the throat of an offensive DMV employee, or become violently protective of family members (if we ended up killing the Fetch and taking our life back).
