And there was much rejoicing.

As usual, there are more characters I want to spend time with than open slots, but

[X] Gretel, who's apparently spending her newly-earned wealth to make herself at home.
[X] Max, during the few breaks in the silence as the two of you worked on Queekish in the Room of Serenity.
[X] Sir Ruprecht Wulfhart, leader of the frontier town of Ulrikadrin.
[X] Emperess Heidi and Mandred for Mandreds First Birthday
[X] Anton, to see how his firearm factory is going.
[X] Wilhelmina, to see how she's going when she's not a terrifying financial juggernaut.
[X] Francesco Caravello, proud leader of the Undumgi and possible future Thane.
[X] Oswald Oswaldson, newly-minted Chief Bombardier of the Undumgi.
[X] Soizic, military leader of the Undumgi.

(Then add tactical vote removal as things narrow down)

I don't know if kragg will want to work on AV, given he has Bok. We should still give grandpa the right of first refusal before going to thorek, of course... But maybe Thorek can do something with us?

I would not dare to wake him up from his nap unless there was a real reason.
"Real reason" means "we have a huge pile of gold to give you as a gift, no strings attached" or "here's a Dwarf King, ready to sign that treaty recognizing your claim". Any other reason is pushing it.

Suppose we went to mandred's party:
Are we his 'fairy' godmother?
What gift would we give? Because of course we have to overachieve in this area as well :)
 
Talks with dragon won't fall under social interactions because we are not really at the point where our talks could be social interaction instead of diplomatic one, methinks.

It's technically possible, but all indications are that the Vitae is raw magic in an unusual phase, not actual literal blood as mundane animals have. You can take it as WoG that it would only have resulted in really nasty aneurysms in the test subjects.

Ok, so how much more effort do we have to take to officially confirm that result in character? 'Induces really nasty aneurysms through the introduction of a previously unknown substance to the target's system' sounds like useful fodder for the Assassination Trait voting bloc.

If it can't be traced to us, great! If it explicitly and unmistakably sends the message that The Thane Sends Her Regards, equally great!

Our little man needs a Pegasus and a enchanted teddy bear that has horrible spells sleeping in its matrix waiting to annihilate all who would harm Mandred sings fun songs!

Gazul "is this an enemy of dwarven kind?"
Matty "anyone who hurts mandred is definitely an enemy of dwarven kind, start up the barbecue!"

It's volatile, would react to any spellcasting its carrier performed, and it looks like fireworks to Magesight when it's transforming. It would make a terrible poison.

A bit disappointed that we never tapped into her network especially when we are making a parallel one again.

It is going to be hard for this option to win, but I'd vote with my heart here. As for a suitable gift, I'd suggest an extremely fair Six-Sided Dice fit for our Casino, as a toy for our future Emperor, in hopes that we aquaint him early on to the notions of risk and probability, and the wisdom of making decisions as a ruler of taking the Domain of Ranald, the Lord of Probability, into account. So, I'm voting for this option, and the next four most preferred options too.


[X] King Belegar, as he scrambles to deal with having very suddenly accomplished his dream.

We were responsible for Belegar's sudden accomplishment of his dream. What now, though, that Belegar has fulfilled the initial purpose he swore his life to? I'd like to know what Belegar's mental state, since the problems that weigh on his mind, and the burden of ruling his people and those that have joint his people have not gone away with the Reclamation.

[X] Roswita, as she campaigns through Hunger Wood.

We've truly completed one campaign that was only possible because Roswitta choosed to dismiss us. It's only fair we return to Roswitta, since without her choices, the Eight Peaks may never have been reclaimed with such swift speed, nor would have hope returned to mankind's oldest ally. I think visiting Roswita makes for a highly satisfying bookend to one vital phase of our life, which arguably began the day we left the Court of Stirland.


[X] Anton, to see how his firearm factory is going.

It's only fair we return back to Anton now that the Eight Peaks has been fully reclaimed. Whatever we think of him, he is almost certainly one of our dearest friends, and almost certainly one of our oldest existing mortal friendships, since we couldn't maintain a friendship with any of our fellow apprentices thanks to a decisive low roll so early on in the quests.


[X] Sir Ruprecht Wulfhart, leader of the frontier town of Ulrikadrin.

We may soon be caught up in the affairs of the Ulricans. Socializing with Sir Ruprecht seems prudent in such circumstances.

Yes, it's very human-centric, but we just fully reclaimed a Dwarf Hold. Let's keep up with our human contacts at the conclusion of our triumph, for we will soon be back with the affairs of the Dwarves soon enough.

On one hand, hell yeah, Boney's back. On the other hand, this thread will now likely resume completely consuming my life.
