Here's an attempt at a plan:
[X] Remove blood-stained robes, leave the room, and lock the door behind us with Magic Lock. Head over to the Courtyard while attempting to remain calm/avoid drawing attention, to find Markus.
- [X] If Markus is at the Courtyard, appraise him on the situation quietly and attempt to find van Hal, both to ensure our liege's safety, and to place ourselves under his command. If van Hal cannot be found, try to find Kasimir.
- [X] If Markus is not at the Courtyard but other Greatswords are, take them with us [with a vague excuse about "be wary - treason is afoot"] and try to find van Hal
- [X] If the Courtyard is deserted of Greatswords, check the Study for van Hal; if he's not to be found, look in the Chapel for Kasimir.
-- [Q] If no one can be found, get out of the castle - everyone is probably dead
- [X] If Sir Berthold is at the Courtyard, probably safe to bring along a warpriest whose flaw is being too zealous, while executing whatever of the above is applicable.

[X] Confirm the kill, make sure the head is properly off. Remove blood-stained robes, leave the room, and lock the door behind us with Magic Lock. Head over to the Courtyard while attempting to remain calm/avoid drawing attention, to find Markus. Mindhole any castle staff who see you near the scene of the killing.

[X] Run out the room toward the courtyard while shouting "Zombies in the walls!".
- [X] If Markus or another named character are encountered then explain to them what has happened and tell them to quarantine the castle while awaiting direction from the Count.
I would suggest we burn down the castle but i have a feeling the Count wouldn't let that fly.

Slightly eyebrow-raisingly short in the arm and leg, but not scandalously so.
Lets save that for AFTER the alarm is raised.
We do our sword training in breeches not robes though?Mage not wearing robe = something has gone terribly wrong

Also, something we should consider for future personal wardrobe- make sure we have inconspicuous 'normal clothes' under the robes, so we can ditch it and blend in.

But... it shows an ankle! An ANKLE! And I detect some wrist!

Bringing in Sir Berthold is tempting, but best stick only to people we are reasonably sure of standing around or behind the boss with ready naked steel.

Hmm. What about 'Mindhole any castle staff hanging around on the interview room corridor, just in case'

Using Mindhole on the castle servants may not be the best idea if, as the above suggests, it removes all of their knowledge of the caster.

I have three questions
1.) Does Mathilde suspect the culprit is non-human in some way? The comments about "inhuman speed" and "the thing that just tried to kill you" might suggest so, or they might just be a poetic turn of phrase.
2.) If so, how obvious is it that the culprit is non-human? Is it clear now that he's dead, or does he still look entirely human?
3.)

Just one t of curiosity, what would've happened if we hadn't added Ranald's Blessing?

Good questions. But you might want to tag the QM, though.
Oh. Right. Thanks for the heads up.

We are basically a major reason for the inprovements overall. Don forget that it is EXPECTED for the peeps to be incompetent. What we have are mostly mediocre so by the places standard we have a couple geniuses already.
