If we don't make the kobold our main battle tank using that plate armor we got I will be sad.

Take the baby, if anyone asks us about it later we say it's clearly a gnome that hosed up an experiment. I mean really a group of monster hunters with a kobold? Preposterous Y'all need to fight the system of racial oppression and genocide. Our corporation is an equal opportunity employer/enslaver. Also if someone ends up killing him we can demand bloodgeld for the killing of our friend/prisoner/slave and then we can take the crown. Plus if its bigger by then I assume the crown will be too and thus worth more. So tldr version : If we kill it now we get a small immediate bonus but if we wait and see where this goes we might get anything from a kicking rad trap master to a better payout when/if the crown grows. Or a recurring villain if it escapes which would be fun too. Telsa Cola fucked around with this message at 18:22 on Apr 12, 2016 |

See if you can get a fuckton of gears or something and just jam them right into his wound, make a deal with Toil leasing him out for a job for a bit in order to heal him? But the gears are important so we should totally jam some into him just in case.

Where does enchanting people with magical bullshit fall on the actions that can lead to self defense spectrum? Enchanting someone to fall asleep when and where there is a man eating monster around sounds like murder. More so when they have already shot at us before. I think we could take them in court.

Also I would argue that negotiations ceased the moment he pulled the magical bullshit, this then led to him getting shot by an arrow, in retaliation for the magical bullshit. It was reactionary and she also had no way of knowing we actually fell asleep instead of dying, besides the possible word of some bandits. gently caress it bring the court case on they have nothing on us. Edit: We were asleep when he died, It would be very hard to argue that we were aware and the situation was under " our watch". Telsa Cola fucked around with this message at 01:37 on Feb 1, 2017 |

I think there is a working understanding that there is magical poo poo in this world, I find it hard to believe given golem factories, gnomes alchemists, slimes and what not a court is going to go "What! A magic flute that puts people to sleep? Don't be ridiculous"

Yeah we barely know anything about the laws that would apply to this besides we can't just out and out kill people, there should be something on the books about hindering monster hunters during an active contract though because if there isn't that is just bad planning. We should give the guy on hand first aid, and try to get him help or whatever. But those slimes can be better used to save more lives than just him. If the Empire is really really focused on contracts like everyone says it is then us keeping to our end of the contract and delivering all the slimes as promised to save lives or whatever will be looked on favorably. It would also be kinda lovely of us to use the slimes that could be used to help the boa wounded to help this dude who tried to murder us to try to assuage our guilt or whatever. I believe we have a ethical, legal and professional responsibility to tend to his wounds and rush him to help but no more. Telsa Cola fucked around with this message at 22:30 on Feb 2, 2017 |

I appreciate you taking the time to answer my questions. I think we should help him as best as we can without using the slimes or contracted related resources, if we get taken to court I believe we have enough evidence and mitigating circumstances that we will get the best possible outcome.

Outrail posted:What about giving the final surviving bandit her poo poo back and telling her to never, ever come back. We then bury the death certificate and tell the authorities that he must have run away in the confusion. Death certificates seem to have the divine ability to not be hidden so we will bury it and then a badger or whatever will decide to make its burrow where we did so and it will conveniently be out in the open again

Mr. Nemo posted:I mean, who would be able to say that they didn't shoot first at Skvabat? I don't even think we have to lie, and if we did and they did use divine truth telling I think Meg will have to say things that work in our favor. I honestly think we can be honest and upfront, the bandits were aggressively hindering us during the pursuit of an active contract, we were armed with less lethal (Wooden) weapons and we sadly had to engage due to time constraints (them running off with the contract goals, too risky to get guards). During a stand off where we tried to negotiate a peaceful resolution the wounded/now dead bandit did *something* that put us to sleep which set off an unfortunate chain of events given the high tensions due to situation and also presence of a monster. After the monster was defeated we did everything we could to help him but we sadly decided that fulfilling contract and healing the helpless victims of the Boa was more important then expending the resources to save this one life.

Wait, is our employees gear ours or the company?ST's above post make it seem like its the companies. If its ours then shouldnt the sword she was going to get go to us. Something along the lines of "As an employee of ITEC the decedent know formally as Abagail had no privilege or powers to make or be a recipient of an independent oath,bond,promise, curse or other wordly binding on her own behalf, seperate from the company during her term of employment. Therefore the rightful holder and recipient of the oath is the Company known as ITEC and upon completion of the one (1) year deadline ownership of the sword should revert to the ITEC company holdings where it may be loaned to an employee of ITEC in the pursuit of ITEC goals and profits." Also Quackeen is literally the god of capitalism and profits, I highly doubt she will care about Abigail unless her death causes a loss in profits.

Mr. Nemo posted:We are supposed to provide equipment for them to do their job. I expect that if they leave we get to keep it. Your same argument for us getting to keep the sword if she dies in battle could feasibly be used for us receiving the sword when she dies before the year is up. Id also rather not have people start crafting lovely plans just to off her and get her sword. I feel confident that we could rule lawyer our way into getting the sword if she dies now, especially if we can make a case to the church of Toil that the sword would be used to fulfill the same jobs it would if it was given to her, with the added benefit of more jobs give our company's (hopefully longer) lifespan. For was Abagial not a cog in the larger machine that was ITEC? I also honestly don't want to spend every contract trying to save her from herself before that year is up. Plus this is a chance to continue our reputation as that one mortal who lawyers the gently caress up when approached with anything mystical or divine.

Mr. Nemo posted:Ah yes, if there is one thing Gods love is when mortals try to outplay them, that has never worked poorly for anyone. Not meant in an aggressive tone. Its less us outplaying them and more contractural law is appears to be a huge part of this setting which even gods follow and we would be idiots to not use that. Plus Toil is a god that seems pretty easy to play to, Abagail is basically a cog in the machine that is ITEC, we can do the same if not better job with the sword, etc etc. Honestly if she does not die now Im going to vote to fire her, we dont need someone who we need to train and also restrain from getting them selves killed. I do hope she does die because shes going to hold a grudge if we fire her and gently caress off to another company. Edit: like this is not us having them turn into a mouse so we can stomp on them or whatever its us utilizing a system of contracts and laws that almost all the gods seem to follow.

If she wants that power then she needs to become a major shareholder and support our company via cash or divine favor on a constant basis.  Im going to Vote C.
