Early in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, Henry and his companions encounter Captain Thomas en route to the castle. Your goal: persuade Thomas you carry a message for von Bergow.
Your initial introduction offers these dialogue options:
| Dialogue Option | Playstyle | Description |
|---|---|---|
| “I’m a soldier and Lord Capon’s bodyguard.” | Soldier | Favors combat, strong armor, and has a short temper. |
| “I’m an adviser to a nobleman and an envoy.” | Adviser | Prefers intellect, diplomacy, and persuasion. |
| “I’m the scout of our company.” | Scout | Specializes in stealth and silent approaches. |
The initial choice affects starting stats and playstyle. However, since many quests require more than combat, selecting "Adviser" is beneficial. This boosts Persuasion and Charisma, aiding interactions with NPCs.
Subsequent dialogue with Captain Thomas requires sticking to your chosen story. If you're the adviser, remain consistent. Even if you falter, Hans intervenes, ensuring the narrative progresses.
