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 dialogue options are:

Dialogue OptionPlaystyleDescription
“I’m a soldier and Lord Capon’s bodyguard.”SoldierA combat-focused approach, favoring strength and aggression.
“I’m an adviser to a nobleman and an envoy.”AdviserA diplomatic approach, utilizing persuasion and charisma.
“I’m the scout of our company.”ScoutA stealth-oriented approach, emphasizing subtlety and evasion.

The initial choice affects starting stats and playstyle. However, since many quests require more than combat prowess, selecting "Adviser" is beneficial. This boosts Persuasion and Charisma, aiding interactions with NPCs.

Subsequent dialogue with Captain Thomas requires sticking to your chosen persona. If you chose "Adviser," maintain consistency. This ensures a successful persuasion.

Even if you deviate, Hans intervenes, resolving the situation and advancing the story.
