Choice Text and Results

Unpack some candy

You unpack some boxes, finding them to be filled with candy. Well, at least it looks like that won't run out too quickly.

You've earned 4 XP in Strength

Look for fancy food

You unpack some more expensive crates and they do contain some more expensive foods: fresh fruit and tins of caviar. You get things broken down for the caterers to haul off.

You've earned 4 XP in Strength

Add a wriggling apple

You gingerly sneak a wriggling apple into the pile, alongside several of its normal kin.

You've earned 4 XP in Reflexes

Or, if not enough fancy food has been unpacked:

You set an apple out. It's kind of obvious with just candy around, but hopefully someone will fall for it.

You've earned 2 XP in Reflexes

Check the apples

You check over things, but don't find any sign of bad apples. You're still feeling a little paranoid, but it probably means they're actually fine… good news, really.

You've earned 4 XP in Perception

Or:

You track down a bad apple amid everything else. It's disgusting, moving in your hand, but at least now nobody will find it in a barrel.

You found: moving apple

Pocket something

Somebody's set some candy out! It's like trick-or-treating came early this year!

You find some fancy food! Oh man, it's time to start living the high life.

You found: caviar
You found: 2 crisp apple

Leave it be

Yeah, isn't this supposed to be a fancy party? Unpacking crates sounds like work for plebians!
