Choice Text and Results

Talk wine

He laughs. "Well, sure, it's not a party without wine!"

He fiddles around with his comm for a second until you show him how to transfer 250 credits to the drinks fund.

Talk food

"Hmmm. Well, I suppose we will need food."

He fiddles around with his comm for a second until you show him how to transfer 100 credits to the food fund.

Talk decorations

"It would be a shame to have another party in a drab ballroom. Work's Christmas parties are bad enough."

He fiddles around with his comm for a second until you show him how to transfer 200 credits to the decorations fund.

Talk security

He nods. "Yes, I suppose it wouldn't do to have to fight barbarians back from the gates with my cane, would it? I'll have a talk with the guards, make sure they're on their toes."

Or, in Midgard Security outfit:

"I guess you're not kidding." He nods grimly and leans a little closer.

"I heard the kids've given you problems before slipping drugs into the punch. No troubles with that this year, I hope."

"Anyway, I'll let the guards here know to be on their best behavior."

Talk costumes

He moves his head equivocally from side to side. "I'm not quite sure about my costume yet. I might go with an old classic or something a little more extreme… I'll probably check with the other folks going before I decide."

You've earned 2 XP in Will

Or, with counterculture? cyberware installed?:

He nods. "I'm still thinking a bit about my costume. Perhaps something a little more extreme might fit in better, maybe some cybernetics for the evening, you know?"

You've earned 4 XP in Will

Or, with a classic costume installed?:

He nods. "I'm still thinking a bit about my costume. Probably an old classic. It's hard to go wrong with the classics."

You've earned 4 XP in Will

Elect for violence

He seems shocked, but pulls his cane out with practiced ease. Even if he doesn't get into a lot of fights, he certainly knows which end of that thing to beat someone with.

(Fight Tower Resident (male))

Blow him off

You give him a nod and he continues wandering around, pestering security about where he can find some wine.

(Walk Away)
