How do I remove Abbott Theocene from my party?

[ozwally]

I've just completed the questline for the tax collectors and returned to the abbey. I've left the Abbey but he is still in my group, how to I remove him?

[warrgood]

Did you talk to him again at the bridge? After defeating the tax collectors at the bridge, click on the bridge again. He will then ask you to escort him back to the abbey, or you can attack and kill him.
That's the only thing I can think of that would prevent you from getting rid of him.

I did yes, talked to him and got the escort or attack option.
I escorted him back to the Abbey and got my reward but he's never left my party since

torture and kill him in camp hahaha

Layo's solution may be your only bet, because you won't be able to complete the quest for Captain Hostes with the abbot in your party (per someone else's thread where they got stuck with both guys and couldn't compete either quest),

Sounds like a bug as once get back to Abbey and talk to him to get reward should auto leave party

Same issue.

Unfortunately no suggestion currently works. You can't whip him or drop him at your trading post. Game ends if you attack him. Tried all these things and nothing will let me complete Arthes.

We can only hope for a patch later

I came back to this. I think I found a way to get him out of your inventory by putting him in bed at this quest: The Curse of Harag https://www.neoseeker.com/wartales/guides/The_Curse_of_Harag
Save before you do it cause the game will glitch out and keep repeating he's no longer in your inventory. Go engage the boars and when you come back to get him you can recruit him. allowing you to leave him at a trade post

[bosley.boddy]

Disregard You can sit him down at a travelers post, but for some reason he still wont f off.

Found a possible workaround in Reddit. After this borked my save ofc. Can't confirm but sounds promising and makes logical sense.

why would you want to get rid of him/them. I have quest NPCs following me around working as a never run away slave.
