Who did you embrace? And why?

[JaniceCautious]

Specifically with the NPCs in the game's districts. I ended up embracing Clay on my kill playthrough, because I thought he was an evil enough person, being a murderer and all. What about you?

Every one except Mother(killed by Mary), cause I wanted to try a lv3 beating lv51 red queen run(also confront Mccullum with phase 3 red eye when first met). Though if I ever start a new playthrough, I would spare Sean cause the cutscene is kind of kinky.I really enjoyed 4th ending, so it will always end up with killing nearly all. But since I recently explored all NPC embrace effect, I would suggest embrace Clay when first met(Otherwise he'll have no regret)/Beatrice(Mortimer would give up commiting suicide)/Strickland(Harvey's arm will be fixed)/Pippa(Stopped the extortion)/Fr. Tobias
Whitaker(Don't like his murdering in the name of God, also tired of his yabbering)/Cadogan(No more high rent/disgusting payment)/Lorreta-Mason(No more fake)/Seymour(Stop Murder)/Martin(Stop decption)Venus(Stop poisoning)/Carolyn(Carol would be free) so other NPC would have a rather peace time however short it may be. By the way, Dawson must DIE!

I haven't embraced anyone, because I didn't know (and actually I don't know now) how many embraces lock best ending.

Unless you define murderous beast as best ending, embrace no one(and don't turn Dawson just in case).

Lady Brienne of Tarth, steadfastly adhering to linguistic tradition while recognizing the importance of distinguishing between subject and object, would ask not "Who did you embrace?" but instead "Whom did you embrace?".
