Why spare Sebille?

[Mr. Chives]

I can't think of any RP reason not to just kill Sebille as soon as she pulls that needle business in Fort Joy. Of course there's the meta reason that I'd like a rogue in the party, but even then I could just put points into theif on my character and be just the same out of combat.

Anyway, am I the only one in the "murder Sebile" camp?

[Chmeva]

I think a better question from an RP perspective is why she spares *you*.

In all seriousness though, I don't think you're the only one. Personally I would rather take a different origin character (and will probably do once more options are available).

[Serrassi Effect]

I usually start out as Sebille, so :P

If you play as an evil character, she might be a good fit.
You don't need to befriend her. Just use her dark, strong powers to reach your own dark RP goals.

[Sulfuras of the East]

You arrive on an island full of people deemed dangerous.At some point you meet sebile and she threatens to kill you with the needle already in position to kill you.So a few positive aspects of this are:
She proves herself strong and capable
She spares you for whatever reason and their is most likely a motive to uncover
Her backstory hits a few really good plot hooks to make you want to get to know the character
(Which for the psychopath seems surprisingly human,And you get that Whole opening up slowly but surely experience which is awesome because it will make the choice of becoming a possible god even more taxing for you)
And other things as well

Rp Reasons:
Fear,Maybe not kill but avoid
Respect/Debt/Overcome she proves herself stronger than you in that movment so you either respect that,pay back her kindness,Or become the stronger person.
Take what allies you can get and most of them have their flaws which is great story wise

Lol Here's my sphill,That i thought when i first met her.

[Sai Kyouji]

because savage is the new normal.
It is an island full of dangerous crazies.

[Ceredh]

Because my main is an elf and can understand her to a certain degree. She is also sexually attractive, similar to Lhose and Ifan and other than the dwarf, lizard or undead. And she has a killer instinct which is worth a lot if you have to kill regularly. And perhaps she is faster with her knife than me, so I better take her in my group instead of getting killed. That may be the thoughts my main has during the scene.

[Mr. Chives]

All valid points. Maybe I just have a low tolerence for the whole "It doesn't matter who you are. I'ma kill you cause you saw me look at a guy" thing. To the point where I have a hard time conceiving a character with combat experience not taking that as a clear signal that it's murder o' clock.

[Serrassi Effect]

She is like a wild animal, a predator stalking her prey and you just happen to catch her off guard. Instincts take over and it takes her a moment to decide if you are a threat or not.

If you talk to her on the ship, she is a lot more playful and friendly.

Not everyone wants to play the lawful good paladin.

i kill her every time... is no reason to spare her she's threatening me she needs to die...

[Premier666]

I think she sort pairs up well in terms of personality with the red prince. He seems the kind of crazy megalomaniac that would want her working with/for him, and arrogant enough to think that he could put her down if needed with easy.

[Lethal Ghost]

>>> She proves herself strong and capable
She attacks member of skilled party (more skilled than she).
Couldn't even make a step.

Mostly agree with OP.

It depends on how you play your character.
You could sympathise with her after what she's been through.

Why take the Red Prince? He is clearly a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ who thinks of you as a slave.
Why take Lohse? She is obviously nuts and dangerous to have around with that demon in her head.

That leaves Ifan, but who can trust a Lone Wolf assassin on a mission?

Why take anybody at all from a rp point of view?

Yep, all true.

"Allies of circumstance" might be the best way to describe their joining your party. You need to survive the horrors of Fort Joy, so why wouldn't you take every asset at your disposal when you've nothing else to lose but your life ?

Even the fellowship of the ring was formed by an eclectic bunch of grumpy guys with their own agenda and view on the matter in the first place, when you think about it.

Think of it as Suicide Squad 2.0, idk x)
