=== With Speak with Animals === | |||
If the party investigated the spider carcass, they can detect a similar spell in Nessa's breath and can attempt to convince Nessa to turn against Yurgir by passing one of the following checks: | |||
* {{Dialogue option|The orthon sold you to me. I'm your master now.|roll=Deception|dc=16}} {{Approval|Astarion|-1}} {{Approval|Karlach|-1}} {{Approval|Wyll|-1}} {{Approval|Minthara|+1}} {{Approval|Halsin|-1}} | |||
* {{Dialogue option|You only love your master because he's been dosing this meat. He's manipulating you.|roll=Persuasion|dc=16}} {{Approval|Karlach|+1}} {{Approval|Astarion|+1}} {{Approval|Gale|+1}} {{Approval|Wyll|+1}} {{Approval|Halsin|+1}} {{Approval|Minthara|+1}} | |||
Curing Nessa of the spider carcass meat, using anything that removes {{Cond|Charmed}} or {{Cond|Poisoned}} conditions will also do the trick. | |||
Otherwise, the party can only have a discussion about master/slave relationships and her "love" of Yurgir. | |||
=== Without Speak with Animals === | |||
If spoken to without speak with animals, the party can only deduce that there is something off about the displacer beast: | |||
* {{Dialogue option|''Something doesn't seem quite right - take a closer look.''|roll=Nature|dc=16}} | |||
* {{Dialogue option|''Something doesn't seem quite right - take a closer look.''|tags=Druid, Ranger|roll=Nature|dc=16|advantage=y}} | |||
* {{Dialogue option|''Make eye contact with the beast.''|roll=Animal Handling|dc=16}} | |||
And then make another check for more clues, or pet the beast: | |||
* {{Dialogue option|''Give it a scratch behind the ears.''}} {{Approval|Karlach|+1}} {{Approval|Astarion|+1}} {{Approval|Wyll|+1}} {{Approval|Halsin|+1}} {{Approval|Shadowheart|+1}} {{Approval|Lae'zel|-1}} {{Approval|Gale|+1}} | |||
* {{Dialogue option|''Reach out to stroke one of its tentacles.''}} | |||
* {{Dialogue option|''Look around to see who it might be in love with.''|roll=Perception|dc=16}} | |||
* {{Dialogue option|''Check the ground for signs of other paw prints.''|roll=Investigation|dc=16}} | |||
