Bohemond: There's one level above Friendly -> Helpful. In my mind the main difference beyond just degree of regard, is that while a Friendly person could be reasonably called upon to aid you, a Helpful person would proactively try to do good things for you without you asking. That's not to say that they'd do something out of their character, or personally dangerous without good reason, etc. They're still themselves.

Zorbeltuss: Could you declare an action for this round? I'll give another day or two before resolving and moving on. :)

Is this "hunt" supposed to be appalling provincial customs that the more cultured nobles closer to the capital finds utterly distasteful or is it commonly considered "We're nobles and serfs/criminals are animals anyway, tally ho!"?

Taldor is pretty set in its ways (or corrupt and decaying, depending on your view), so it really depends on the particular Noble or Faction in the Capital. But given the Princess' faction has been pushing for change, she likely finds such acts distasteful. But these people are theoretically criminals, so this isn't abusing law-abiding peasants.

I imagine there's another side to it, that there are people who think pardoning a criminal shouldn't be turned into a sport, in the case that one gets his pardon and becomes emboldened.

Picked up Kingmaker on 80% off on steam...went exploring, found The Manticore near the start, at level 2 and 4 man party. Google says full party and lvl 4 is probably when you can go kill it.

At least our party is at lvl 4, maybe not with six members.

Aye, Manticores are pretty dangerous. This one has a couple mods to make it slightly non-standard, but regardless they're no joke!

And I am making some considerations to the fact that you're a Party of 3, not the usual 4-6 adventurers that the AP assumes.

Hmm, unless we had some wand with cure spell on it for Mercutio to play field medic with, I'm not sure if there's too many good options other than screaming at the beastie again.

Hey, guaranteed damage is guaranteed damage. And a non-zero chance at Dazing, causing it to lose a round. That's nothing to sneeze at.

Quick question: There's no 'official' influencing that's occurring, besides Mercutio's freebies?

There's about to be. The upcoming victory dinner will give you 3 more Social Rounds to close out the day. But this is the open RP time before that, although what you say in RP could always affect your reputation. If you kick the Count in the balls outside of the Social Rounds, his opinion of you will go down regardless. :P
