Fast travel

When fast traveling you can come across Wayfarers. You may choose to ignore them or engage them. Engaging appears to have a 100% success rate. Escaping/Ignoring appears to not be guaranteed.

Attack on the Road

You will be ambushed if you choose to Avoid and fail. If you choose to Scout you may not actually have a chance to scout.

Beggars

Beggars will plead for coin. You cannot haggle with them, although this may be just a bug. There is one exception: Beggar who can sell you Shadowplay III

• Some Beggars have walked from Kuttenberg and request a strip of cloth to swathe their feet. Henry can:
  • I do have some, by chance
    • Give them 1 bandage
  • Wouldn't you rather have shoes?
    • Give them shoes
  • Penitents are supposed to go barefoot
    • The beggar is upset
  • Unfortunately, I do not
    • The beggar apologizes for bothering you.
  • I don't, but here are some alms
    • Give them 1
• Some unmarried women, with a child and a murdered husband, beg for food at the side of the road.
  • Give something to eat
    • Open inventory to give them a food item
  • I'd give you something if I had it
  • Give 5 in alms
    • Give them 5
  • Why don't you join the Rattay refugees?
  • I'll give you nothing.

Carcass on the Road

This encounter will spawn either a dead wayfarer or a dead game animal on the road in a puddle of blood. You can loot the body, but any items will be marked as stolen. When you approach the body, an NPC, who may be a trader or villager, will approach you and accuse you of killing the corpse.

Faint-hearted Knight

Sir Olbram of Losiny isn't exactly the best knight, but his mother told him to go out and duel maidens and save bandits (or something), so that's what he's going to do.

Trader

A trader approaches Henry and offers him a treasure map for 80 , non-negotiable. If Henry asks where he got the map from and why doesn't he get the treasure himself, he will reply that he looted the map on a dead trader's wagon he stumble upon, and that he is too afraid of the forests with the current state of the realm to get the treasure. Buying the map gives a reputation boost.

Lost Trader

A trader will ask for directions, giving him the correct direction will result in you gaining reputation.

Mercenaries

You may encounter a Mercenary. This Wayfarer will offer you the opportunity to duel as a wager. If you win, you will receive the waged sum. If you lose, you will forfeit your coin.

• Who are you anyway?
  • Loops back
• Alright
  • Accept bet
    • Henry will place his bet and the two fight.
  • I'm not going to wager.
    • The fight is cancelled.
• That's not for me
  • The fight is cancelled.

Poachers

This Wayfarer will sell you meat. You may also attempt a Speech check to get some Groschen from them rather than turning them in for their crimes. Finally, you may report them for poaching.

  • ???
• I'm not interested
  • ???

The Riddler

The Riddler (no, not that one) bets that Henry will not solve his riddles, and is willing to bet 5 that you'll get the answer wrong.

	Don't you fret, very few people can solve my riddles.
- The Riddler

Treasure Hunters

A wayfarer will offer to sell you a treasure map for 80 .

• Treasure map XIV
• Treasure map XXIV

Wayfaring Knight

Usually found at a crossroad or along the length of any main road you can take between large settlements, the Wayfaring Knight is a honourable man who will gladly duel you for honor. This man is the very opposite of Olbram, the Fainted-hearted Knight, in that he actually knows how to fight well, and is indeed just as well, if not better, armoured than him. He will fight with a Merchant's sword (longsword).
