rustinpeace91: I just started playing this game. It's hard as hell, but I do like the atmosphere. My character kind of sucks, I'll probably make a new one soon but I want to get as far as I can with this one for a bit.

here's the thing. I was asked to join house Aurulean after talking to Domitus Ulpius. I hadn't really learned enough about the factions or the world and he seemed like kind of a dicks so I told him I'd consider it. but after traveling to Ganezzar I kind of realized that House Aurelian is the most sane of the bunch. I mean sure he's a dick who wants power but his mind seems mostly there and just makes the most sense for my character. However when I go back to talk to him I have no dialogue options. Is there any way I can take him up on his offer?

Also how can I make money other than the Arena and stealing things. I put most of my points in crafting and impersonation, but I put some in merchant too. Is there a way I can make some money using those skills?

Also can I drink in this game? It is about decadence after all.

Sunfire7: Nope, you lost the chance given to you by Gaelius. I suppose, your HA reputation is low enough also.
Just kill some bad dudes, loot their bodies and sell their stuff. I had over 10K gold in the end of the game. Pure fighter build w/o trading and such.
Your drinking is mentioned in some TA (Text Adventures) only, as far as I remember.

rustinpeace91: Is there a way I can get money without killing people? I really suck at combat. I beat two guys in the Arena but every combat I've entered I've been outnumbered and just ended up getting killed really badly.
