Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 Captain Thomas

Early on, Henry and his companions will encounter Captain Thomas en route to the castle. Your goal: convince Thomas you carry a message for von Bergow.

You'll have these dialogue options:

Dialogue Option	Playstyle	Description
“I’m a soldier and Lord Capon’s bodyguard.”	Soldier	A combat-focused character with high strength and a short temper.
“I’m an adviser to a nobleman and an envoy.”	Adviser	A diplomatic character who relies on wit and persuasion.
“I’m the scout of our company.”	Scout	A stealth-oriented character skilled in covert operations.

The initial choice affects starting stats and playstyle. However, since many quests require more than combat, choosing "Adviser" is recommended. This boosts Persuasion and Charisma, beneficial for future interactions.

Following your introduction, maintain consistency with your chosen persona. Sticking to the "Adviser" narrative will ensure a successful interaction with Captain Thomas.

Even if you deviate, Hans will usually intervene, ensuring the story progresses normally.

That's how to convince Captain Thomas in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. Check The Escapist for more game guides and tips.
