Talk:Lady Boyle/@comment-68.103.237.183-20130118211206

My favorite outcome for the Lady Boyle mission was as follows:

I entered the estate from the building next door.

I did the courtyard duel in a non lethal fashion.

I eliminated all outside guards in a non lethal manner.

I entered the party and exhausted the dialogues of all the guests except the sisters, Brisby and Miss White.

Next I slipped past the guard on the stairs and immobilized the city watch on the second floor. I looted all items upstairs.

Then I set up the optional scenario with Lord Brisby.

I brought a drink to Miss White and got her clue.

Esma was revealed as the target.

I observed the pathing route of Esma.

The small bathroom is where I decided to wait for Lady Boyle.

Esma responded with some talk about what a strange man was doing in her bathroom. I offered Esma a drink and she said she was seeing two of me already. I asked her who was wearing which costume and she revealed the identities. I asked for a tour of the upstairs and she said yes. I joined Esma for the trip upstairs and the guards let me by because I was escorted so no trespassing message was received.

Of course Miss White tried to stick by me but I closed the doors to the bathroom and to the bedroom upstairs to keep her at a distance.

Esma mentioned that she wished to be free of the Lord Regent and only helped him to preserve her own safety. She also stated that she would prefer a dark and mysterious figure like me. I took this as a clue that she was conversant in the Outsider arts and this theory seemed confirmed when she later sent me a thank you note with a rune. In the bedroom she made suggestive remarks but of course I could not respond because the game does not go there. In a while she got bored and decided to return to the party. At this point I did a non lethal immobilization and left her resting on her bed.

Next I used a non lethal means on Lady White who was on the staircase and left her resting in the bathtub.

Finally I incapacitated the hall guard and the 4 kitchen maids and left them upstairs. The maids were a challenge without time stop because they kept going in and out of the kitchen and taking long breaks.

At that point I carried Lady Boyle down to a waiting Lord Brisby. To tidy things up I went downstairs and did a pickpocket on all the guests and guards and picked up all valuables in the main rooms and ate and drank more party favors. I mingled with the guests for a time. I signed the guest book and then left the estate.
