What would be another good word for such behavior?
If it was a zombie, you could do a play with 'biting us in the ass.'

Sounds good.

Yeah, I get that, it just sends the wrong image to me. Biting us in the ass is good though. Even if it's only some of us who keep our brains there.

I can totally see that dialogue work:
"Don't want it biting us in our asses."
"Heads."
"Whatever."

ROFL, adding those lines to Rowinda's quest, seems appropriate

I did some quest-failing testing in regards to Vaelis' personal quest. Now I'm a bit puzzled: (This is a BIG spoiler, please do not read if you haven't done the quest every which way. (or if you do, don't accuse me )
Spoiler:
If you succeed in the whole thing or succeed in the first fight, it's made clear that the rebels have come to kill Vaelis' family as well and they've already seen him with Morran at that point.
Now, when I deliberately lost the first fight they never split up and go and try to kill Morran and the twins. There's a few of them in the woods, why don't they go try to finish what they think Vaelis' family is while the others take their time failing at bonfire making? Or is this a case of changed reality? If you "choose to fail" the first fight, the reality changes and these rebels were only coming after Vaelis and no one else?

Alrighty, thanks for the clarification. Now I never have to do that again.

On Chalassa's Quest:
Spoiler:
Not so simple were two other questions: Which room did Sir Ormond reside in, and how did I get inside?
> I think it should be "how will I get inside?" or something in the present tense, though not sure exactly what to preserve the same meaning. Present tense because the way it is now implies at this point in the flashback she had already made it inside, but the next two lines contradict that:
Althea: You mean, which way?
Chalassa: No. How much blood was I going to spill on the way? <- blood hasn't been spilled just yet
Liberty Challenge:
Spoiler:
Should I be, Chalassa. <- should be a question mark, no?
Jariel's Deadly Trap:
Bard setup a trap that hits single target for 20% of the total HP -> Bard sets a trap that hits a single target for 20% of their total...

Which for the record, seems to hit for 20% of their current health...
