Hello would you like to do an rp together?

Yeah sorry for the delay had to charge my phone.

I actually like the idea of her being cared for

May I please join the babying portion of the game

I am perfectly willing to accept Minx or the party decision isn't always right and the others are going to be part of things, I'm well aware how things work in a table top RPG. I'm planning on waiting on lord fluff, like you said. And the other players can do what they want, I merely asked for a heads up for next time in my post.

The issue is Seela is useful only to convince to get out of the cribs and is unable to be reasoned with in any other manner. The whole information gathering is moot when we are told up front she doesn't have to tell us the truth or lie, which means we can ask all we want and have no IC reason to trust it. Getting her to let us go or convincing her we're not a threat is blindingly simple like you said, baby talk and regression.

It just seems like the options in this whole section boil down to do as the dungeon wants, anything else is going to get you punished.

I really don't mean to tell you how to DM, but Seela is not doing very much to be anything but a road block. She doesn't understand the fact jumping people with random plushie animals tends to make them fight back, and her comparisons are stretching things at best, and seem disconnected at worst, plus asking them questions is now a useless endevour since she just told them she doesn't have to tell them the truth. So like... what are we supposed to do here? Just sit and beg to be let go?

Heh, I imagine. She's just very, very opposed to getting younger and being totally helpless. We'll see if that changes over time.

Not trying to be difficult in character with Minx by the way, she's just not going to surrender right away.

That would probably do it, though in my defense, Aurelia chose that door because it was the most thematic, and she thought it was a puzzle. Not because it would've been the most/least dangerous.

It's convention. Other TTRPG games on this site feature encounters where hack & slash is a viable strategy.
