The list of topics you can discuss with this person. You may need to scroll down to reveal additional options. Asking about certain topics

Sometimes you need to get information from a character. Special dialogue options will appear including:

persuasion.

Bribe: Coax a character into talking with a sum of gold.
Brawl: Engage in a stght with the character; win and get the information you need. While neither of you can die in a stght, if
