Involvement

Act Three

Punkins plays with her friends on a small stone-paved space at X: -166 Y: -75. She and her two mates,  Cinnamon and  Slow-Butt, are standing near Golbraith's Home. She is pretending to be a Steel Watcher scanning Cinnamon and Slow-Butt, to check their 'records'.

If spoken to, Punkins tries to copy the automaton behavior, addressing party members as "citizen", imitating mechanical buzzes and sounds.

The party may then take part in children's game, agreeing or declining to be scanned. If Cinnamon is spoken with first and candy is detected in her pocket, they may rat the girl out to the "steel watcher", allaying suspicions from themselves.

Either option earns minor approval from  Karlach,  Jaheira,  Gale,  Wyll,  Minsc and  Halsin.
