Help for RP

[TheHiddenOne]

Hello everyone!

I restarted playing CoC2 a while ago but am lacking progress, since I keep restarting.
I usually tend to either play very corrupt characters or fully uncorrupt characters.

But here come my issues:
When it comes to demons I have actually trouble justifying sparing them. Because they spread corruption, even if they don't actually want to.
Which is probably partly because Computer (and Tabletop) games ingrained my antipathy towards demons (and devils).

Yes, I know, porn is its reward and I want to justify it in part to get railed by Sandre into Caera, but it does tend to make me lose interest into the character because the RP that motives me feels.. broken.

I have trouble finding a good RP justification for a pure character to do the following:
Dominate the Alraune
Being in a non-hostile relationship with Kas (is it still locked after WC?)
Letting Farrah stay
Not killing and even engaging with Sandre and Caera
Inviting them to the Wayfort

Related is the question how to justify (corrupt or not) to not take the Wayfort from Ryn. It seems just so.. win-win.

Thanks for reading.
P.S. I don't want to be a murderhobo, I really want reasons - or even jsut excuses- to engage with them.

Play the game how you want. Don't try to force yourself to take actions you don't want to. I don't think its muderhoboing to kill demons. In the spirit of your post, I'll go ahead and answer how I deal with things in CoC II.

For the Alrune and Farrah, I view it as you are keeping an eye on them. Farrah is only really in it for the money and the Alrune quickly becomes better socialized.

For Kas that is a bit tricker. Kas is a great oppositional villain and the game play really well as her being a straight antagonist, or you could try to enter a relationship with her which opens up a more nuanced relationship. Even though I choose to romance Kas, that does not mean that I even remotely approve of her actions, and I still try to stop her.
