They use the same hostility setting that you have. So unless you're an evil [nocando], you'll be fine in a town.
I do not See a "Hostility" Setting for My Char. Where is this Selected?
And What is [ nocando}?
Now in Beyond Divinity there was a "Selectable" setting for both Chars -Either 'Agressive" or "Normal" but I do not see that in Divine Divinity.
I had thought to just unleash about half dozen of them In Verdistis and "See" what happened. Guess NOTHING huh?
