Agreed in spirit. I'm curious what consequences there will be for making a deal with Auntie Ethel or giving Astarion Necromancy of Thay or letting yourself be branded. There's already a punishment for using the tadpole too much, so the potential is there. On the other hand, letting Volo operate on you can end up being strictly beneficial depending on your build... Either way, hopefully we'll have to suffer the fallout of all of our bad calls.
I feel like the scene with Voss was going for something like "I'm not going to waste my time cleaning up this trash, my minions are more than enough to deal with them". Which would work fine if he didn't just personally fry some Flaming Fist...
