You seemed ruthless, and the fact that you wanted them dead made Marthius realize that you were going to kill them next. I think you overlooked my last post. The liquid that I mixed up from my post before the one you said, "Makes no sense." was going to heal them and wipe their memory, hence why I said, I'm going to heal them, and they will have no memory of this. Now, what did I do in my last post. Put that solution in the ale. I gave it to all 4 of us. But I gave an odd looking twig to Belzy, Lucid, and ate one myself and winked. That is what I thought would have been obviously an antidote, or something to make us immune to the concoction that I made. I made a way for us to make an escape in other words through trickery. In short, my passivism, a character flaw I've created for Marthius, is coming through. He would rather escape with trickery than engage in combat. With Dr. Jackal ignoring what was said in the previous post, Marthius, the coward he is, would see that in order to save the noblemen would require combat. Without the proof of my skills, would Dr. Jackal believe my skill as an alchemist? And in a tense situation like that, I would not be able to talk with civility to Dr. Jackal to show him that I could let them escape. However, I will concede that I probably should have given more of what was going through my mind in the post and will modify it in order to show how I came to my conclusion. Hopefully that would make the post easier to understand. But remember with Marthius, Diplomacy first, Trickery to aide in escape second, then if all else fails, will he engage in combat.
Oh and lastly, if the good doctor didn't kill and went along with my plan, I would have knocked the nobleman down a peg by sending him back to Flince to donate the majority of his riches to the poor as a punishment for his arrogance.
