Neverwinter Nights 2: Mask of the Betrayer Hints
How are things different if I have One of Many with me?
1 of 17: One of Many will want to devour Myrkul's spirit to empower himself.
2 of 17: When he asks to do so, you'll have to make your decision right then whether or not you want to devour Myrkul or let One of Many do it.
3 of 17: If you refuse to do either one, you won't be able to devour Myrkul later by talking to him again. (Though you will be able to use Eternal Rest on him if you have that feat.)
4 of 17: One bad side effect of doing either of the devour options is that you won't be able to prepare for the fight with the knights.
5 of 17: You'll have take control of your fastest character and run him over to the exit portal, hoping you can make it before anyone gets killed. If so, you'll be able to go back and finish off the knights at your leisure.
6 of 17: As for the effects of the devouring options, devouring Myrkul yourself will lose you a lot of influence with One of Many. Other than that, it works the same as if you didn't have him along.
7 of 17: If you let One of Many devour Myrkul, you'll gain a whole lot of influence with him, but you won't get any of the benefits of devouring Myrkul yourself.
8 of 17: However, that can be worth it, especially since the Ravenous Incarnation feat isn't all that useful, and Myrkul's essence isn't useful at all.
9 of 17: The next time you talk to One of Many after letting him devour Myrkul, he'll say to talk to him again when you're alone.
10 of 17: TIP: Since you'll have to talk to everyone else and dismiss them before you can have this special conversation, you should wait to do so until after you get back to Mulsantir.
11 of 17: After everyone else is dismissed, talk to One of Many again and choose to speak to the new voice.
12 of 17: It'll turn out to be Myrkul, who sees this as an opportunity to be reborn.
13 of 17: He'll take over One of Many, super-size him, and then attack you.
14 of 17: You'll need to beat the Myrkul-ized One of Many down to near-death status, at which time he'll talk to you again.
15 of 17: At that point, you can choose to devour him in order to get the One of Many essence item, or you can refrain from devouring him in order to keep him as a companion.
16 of 17: If you decide to keep him, choose the dialogue option about watching him in order to gain some more influence with him.
17 of 17: Try talking to him again to see if you can get the Greater Negative Aura feat from him. (You will if your influence is high enough.) That feat gives a lot of good bonus effects, along with a negative effect to your Diplomacy skill.
