The evil mastermind (alignment thread)

[Lord Lorac Silvanos]

It has the worst odds, but the most emotional appeal.

"If I'm probably going to go down anyway, I'd rather go down fighting." is not an uncommon sentiment by any means.

Option 2 offers better chances for survival of the voters and the badass option risks your life.

If you care about the lives of the other captives, want to save them all, but still want to be a badass the sensible thing would be to go for 2 and then kill the doom guards after the prisoners have been brought to safety or are being executed.
