>3: This could be a trap, and you shouldn't make a decision either way until you discount that possibility. Go to a safe distance and scout out the area. As you're doing that call Reggie and Bambino to you, the rest will probably figure out something is wrong and come with them as backup. Once they get there have them look at this person's stats. After all of that is done, don't be hasty. Think about the information you have, confer with the others, and take appropriate precautions for whatever the situation is.

Edit: I wanted to put in the reasoning for this command, and why I want to do this first.

The reason I want to take distance and scout is to see if there are any monsters within sight nearby. This might be a distraction to set up an ambush, and taking stock of your surroundings would prevent that. This also puts us in a better position for a retreat if there is in fact something we should be worried about.

The reason I want to do this part first is because literally everything else can be done from a distance, but can't be done if we fall prey to a sneak attack.

I personally believe we should do things that minimize the chances of death first, then do other stuff later if we can help it. Things are hard to do when you're dead after all.

If this is real we profit from the situation. If this is NOT real then we profit by getting resources from the person behind the situation.

Right now I'm thinking if this turns out to be legit and she's somebody worth saving we cut off the threads with ranged abilities and blast some air behind her to move her away from the location, then keep some distance from her and look her over once again. And also have Emily do her perfect heal thing just in case. We can also try issuing a command to her once we've gotten more information and see if that does anything. It's not conclusive if we can't, but if we can we know she's somebody we want to keep around.

However, there is one key thing we have to remember at all times: this person might be UE if we can't give her a command. Again, it's not conclusive if we can't but it's certain not to be the case if we can. UE previously impersonated Daydream so at the very least we know they can appear as another. The solution to this conundrum is to never EVER give this person fort access. We can make them a little house where they can be safe while letting us keep an eye on them, but no fort access until we have proof that they're not UE.
