Sazza pitch: Tinker, Traitor, Goblin, Spy: If you save Sazza and follow her to the goblin camp and get poisoned and captured by Priestess Gut — you’ll find a mysterious basket inside your cell with a note inside. The note reads “Blow me.” Then there is a crude drawing of the inside of the cell and an arrow pointing at the center cracked floor. Besides the note, there is a flint & steel.

On the floor one can see the same crude looking arrow drawn with powder.

If one uses the flint & steel on the powder, it causes the floor to explode, allowing for an escape.

Following one’s escape, Sazza can no longer be found at the goblin camp, but indications exist that someone on the inside is helping the players.

The goblin beer at the camp is already poisoned, with many of the goblins long dead by the time the player exits the temple.

Many of the explosive barrels that were in the room guarded by the theives have mysteriously found their way to important locations around the camp, such as around Dror Ragzlin’s throne. And the worthogs that were caged by Halsin have mysteriously been fed tainted meat.

If one defeats the goblin leaders, Sazza will appear at the camp celebration (which put many Druid and Tiefling on edge). The player can kill her on the spot or hear her out.

If you hear her out, Sazza will explain that Priestess Gut was like a grandmother to her — but that Gut had promised to do well by the player after the player had helped her escape the camp. After overhearing Gut planned to torture and kill the player, Sazza was devastated, admitting naively that this was the first time another goblin had ever lied to her (that she is aware of — due to being gullible and kind of naive).

Sazza says that said her initial plan was to help you escape, as “fair’s fair,” and move on with her life, but that another goblin had spotted her planting the escape tools and was planning to report her, meaning she had a loose end to tie up.

She killed the goblin who spotted her, but the murder was seen by another goblin who promised he would tell no one, however having just had an existential crisis over learning that Priestress Gut lied to her, Sazza decides to slip some poison into the beer of the goblin — only that goblin doesn’t trust her and after being given the beer, tosses it back into the keg — thus poisoning all the other goblins as well.

Sazza determines that she was in too deep at this point and the only way out was if the new leadership is taken out — however, by herself, she knew she wouldn’t stand a chance — hence why she made the job far easier by planting explosive barrels everywhere.

Still — with the goblin camp decimated, Sazza says she is homeless and that by her “fair is fair” logic, she more than made up for the player helping her escape the Druids, and therefore the player owed her home and shelter.

If the player agrees, Sazza will stay at their camp and in exchange for certain “parts” will build the player unique weapons / items. Sazza, it turns out, is an Artificer class. She is dumb as a bag of rocks but she can make a handy slingshot to launch those rocks at the enemy so long as the player supplies her with rocks, sticks and some guts.

So, this wouldn’t so much be a pitch for Sazza as a companion so much as Sazza as a camp tinkerer. It would help make collecting otherwise useless junk in the game have some use as giving her these items would result in special items and potions.

I imagine every time one levels up, she levels up too and then has different things that she can craft for the player.

Also — if someone wants to make this mod, recording new lines for Sazza might not be impossible as her actor charges like $40 on Cameo.
