Encountering a diverse cast of NPCs in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, ranging from friendly to hostile, can be challenging. Determining their intentions isn't always straightforward. This guide focuses on the Wandering Drunk.
Locating the Wandering Drunk
The Wandering Drunk resides in an abandoned barn situated north of Semine, slightly off the main pathways. While approaching from the north, you'll encounter a herdsman who warns about a hostile vagrant nearby. Entering the barn's vicinity reveals a beggar NPC outside; he'll turn aggressive if you get too close. Currently, meaningful interaction beyond combat (killing or incapacitating him) seems impossible. After defeating him, loot his corpse for a gemstone ring, keys, and approximately 2.7 groschen. The barn itself also contains additional lootable items.
The Mystery of the Keys
The game provides no clues regarding the Wandering Drunk's identity. He might be reminiscent of a similar beggar NPC from the first game, a vagrant with no associated quests. He likely represents someone who lost their home and family, with the keys serving merely as narrative detail. Many NPCs in the game carry keys with unknown purposes, suggesting the same is true for the Wandering Drunk.
