Our confusion was trying to figure out the consequences of the failed test. From what I’ve read from others, his “free will” is in deciding whether he will take the Stand & Drool or invoke I Must Have It!. If he takes I Must Have It, then he must do EVERYTHING in his power to gain possession. If the player doesn’t wish his character to have to go to such extreme measures, then he needs to take Stand & Drool. Right?
