Poison High Overseer Campbell
[]

This is the lethal option of eliminating Thaddeus Campbell. If Corvo poisons the High Overseer by switching the glasses on the table in the Meeting Room, then he cannot brand him as a heretic.

Non-lethal
Non-lethal
Brand Campbell as a Heretic
[]

This is the non-lethal option of eliminating Thaddeus Campbell. To brand the High Overseer as a heretic, Corvo cannot poison him. He must find the Heretic's Brand, spill the drinks in the Meeting Room and then follow Campbell and Curnow down to the Overseer's hidden chamber in the basement. Once there, Corvo must wait until Campbell draws his sword, then knock the man out before he kills Geoff Curnow. This way, Curnow knows that Corvo is on his side and does not attack him.

Once the Overseer is knocked out, Corvo must bring him back to the Interrogation Room and then brand him.
