    The mentor would get angry at some of the feats Rowan bought instead healing: Mentor: "You spent 4 perk points on increased looting? Why did you need the ability to bribe guards to ignore crimes when I trained you to be a hero? What possible use would a hero have for the ability to hurt people by pickpocketing poisons into their inventory? Did I... did I waste the final time of my life training a criminal who will plague this land? Oh goodness, and I'll be his first victim..." Rowan: "Eh, not first. There were some people with good loot right next to wounded animals. Kill a person for their loot, reputation drops, help an animal, reputation goes back up. Just make sure you keep high enough reputation for the guards to not attack you."
