I just started playing this game. It's hard as hell, but I do like the atmosphere. My character kind of sucks, I'll probably make a new one soon but I want to get as far as I can with this one for a bit.

here's the thing. I was asked to join house Aurulean after talking to Domitus Ulpius. I hadn't really learned enough about the factions or the world and he seemed like kind of a dicks so I told him I'd consider it. but after traveling to Ganezzar I kind of realized that House Aurelian is the most sane of the bunch. I mean sure he's a dick who wants power but his mind seems mostly there and just makes the most sense for my character. However when I go back to talk to him I have no dialogue options. Is there any way I can take him up on his offer?

Also how can I make money other than the Arena and stealing things. I put most of my points in crafting and impersonation, but I put some in merchant too. Is there a way I can make some money using those skills?

Also can I drink in this game? It is about decadence after all.

Nope, you lost the chance given to you by Gaelius. I suppose, your HA reputation is low enough also.
Just kill some bad dudes, loot their bodies and sell their stuff. I had over 10K gold in the end of the game. Pure fighter build w/o trading and such.
Your drinking is mentioned in some TA (Text Adventures) only, as far as I remember.

AoD is really, really not about having a great character. If you're enjoying your game so far, just keep forging ahead. Remember the choices you make and choose differently next time.

The thing is, a character that "kind of sucks" can sometimes find things and see things that really great characters don't get to see.

Really? That blows. I feel like the game just threw all these choices at me before I had a chance to figure out what was going on. I mean I could make a new one and go with Gaelius, but that would kind of defeat the purpose of role playing as I'd be using knowledge I didn't have. Also if I knew how bad the House Crassus was I totally would have taken that guy up on his offer to kill some priests, but at the time he just looked like the leader of an angry mob. Is there a way I can get money without killing people? I really suck at combat. I beat two guys in the Arena but every combat I've entered I've been outnumbered and just ended up getting killed really badly.

Only by completing the quests then.
