What to Do With Sauerkraut Pepa in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 (Cabbage Thief Quest Guide)

Embark on a variety of side quests in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, each presenting choices that significantly impact the fate of NPCs. This guide focuses on the Cabbage Thief quest and how to handle Sauerkraut Pepa.

How to Start the Cabbage Thief Quest in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Initiate the Cabbage Thief side quest by speaking with Bailiff Thrush in Troskowitz. He's usually found wandering the village during the day or within the tavern. Engage him in conversation, inquire about recent town events, and he'll reveal the cabbage thefts, directing you to the Grocer south of Troskowitz to begin the quest.

Cabbage Thief Location

Follow the trail of scattered cabbages leading towards Nebakov Fortress. This trail will guide you down a somewhat hidden river path. You'll discover a cart laden with cabbages, and just beyond, you'll find Sauerkraut Pepa, the culprit.

Should You Spare or Turn In Sauerkraut Pepa?

When confronting Sauerkraut Pepa, you face three options: spare him, kill him, or turn him in.

Sparing him yields a reward of sauerkraut; he'll even prepare more if you provide him with additional cabbages. Pepa's sauerkraut is a valuable, non-perishable food item providing substantial healing and nourishment.

Killing or turning him in grants 789 groschen from Bailiff Thrush.

The optimal choice depends on your immediate needs. If you prioritize healing items and find acquiring money relatively easy (e.g., through dice games), sparing Pepa might be advantageous.
