During the Main Quest in Skyrim the player must attend a party at the Thalmor Embassy (Diplomatic Immunity). As part of the Quest the PC must cause a distraction. While there are twelve people who can be enticed to cause a distraction, not all of them are present in every game.

 

However, having played through this Quest many times I have achieved a strong preference as to who to involve (Erikur). I was curious as to whether others had any such sense of how to approach this Party.

I hate this quest so much I cheat, when arriving I spam the dialogue with Elenwyn then I Get her pregnant so when I meet her at the peace conference she has a big belly to go with her Big mouth.

But I always use Razelan because he is the only one there worth talking to.

Razelan every time.

Mostly because he does a good job and I never tried someone else after that.

With so many mods installed that can interfere (and break the vanilla quest in the process), I'm always happy to get out of the ballroom as soon as possible.

(Maybe because I can imagine how I might appear after drinking too much? xD)

So, I suppose I had better explain my choice (Erikur). To do so let me preface this by saying that my games always include Paradise Halls, HSH and AYGAS. Thus, by choosing Erikur I free two people (Malborn and Brelas) from the Thalmor. This allows me to later enslave them both after killing the Thalmor assassin in Windhelm. So, it's about the greatest gain (certainly not the most interesting dialogue).

I generally used Erikur for similar reasons. I did not use the various slavery mods that cloned NPCs, so I would lose them once I cleared the way for them to leave Skyrim. Storywise though they both did not seem to want to be spies so getting them out of the situation worked for me.

 

Having 2 following NPCs or 3 did not matter much going through the troll cave or if a dragon attacked when leaving the cave so I did not see a downside.

I would say Razelan because most of the other characters do not appear if one sides with the Stormcloaks and elect to assassinate Ondolemar (preferably using Frenzy Poison to make him force his own guard escort to kill him in self-defense) while one who always does show up, Erikur, pointlessly destroys a serving elf's career just to create a distraction.
