Gosh!  Another game I beta-tested...

Uh, mild spoilers follow... hit 'n' now to skip 'em...

I don't think so.  You can kiss him and smile at him all you want, but
I've never gotten him to join and I've never heard of him joining.

Heh.  Lock the druid guard in the manacles -- you must do this first.
It might take a couple of tries, but it's certainly worth it.  Once
the druid guard is incapacitated, beat the living hell out of the
chief torturer.  (S)he isn't going to do much damage with the whip,
save un-wielding your weapons for you.  Once (s)he is dead, just
dispose of the incapacitated druid guard.  (<-- good for raising
proficiencies.)

Gosh... it's been a while since I've played, but here's a suggestion...
Down in the southern part of level one there's a spiral passage.
Explore it.  Revealing hint: you might want the explorer to be wearing
the ring of levitation.

Cheers...
