Emotions will be displayed as: text {emotion} Dereg is a strong man who likes to help others. He is worried for the Olux Swamp that he lives in, requesting the help of the player to save them. He says he saw the large beast, but no one will believe him. Tolem is a farmer who is set on working to live. His cow pen was destroyed by the beast and he wants his cows. He has an anger problem and struggles with loss. Kroac is an older, experienced man who used to be a carpenter. His house was destroyed by the beast and is unable to fix his own house alone. Rileen is a hunter who is fighting to protect his town from the beast. He knows light amounts of first aid and humans leave a bad taste in his mouth. [1/7] Dereg: Oh, you look tough. You must be one of those humans I keep hearing about, right? People talk about your kind all the time. {Light Interest} [2/7] Dereg: You know, that you're all scrappers. Tough as nails, and willing to kill all sorts of beasts, you know? {Explanatory} [3/7] Dereg: I think you know what I'm getting at. I saw some massive thing lumbering around the swamp one night! Tall as the trees, it was. {Excited Explanation} [4/7] Dereg: I couldn't make out the details, but if its size was any indication, it could just step over the Olux walls and wreck the whole town! {Excited Explanation} [5/7] Dereg: Of course, there's so many scam artists around here trying to sell anti-monster underwear or whatever that no one believes me. {Dismissive Explanation} [6/7] Dereg: So, that means it's up to you! Ehm, supposing that you're willing to help out, at least... The one thing I know for sure is that it was eating something. {Excited, Unsure, Normal} [7/7] Dereg: See the blood on the ground? That stuff is fresh. Follow it, see where it leads, and hunt that beast before it does something terrible! {Normal, Hurried Concern} --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [1/9] Tolem: Oh, this is such a mess! And my axe is busted, too...how am I going to get this fixed?! {Annoyed/Slight Anger} [2/9] Tolem: I can't pay for- AAAH! H-Human! What do you want?! Not a good time! {Annoyed, Scared} [3/9] Tolem: Something destroyed my cow pen and wrecked up my entire farm! {Angry Explanation} [4/9] Tolem: And they were solid, good-quality Willow, too...uff... {Reminiscent Though} [5/9] Tolem: Wait, what? You're hunting the thing? Well, that's fine and dandy, but do you think you could help here first? {Questioning} [6/9] Tolem: I have an idea of where it went, so...you scratch my back, I scratch yours? {Normal, Questioning} [7/9] Tolem: Okay, this can work, this can work! I have to figure out how to fix this, and some of my cows ran off in a panic. {Excited, Normal} [8/9] Tolem: So, you can take care of them while I re-plan my fencing. Simple enough, right? {Normal} [9/9] Tolem: Three of my cows ran off. Look around the farm for them. They were eating, so look for fallen wheat on the ground! {Normal, Excited} --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [1/11] Tolem: Oh, back already? I haven't even finished my stuff, where are the cows? {Surprised, Inquiring} [2/11] Tolem: ... {Silence} [3/11] Tolem: ...eheh. You. You're. This is a joke, right? We're having a chuckle?! {Thinking Stutter, Anger} [4/11] Tolem: WE'RE JOKING, RIGHT?! FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT'S HOLY TELL ME THIS IS A JOKE! {Anger} [5/11] Tolem: WHAT IS THIS?! ARE YOU BRAINDEAD?! {Aggressive} [6/11] Tolem: NO, WAIT, YOU'RE HUMAN, THAT'S THE PROBLEM! IDIOT THUGS, ALL OF YOU! {Aggressive/Anger} [7/11] Tolem: DID I NEED TO SPECIFY THAT I WANTED THEM BACK ALIVE? WAS THAT NOT OBVIOUS TO YOU?! {Talking Down/Anger} [8/11] Tolem: Hff...haah...hrrgh...I...I can't bellevue...bellevue? Believe! I can't believe this! {Breathless, Annoyed} [9/11] Tolem: Uff, settle down, Tolem, settle down...you can still salvage this... {Mumbling to Self} [10/11] Tolem: Alright, two things. Your new name is Idiot, and I'm changing our deal. You owe me [10 Willow Planks]. {Aggressive} [11/11] Tolem: You're going to help me get at least one thing around here working. You get the wood, I'll keep looking over the fencing. {Aggressive, Self-Important} --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [1/4] Tolem: Oh lovely. Idiot's back! Joy of joys. Willow planks, please. {Sarcastic} [2/4] Tolem: Good. Even if you've got murder on the mind constantly, you have decent woodcutting arms. {Back-handed Compliment} [3/4] Tolem: I'll sell the remainder of these planks to try and recoup the money for my cows you mulched. {Normal} [4/4] Tolem: So go on, get out of here now. Make yourself useful and follow the giant footprints in the ground. Hunt something that NEEDS hunting, instead of cattle! {Normal, Slight Aggression} --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [1/1] Kroac: Oh, I'll never be able to fix this with my back in this state... {Normal} --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [1/6] Kroac: Oh, look at this...all my years of carpentry and my bad back does my poor house in. {Normal} [2/6] Kroac: What on earth could have done this?! It must be the biggest beast in the swamp! {Loud Questioning} [3/6] Kroac: I was just sitting inside having some dinner, I hear some rumbling, and suddenly my house is falling apart! {Annoyed Explaining} [4/6] Kroac: You human folk are good with physical labor, I hear? Do you think you could help me out here? {Inquisitive} [5/6] Kroac: There's a mine just over there. Think you can get [10 Cobblestone] out of it? {Explanatory, Inquisitive} [6/6] Kroac: I'll go find someone who's selling any spare wood for the roof... {Trailing-off Thought} --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [1/5] Kroac: Did you get enough cobblestone? I found a guy down the street selling this top-quality Willow... {Normal} [2/5] Kroac: Good, perfect. That should be enough. Though, I do have one other thing to ask you, soldier. {Sincere, Worried Questioning} [3/5] Kroac: My back's already screaming at me just from lugging the wood over here, there's no way I can climb up there and fix the roof like this. {Quilty Explanation} [4/5] Kroac: I can compensate you for the trouble, but d'you think you could do some patchwork for me with that cobble? {Normal} [5/5] Kroac: Oh, you're a saint. Can't imagine why the guy was grumbling about humans... Just climb right on up the ladder! {Thought, Excited Explanation} --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [1/3] Kroac: That'll do just fine, kind soldier! You're a lifesaver, really, you are. {Sincere Excited Complimenting} [2/3] Kroac: Wait, you're going after the thing that did this? Really?! Fantastic! That's a load off my mind. {Surprised Questioning, Surprised, Excited} [3/3] Kroac: Looks like there's tracks off to the east...big tracks. Good luck following it, stay safe! {Normal, Motivational} --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [1/2] Rileen: EVERYONE, MOVE! THE BEAST IS ON A RAMPAGE! {Ordering} [2/2] Rileen: Aah, no! There were people in that house! {Worry} --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [1/7] Rileen: Wah! H-Human! Get away, there's nothing you can help with here! {Scared, Agitation} [2/7] Rileen: All your type does is break and hurt! You have more in common with the giant there than any of us! {Aggression} [3/7] Rileen: Aah, there's so many people hurt already, don't make it worse, please! {Concern} [4/7] Rileen: We don't even have any medicine... {Talking to Self} [5/7] Rileen: Ugh, think Rileen! You have the herbs, what else goes into those poultices... {Annoyance, Talking to Self} [6/7] Rileen: Oh, right! Fish oil...but I don't have a rod, gah! {Guilt Tripping Self} [7/7] Rileen: There's no way I can get [10 Salmon Oil], even if that pond out back is teeming with fish... {Regret} --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [1/7] Rileen: No, there's no time to make a fishing spear- AAH! You're still here? What do you WANT?! {Thought, Surprise, Aggression} [2/7] Rileen: W-wait, what's...is this... This is salmon oil! Ten bottles of it! You...you heard me talking? {Confusion, Excitement, Embarrassment} [3/7] Rileen: And you went out of your way to... What kind of a human are you? I've only ever heard horror stories about your kind. {Realization, Wonder} [4/7] Rileen: ... {Silence} [5/7] Rileen: ...maybe you're not so bad. I don't have anything that I can give you in return, but thank you, still. {Normal, Genuine Thanks} [6/7] Rileen: Wait, you were chasing the giant? That's why you were here? That...that's amazing news! {Surprised Questioning, Excitement} [7/7] Rileen: I think it went into the cave east of here. Go for it! Stop that thing before it causes any more damage! {Normal, Motivational Excitement} --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [1/7] Dereg: You're back! Any luck hunting the thing down? {Greeting} [2/7] Dereg: What? You actually found the beast?! Heck of a hunting job, human! {Surprised, Compliment} [3/7] Dereg: You wouldn't be back here if you didn't manage to kill it… which means our problems are solved, right? {Thinking Out Loud, Question} [4/7] Dereg: Heheh! That bone powder looks giant enough to me! Great job, bucko! {Admiration, Compliment} [5/7] Dereg: Y'know, come to think of it, I remember something that might be interesting to your sort. {Mysterious Excitement} [6/7] Dereg: The weapon merchant in Olux researches cryptids as a hobby, and that beast seemed one-of-a-kind to me. {Clearly} [7/7] Dereg: You should show him that bone powder! He might have some good gear for you. {Clearly}
