MERLANCE's Research
« on: June 26, 2004, 03:16:30 PM »
I suppose youll split the thread if you decide to do something else, but...

Im at 48000 or so now Ive found some things.

@46486 = ~They are doing us a great service, my Baron.  I want everyone to treat them like... like... like pale, small-toothed, skinny fellow Sahuagin.  Yes.  Like that.~

@46498 = ~Sahuagin Treasury Key~
@46499 = ~Treasury Key~

@46530 = ~Peddler?  Bah -- I have no need of fools like yourself.  Good day.~

@46836 = ~What, you were actually going to ask me to play peek-a-boo?  For a supposedly smart <RACE>, you don't have much imagination with the eye jokes, do you?~

@47107 = ~Brus 'll be waiting for ye outside.  He's me nephew, an' he'll show you to the Copper Coronet.  Ye'll find work easily enough there, ye will.~

@47109 = ~When casting the reverse of healing spells (such as Cause Wounds) the priest must roll to hit the target, otherwise the spell is wasted.~
@47110 = ~A mage will lose 1 point of Constitution permanently if his familiar
dies.~

@47123 = ~This is a simple stuffed children's toy. It depicts the mischevious Littleman from halfling legend. ~
@47124 = ~This is a simple stuffed children's bear. It depicts the mischevious Littleman from halfling legend. ~

@47157 = ~This is a Planar Stone, an item of some power. The gem can open a lesser conduit between the planes for those that know how to use it. However, planar travel by this means isn't as safe as spells of similar nature. Raelis Shai from the Five Flagons Tavern in the Bridge District is said to desire the gem and will reward whomever brings it to her.~

@47177 = ~Lair of the Cult Outcasts~

@47199 = ~You're not an elf, and you're really short.  And you got hair on your feet.  What kind of person are you?~

@47201 = ~Have you never seen a halfling before, child?  Sweet Arvoreen, I didn't think that would be possible in this part of the world.~

@47205 = ~You look like an awfully mean person.  Mama says you can see a lot about someone by the shape of their face, and you got a mean shaped face, mister.~

@47207 = ~Comment on the shape of my face again, brat, and you'll quickly discover just how mean I can be!  (Observant little urchin, isn't he?)~

@47208 = ~We had lots of elves back home in the forests, but none like you.  Why is your skin so black?  Why aren't any of the other elves a pretty black like you?~

@47209 = ~That is more of a question than you know, child.  Suffice it to say that a tiny rivvin like yourself would not wish to meet more of my kind.~

@47211 = ~You're an elf!  We had lots of elves in the forest!  They were real nice.  I don't remember any of them being sad, though... why are you so sad?~

@47213 = ~Sad?  Oh... oh, what a darling boy you are.  I'm not that sad, really... it is not for a young boy such as you to worry about.  You should think of happier things.~

@47215 = ~Something strange up here. Be careful, this place has all manner of dangerous devices in it. I don't know what they do, but I know we would be safer if we shut them off.~

@47217 = ~We should look in that room to the west first, west and just a bit north. I think I saw some weapons in there.  It's a room off the corner of this one.~

@47220 = ~Do you smell that?  Smells like lightning, but indoors?  That can't be right.  I think I remember. Look to the right... the machine making the storm....~

@47313 = ~I see the desires of the flesh have their way even with you, <CHARNAME>.  This is good to see.  I was beginning to think your libido as barren as that of a northern monk's.~
@47314 = ~<CHARNAME>, my <PRO_LADYLORD>!  You cannot be seriously considering such a depraved practice!  You are...just looking for information...correct?~

@47335 = ~Vampire Blood~

@47381 = ~Sorry.  I don't serve your kind here, drow.  Get out.~
@47382 = ~I would be careful with that sharp tone, rivvin, lest you lose the tongue that shapes it.  Fortunately, I've no particular need of your slophouse and its stench of sweat.~

@47397 = ~Perhaps I did seek simpler things, but I meant no harm and thought I provided well enough. Please, I should go find my old home. Let us go.~

@47400 = ~I would not wish her inconvenience.  She is a good woman, and I will do what I can.  Perhaps I just wanted different things.  Come, I must find my old home.~

@47429 = ~Don't be stupid <CHARNAME>; I'm in no mood for a fight.  I'll give you some time to regain your senses.~

@47503 = ~(sigh) With Missus Patricia gone, I imagine reaction to my rhythmic efforts will become ever more violent.  Pity the poor mage that would sing with bards.~

@47706 = ~Found your way into the secret of places? What should we do with you?~
@47707 = ~Found your way to this place, did you? What, I wonder, drove you here?~
@47708 = ~Found your way to this place, did you? What, I wonder, drove you here?~
@47709 = ~Found your way to this place, did you? What, I wonder, drove you here?~

@48004 = ~It seems there are always more questions than answers.  Your captor, Irenicus, met your escape, though he was already in battle, bested, and taken by wizards in cowls of purple before you could do much of anything against him.  Worse still, Imoen was also taken, apparently for the 'crime' of using dangerous magics. Now you stand in the square of a great city, the bustle of commerce already absorbing the disturbance you witnessed.  You will have to determine what happened to both your missing friend, and the man that so callously used you.  What was this Irenicus that it took so many to subdue him? And what could *you* do if you found him again?  The uncertainty of your situation is unnerving. Hopefully the citizens of this place will prove friendly.~

@48013 = ~Keldorn dies defending Sir William.

Keldorn's odd sense of justice and honor forced him to defend Sir William, the very man whom his own wife has been betraying him with.     Now, the Lady Maria is not only an adultress, but a widow as well.~



@48015 = ~Keldorn returns to his wife and family.

After discovering that his wife, Maria, had taken up with another man during his long absences, Keldorn decided that it was he who was at fault...and sought a reconciliation. Keldorn promised to resign from the Order, and I urged him to spend a week with his family, rebuilding their relationship...after which Keldorn told me that I could find him at his estate once again.~

@48018 = ~Keldorn wishes to visit his wife and family.

Keldorn took vengeance upon the man with whom his wife had betrayed him.  As a result, Maria has left Keldorn and taken her children with him.  The knight is devastated, obviously...but claims he is ready to return to my company so he can forget about these events.~

And also, my thoughts on these things...

Quote
@46486 = ~They are doing us a great service, my Baron.  I want everyone to treat them like... like... like pale, small-toothed, skinny fellow Sahuagin.  Yes.  Like that.~

I just dont remember that line. Its probably there.

Quote
@46498 = ~Sahuagin Treasury Key~
@46499 = ~Treasury Key~

Which one is used?

Quote
@46530 = ~Peddler?  Bah -- I have no need of fools like yourself.  Good day.~

No idea

Quote
@46836 = ~What, you were actually going to ask me to play peek-a-boo?  For a supposedly smart <RACE>, you don't have much imagination with the eye jokes, do you?~

Another line thats probably there, but I dont remember

Quote
@47107 = ~Brus 'll be waiting for ye outside.  He's me nephew, an' he'll show you to the Copper Coronet.  Ye'll find work easily enough there, ye will.~

If the original location of all the quest givers was the CC... was this changed, perhaps? I thought Brus would take ou wherever you needed to be

Quote
@47109 = ~When casting the reverse of healing spells (such as Cause Wounds) the priest must roll to hit the target, otherwise the spell is wasted.~
@47110 = ~A mage will lose 1 point of Constitution permanently if his familiar

The loading screen messages? I cant quite place these otherwise

Quote
@47123 = ~This is a simple stuffed children's toy. It depicts the mischevious Littleman from halfling legend. ~
@47124 = ~This is a simple stuffed children's bear. It depicts the mischevious Littleman from halfling legend. ~

The description of Littleman says "bear", not toy, in game.

Quote
@47157 = ~This is a Planar Stone, an item of some power. The gem can open a lesser conduit between the planes for those that know how to use it. However, planar travel by this means isn't as safe as spells of similar nature.

Planar stone. its on the unknown items list.

Quote
@47177 = ~Lair of the Cult Outcasts~

NO clue. is it on the automap or something?

Quote
@47199 = ~You're not an elf, and you're really short.  And you got hair on your feet.  What kind of person are you?~

@47201 = ~Have you never seen a halfling before, child?  Sweet Arvoreen, I didn't think that would be possible in this part of the world.~

The gypsy boy in Trademeet interacting with characters. I dont recall any of these ever coming up. I dont recall him saying anything, really. It probably is in game, I just dont know, though

Quote
@47215 = ~Something strange up here. Be careful, this place has all manner of dangerous devices in it. I don't know what they do, but I know we would be safer if we shut them off.~

@47217 = ~We should look in that room to the west first, west and just a bit north. I think I saw some weapons in there.  It's a room off the corner of this one.~

@47220 = ~Do you smell that?  Smells like lightning, but indoors?  That can't be right.  I think I remember. Look to the right... the machine making the storm....~

Does Imoen say these things in Irenicus dungeon? I cant recall.


Quote
@47313 = ~I see the desires of the flesh have their way even with you, <CHARNAME>.  This is good to see.  I was beginning to think your libido as barren as that of a northern monk's.~
@47314 = ~<CHARNAME>, my <PRO_LADYLORD>!  You cannot be seriously considering such a depraved practice!  You are...just looking for information...correct?~

Trademeet pleasure tent, judging by dialogue around it. Does anyone say these things?

Quote
@47335 = ~Vampire Blood~

An item called vampire blood? I havent seen anything related to it.

Quote
@47381 = ~Sorry.  I don't serve your kind here, drow.  Get out.~
@47382 = ~I would be careful with that sharp tone, rivvin, lest you lose the tongue that shapes it.  Fortunately, I've no particular need of your slophouse and its stench of sweat.~

Another thing thats probably in game, but I dont remember. Try the Den of Seven Vales.

Quote
@47397 = ~Perhaps I did seek simpler things, but I meant no harm and thought I provided well enough. Please, I should go find my old home. Let us go.~

@47400 = ~I would not wish her inconvenience.  She is a good woman, and I will do what I can.  Perhaps I just wanted different things.  Come, I must find my old home.~

I really dont remember Cernds quest. I only ever took him in my party once, but he sucked so badly!!!

Quote
@47429 = ~Don't be stupid <CHARNAME>; I'm in no mood for a fight.  I'll give you some time to regain your senses.~

Sounds like something Jaheira would say. This is right next to the Mencar Pebblecrusher stuff.

Quote
@47503 = ~(sigh) With Missus Patricia gone, I imagine reaction to my rhythmic efforts will become ever more violent.  Pity the poor mage that would sing with bards.~

Its Alatelo de Bonito. Does he say this if the bar owner dies? I never killed her.

Quote
@47706 = ~Found your way into the secret of places? What should we do with you?~
@47707 = ~Found your way to this place, did you? What, I wonder, drove you here?~

@47709 = ~Found your way to this place, did you? What, I wonder, drove you here?~

Spellhold apparition guy, probably. Its probably in game. I dont really know.

Quote
@48004 = ~It seems there are always more questions than answers.  Your captor, Irenicus, met your escape, though he was already in battle, bested, and taken by wizards in cowls of purple before you could do much of anything against him.  Worse still, Imoen was also taken, apparently for the 'crime' of using dangerous magics.

Ive been through the first dungeon so many times, I dont even read the dialogue anymore. Is this part of it?

Quote
@48013 = ~Keldorn dies defending Sir William.

Keldorn's odd sense of justice and honor forced him to defend Sir William, the very man whom his own wife has been betraying him with.     Now, the Lady Maria is not only an adultress, but a widow as well.~

Hmm, I didnt think you could kill Sir WIlliam at all. I thought he left the bar after talking to Keldorn.


Quote
@48015 = ~Keldorn returns to his wife and family.

After discovering that his wife, Maria, had taken up with another man during his long absences, Keldorn decided that it was he who was at fault...and sought a reconciliation. Keldorn promised to resign from the Order, and I urged him to spend a week with his family, rebuilding their relationship...after which Keldorn told me that I could find him at his estate once again.~

Keldorn only takes a day off, or you release him from your service. This says a week.

Quote
@48018 = ~Keldorn wishes to visit his wife and family.

Keldorn took vengeance upon the man with whom his wife had betrayed him.  As a result, Maria has left Keldorn and taken her children with him.  The knight is devastated, obviously...but claims he is ready to return to my company so he can forget about these events.~

I never managed to get Keldorn to kill Sir WIlliam. I doubt this is actually in the game.

If it is of any help. . . the lines of dialog, @47313 & @47314 are spoken in the Copper Coronet when the Main Character accepts the "Madames" offer to spend the night with one of her ladies/gentlemen. The first line I believe is spoken by Viconia, the second by Anomen.

Quote
@47107 = ~Brus 'll be waiting for ye outside.  He's me nephew, an' he'll show you to the Copper Coronet.  Ye'll find work easily enough there, ye will.~

He says that all the time, before pointing you out to a specific person depending on your class.

As I once pointed out, Imoen has a lot of falsed out dialog triggers in Chateau Irenicus. It should definitely be restored.

Quote
@47335 = ~Vampire Blood~

It's on our to-do list.

Part of Cernd's quest.

Quote

Yes, Felicio is scripted to say that if Patricia dies (probably if Mencar and friends find their way downstairs).

Note: taking vengeance and defending his honor seem to be used here in a non-combat sense. Maybe during William's process or something?

These also show up when you save the game.

@47220 = ~Do you smell that?  Smells like lightning, but indoors?  That can't be right.  I think I remember. Look to the right... the machine making the storm....~

The first one is in the game.  Imoen says this if you ask her about getting weapons.  I've never heard the second one come up though.

Quote
@47706 = ~Found your way into the secret of places? What should we do with you?~

@47709 = ~Found your way to this place, did you? What, I wonder, drove you here?~

47706 seems to be the start of the riddle room once you've left the asylum.  This string leads to the first riddle you are asked.
The rest seem to be the dialogues that lead to the other riddles.  The only reason I can see for the duplicate State 1 lines is it depends on which apparition you speak to first.

48004 does seem to be a journal entry, but not one I've ever seen.  It looks like it would be one you get after escaping CI.

Perhaps it's one of the Chapter text Journal entries? In any case, I think we know roughly where it belongs in the game. ;)

So, any strings there which haven't been identified as mystery or assigned to the game?

@46836 = ~What, you were actually going to ask me to play peek-a-boo?  For a supposedly smart <RACE>, you don't have much imagination with the eye jokes, do you?~

spectator beholder, yes?  I'm not sure if he says it or not, but I assume this is where it would come into play

I don't remember any of these in all the plays through CI so I would think they were all cut from her dialogue

more than journal entry, it sounds like the spoken text which occurs at plot points, like escaping CI, beginning of each chapter, in front of watcher's keep, being capsized by sahuagin.  there's the screen with moving text under it as the narrator speaks.  maybe that's copied to the journal and i don't remember whether anything comes up after leaving the promenade until the "deal with gaelan bayle" text comes up

This sounds like some dialogue for the guy in the twisted rune.  Can anyone confirm this?  Maybe its some cut lines that were supposed to be said in the little dialogue piece when you go in.

That's what I meant.  I just didn't say it very clearly.

Hmm, Kangaxx maybe? I dont remember.


Quote
@48259 = ~Very well, though I would not turn down the offer to walk with you again. If you wish me, I shall be at my parents' home in Trademeet.~

Mazzy probably says it, I just dont recall this specific line.

I never thought Belle said anything. I guess I never talked to her while Valygar is with me.

Quote
@48838 = ~Yup.  You just wait... I'll be reknown as the greatest halfling sorcerer around Faerun in years to come!  Just you wait!~

A few other lines involving Mazzy are around there. Some random conversation, though I dont know with who.

This, and the following few lines, seem to be out of the dialog with Gaelan Bayle.

Quote
@48045 = ~ You find an opened book beside a body on the floor.~

This isn't from Merella's cabin, is it? If not, it sounds interesting...


Quote
@48259 = ~Very well, though I would not turn down the offer to walk with you again. If you wish me, I shall be at my parents' home in Trademeet.~

Mazzy's line when she leaves the party?

Good/neutral NPC leaving because of alignment?

From Arledrian's dialog.

A line from one of Mitsou's songs (a lame 80's Quebec singer)

@48777 = ~Someone let a dark elf in here?!  What, are we just gonna let this happen?  Come on, everyone...jump her!  Come on!~
@48779 = ~Calm yourself, rivvin.  I intend no harm to any of you, lest you strike the first blow.  Then things will get bloodier than you will like, I assure you.~

Viconia and... Belmin Gergas?

That dialog is in game, Belle is in the Five Flagons Inn IIRC.

A search in NI makes me even more sure that this is not in game.

PIRPRV and PIREXE are both character files in game. Privateer and Executioner are their names.

No, I just looked them up in SHadowkeeper. NI runs very slowly, even when its not searching through every file.

Searching through every file takes a long time though.

What? Is there something you know that you arent telling me?

I was bored, and since I havent worked on this in a month and a half because of Icelus and his break-taking, I figured I would do another thousand lines.

@49043 = ~I make no illusions about what will be required of you. I will wish you to kill, and I will wish you to terrorize. You must determine if you have the stomach for it. ~

@49196 = ~Ahh, get your soft hands outta here.~

@49261 = ~Gaelan Bayle?  Of the Hottentrot Bayles?  Hm.  Maybe not.  I heard mention of this one once, <CHARNAME>.  But the gnome who spoke of him also said in the same breath that Elminster had a personal collection of over a hundred monkeys, so who knows what you can believe these days?~

Stuff Bodhi says. Ive read the dialogue so many times I havent bothered to even read it in a while. Its probably all there, but I might as well be sure.

Quote
@49070 = ~Alnarow~

@49104 = ~The Palace~

@49136 = ~Alnarow~

No clue about any of them. Odds are The Palace is a location on an area map, but I cant recall anywhere it could be. Where the king stands in the sahuagin city would be my only guess.

Probably a dialogue with a fisherman or such in the docks, or less likely on Brynnlaw.

Quote
@49261 = ~Gaelan Bayle?  Of the Hottentrot Bayles?  Hm.  Maybe not.  I heard mention of this one once, <CHARNAME>.  But the gnome who spoke of him also said in the same breath that Elminster had a personal collection of over a hundred monkeys, so who knows what you can believe these days?~

If originally you werent forced to go to the slums and talk to Gaelan Bayle, maybe an NPC would say this upon meeting him?

Quote
@49262 = ~He may be right, <CHARNAME>.  It would take someone of power to find good information on the Cowled Wizards... this may be your only opportunity to find Imoen.~
@49263 = ~One should not turn away an offered hand so quickly, <CHARNAME>, but I would be wary of its secretive origin.  Perhaps we can find Imoen on our own.~

Maybe other party member say this when meeting Gaelan, but I do not recall.


Quote
@49266 = ~The plan to come, about drow and stuff.~

Hmm, third journal of Jon Irenicus? I dont remember.



Quote
@49300 = ~Sorsha~
@49301 = ~Sorsha~

NO idea who it is

Quote
@49475 = ~Unholy Reaver~

@49477 = ~Unholy Reaver~

I didnt think there were Unholy reavers in an unmodded game. maybe they are just undroppable or some such? I do not know.

Quote
@49758 = ~Artemis Entreri~

UB restored him, but I felt like including this for completeness sake.

Who drops items?

No idea, again.

Quote

The sahuagin in the planar sphere thing, restored already, maybe? Or maybe not.

@49046 = ~This will be a peaceful arrival, relatively speaking. The deaths will be strategic, almost artistic. You will be precise in your bloody strikes.~
@49047 = ~If this is not to your tastes, then you should decide accordingly. My path will be bloody, and you will not make many friends.~
@49048 = ~Think well before you act. You would not wish me as an enemy. I offer the chance to revel in the destruction of your masters. Will you take up the bloodied gauntlet?~
@49049 = ~If you work for me you oppose a softhearted criminal organization. If you work for them you oppose... what? Someone 'very creepy,' as you put it?~

@49061 = ~I will take the 15000 gold now, of course. It is secondary to my concerns, but that was the deal. Now to my tasks.~
@49062 = ~You need not look surprised. You didn't think they would let you wander about unwatched, did you?~
@49063 = ~For now, I suggest you move against that ship coming in.  They won't be at the docks for long, and if you do not get the cargo in the next few days you will fail.~

Sounds like something Bodhi could say...

@49104 = ~The Palace~

Isn't that a note on the Suldanesselar map?

Quote
@49261 = ~Gaelan Bayle?  Of the Hottentrot Bayles?  Hm.  Maybe not.  I heard mention of this one once, <CHARNAME>.  But the gnome who spoke of him also said in the same breath that Elminster had a <a href="http://www.ntsearch.com/search.php?q=personal&v=56">personal</a> collection of over a hundred monkeys, so who knows what you can believe these days?~
@49262 = ~He may be right, <CHARNAME>.  It would take someone of power to find good information on the Cowled Wizards... this may be your only opportunity to find Imoen.~
@49263 = ~One should not turn away an offered hand so quickly, <CHARNAME>, but I would be wary of its secretive origin.  Perhaps we can find Imoen on our own.~

Sounds like a Yoshimo banter at the end of chapter 1...

@49266 = ~The plan to come, about drow and stuff.~

Placeholder description for the Third Journal of Jon Irenicus.

@49758 = ~Artemis Entreri~

Planned to show up in Bodhi's lair.

Quote
@49998 = ~has dropped an item~

Sounds like a text for a panicked character dropping something.

Quote
@50046 = ~Sziltar's Apparition~
@50047 = ~Sziltar's Apparition~

Planned guardians for the Boholder's chest in City-of-caverns.

Quote
@50057 = ~As the last sahuagin in the ambush falls, you hear a distinct click coming from the south. It sounds as if a door has unlocked.~

Maybe the door in the Sahuagin room (planar sphere) was supposed to lock behind you?

Otherwise visit the Ashford City forum and ask the mods, because Barren knows all. Barren is good. Barren is wise.

I don't know about the rest, but I do know the Bodhi lines are in there.  It depends on the reply you pick when you first meet her in the graveyard.

After a long delay, I got another thousand done...
Only a few I am positive are not in the game, but a couple I dont recognize.

@50078 = ~Eh?  A beholder is behind this?  I have heard of their power -great power, indeed- but I have never heard of one without its eyes.~

@50095 = ~Desperate words for a desperate demon!  Your evil is at an end, foul one!  Prepare to join your master in the pits of the Abyss!!~

@50097 = ~Your evil is an affront to everything I believe in!  These... these mutilations are going to stop, and if it takes killing you to do that then we will!!~

@50108 = ~I shall tell you for more treasure.~
@50109 = ~I shall tell you for more treasure.~

@50118 = ~If the head of this temple has that kind of taste, what do they need Sarles for?  I could come up with a lump like that every day.  Heh... at least it worked out, I suppose.~

@50127 = ~Cor der noror rrin doth samman?~

@50132 = ~Ol raugh corl sargh? Xunder to thuldin sonn? Thuldul ol torst?~

@50137 = ~Gordul! Ta jarge. ~

@50160 = ~Mister Jansen again?  For the last time, government will not erect a magical anti-griffon perimeter around the city.  They simply aren't a threat, so stop bothering us!~


@50164 = ~Hmph.  'Not a threat'.  Your family moves to the city to get away from the griffons and then you watch Grandma Jansen get carried off by one, and what do they say?  'Not a threat'.  Thpppppfffft!~

@50169 = ~Oooh... wait one moment, you're Valygar Corthala, aren't you?  You wouldn't happen to know a Magdelene Corthala, would you?  As far as we can tell, she hasn't paid taxes in over seven years.~
@50170 = ~Wait...  that's a dark elf, isn't it? A dark elf  tax was brought into being by the Council of 1107... all dark elves must pay a daily fee to remain in the city.~
@50171 = ~You speak of my mother, cur... who has been dead for twice that many years.  An undead creature of her own making, killed at my hand.  Or do you have a tax for that, too?~
@50172 = ~I paid my dues when rivven attempted to burn me at the stake, elg'caress.  Ask me again to pay for the 'privilege' of visiting your city and you will forfeit your tongue.~
@50173 = ~Well, er... never mind, then.~

@50178 = ~Now if you are all here to try and get a form, all I can tell you is that ... oh... it's Mister Jansen.  How do you do, sir?~
@50179 = ~But of course.  I'll have a copy of the Windy Willows form sent out to her right away... three copies, naturally, as required.~
@50180 = ~-- you only publish a hundred or so, it contains numerous errors, it has no index... and yet you charge two hundred gold for a copy.  And you people call US thieves.~
@50182 = ~I'm just fine, Mr. Government Clerk.  You know, Ma Jansen's been having quite the time with the local constabulary, saying she can't sell turnips where she likes.  Got a form for that?  (wink, wink!)~
@50186 = ~Wonderful!  Sorry about the gold, there, <CHARNAME>... consider it a loan.  One has to grease the wheels, here, if you're going to get anything done, you know.~
@50187 = ~That such bribery would be the norm is despicable... worse, yet, that you perpetrate it, gnome.  How are the poor to get justice in such an environment?~
@50189 = ~That's fine for those with gold, but what about the poor?  They suffer because they can't fill the pockets of someone already getting paid to do a job?  It's unfair!~
@50191 = ~(snort!)  Indeed.  And this is just to get the form.  Wait to see the bribe needed when his mother has to actually submit the copies to three different places.~

@50200 = ~Is that the purpose?  That is odd, berk... for all the coins I see exchanging hands in this place, it would seem to me that everyone knows exactly whom to bribe.~

@50203 = ~I shall stay only if the reward is sufficient. What shall you give me for my skills in this battle?~
@50267 = ~Nevertheless, I inisist that I receive the deed before you open the portal.~
@50268 = ~Just don't forget to give it to me before you leave. I wouldn't want to have to run around the Planes looking for you.~
@50269 = ~If that is how it must be. Here take the deed and prepare your self.~
@50270 = ~Good. Let's get this over with.~

@50275 = ~Traitor! Our trusts and hopes have been pinned on you! You betray us for the deed to a simple playhouse?? Have you no morals at all!?~


@50279 = ~I have 1000 Amnish coins left and shall have no more use for them. Would this be sufficient? I shall give them to you once the portal is safe.~

@50286 = ~Traitor! Our trusts and hopes have been pinned on you! You betray us for a thousand pieces of gold?? Have you no morals at all!?~

@50296 = ~What's that you got there... you with all the scars.  It looks like a scarf my son made me out of weasels a few years back.~

@50294 = ~Who's that you got there?  Some old rustic from the rural areas?  You aren't here begging for coin, are you?  It's not allowed in this District.~
@50297 = ~I may be a rustic, good woman, but if being civilized and city-bred ingrains manners such as yours into a person, I am likely better off without it.~
@50301 = ~Boo is my stalwart companion, and he says that if you must wear the skins of a dead animal around your neck, the evil sharp-toothed weasel is a good choice.~

@50302 = ~Wait one moment... that wouldn't be Cor's son there, would it?  Why, I remember when I used to swaddle you in diapers, I do!  My, but you haven't changed a bit!~
@50304 = ~Oh.  You must be my governess... er... Martha?  Marilynn, is it?  Good day to you, good woman.~
@50305 = ~Are you referring to me?  Watch who you address with over-familiarity, commoner wench, lest I slap you to the ground and keep you there!~
@50306 = ~And he hasn't changed much since you knew him, either.  He still whines all the time, pounds his fists and feet when he has a tantrum and burps after every meal.  Feeds himself, though.  A good lad.~
@50307 = ~And he hasn't changed since ye bathed him, woman.  He still whines, cries, thows 'is tantrums and belches after every meal.~

@50309 = ~You'd barely see the difference.  He still cries all the time, speaks nonsense and burps after every meal.  Fortunately, the toilet training has come along nicely.~

@50311 = ~I shall not be made a fool of in front of my governess!  Stop it!  Stop it!  Stop it!!~

@50412 = ~Regardless of your debate, I will not allow the weak to be preyed upon.  Call your man back, sir, or I shall be forced to intervene!~

@50433 = ~Ah!  You are Lord Valygar Corthala, are you not?  I have seen you before, but we have never had the pleasure of meeting personally!~
@50436 = ~My family has no claim to a noble title anymore, my lady.  As such, I am sure you would have no interest in someone such as I, especially with my family's reputation.~
@50438 = ~Nonsense.  I'm always willing to make room for someone of your... physique.  And piffle on your reputation, it's the man that counts... and you seem quite a man to me.~


@50441 = ~Really?  Than it is almost a pity that I am too busy at the moment.  Perhaps... another time.~
@50442 = ~Beware, noble one.  It is my understanding that our ranger friend has no love for females.  Ghouls, perhaps, but not females.  I was rather considering coloring his leathers pink.~
@50443 = ~Do it!  Show me, Valygar, that you are indeed a man!  Show me that you have what it takes to hold a female's attention!~
@50444 = ~Shut up, Viconia, or I swear I'll -- !!~
@50445 = ~As you wish, drow bitch!!~

@50449 = ~Oh, I see little miss Nalia de'Arnise has decided to regale the city with another of her visits.  What will it be today, Nalia?  Spreading bread crumbs for the paupers?  Licking the heels of beggars?~
@50451 = ~Vicious snippet!  When I see Pehllus next I'll make sure you pay for that remark!~
@50452 = ~Nothing you say bothers me, Oriona.  I could roll in cow dung all day long and still come out cleaner than a petty, upper-class whore.~

@50499 = ~Hmmmn.  You've lovely features there, girl, for an elf.  Such lovely blue eyes.  Perhaps I will forget about Oriona and the two of us shall go somewhere together, yes?~

@50564 = ~Executioner~
@50572 = ~Privateer~
@50574 = ~Privateer~

@50580 = ~Pipe~

@50707 = ~Slumber~

@50835 = ~Mind Amplification Device~

@50838 = ~You see a tiny hole, small enough for a small rodent.~
@50839 = ~Mind Amplification Device~
@50855 = ~<PLAYER2>? So be it, I shall face this worm in combat. The outcome shall determine the fate of this place!~
@50856 = ~<PLAYER3>? So be it, I shall face this worm in combat. The outcome shall determine the fate of this place!~
@50857 = ~<PLAYER4>? So be it, I shall face this worm in combat. The outcome shall determine the fate of this place!~
@50858 = ~<PLAYER5>? So be it, I shall face this worm in combat. The outcome shall determine the fate of this place!~
@50859 = ~<PLAYER6>? So be it, I shall face this worm in combat. The outcome shall determine the fate of this place!~

@50895 = ~Drow Cook~
@50896 = ~Drow Cook~

@50934 = ~You see a hole small enough for a rodent.  Too bad you don't have some way to change into a rat or a squirrel.~

@50935 = ~I know your name is Veldrin, even if you cannot remember it.  Obviously you are barely a century... if that.  Collect your wits to survive here, fool.~

@50939 = ~You could probably use your Potion of Squirrel change to enter the tunnel.  (click hole again to use potion)~
