Sample Dialogues
You can find sample dialogues for all bioware NPCs and a love talk preview in the Gibberlings Three Forums. Below is a sample Delainy-Jaheira banter.
Delainy: Jaheira, who is this Silvanus that I sometimes hear you utter? It's obvious he is some kind of deity or other, but I must admit, that I'm kinda still getting used to the whole god thing. It seems like there is a crowd out there for the choosing.
Jaheira: Silvanus? You mean to tell me you've never heard of Silvanus, the Great Tree Father?
Delainy: Well, I have heard *of* him, but I don't really know him. I was curious if you could tell me a bit more.
Jaheira: And why would you care to know of him? I mean, I hope you realize that I'm not one to proselytize much... are you considering becoming a devotee?~
Delainy: I'm sorry, I didn't mean to cause offense. It's just... well... before our flight the records of our people mentioned other deities, but only three were given any kind of reverence at all. Maybe it's just me, but it seems to me that by studying the gods held in reverence, one can learn much of a people... and, well, I know that I don't want to take up some kind of holy life, its just that I really am curious. I mean, there is a whole new world of things I don't know about.
Jaheira: Just who were these three?
Delainy: The first was Malar, worshipped by the wolfweres that lived to our north. Whenever they managed to catch one of us, they sacrificed him to the one they called the Beastlord.
Jaheira: Yes, Malar is one of the bloodier sorts. We occasionally must put down his followers that rise up from time to time as well. I will grant that they make powerful warriors, but their own chaotic nature makes them unreliable.
Delainy: Yes, we learned much the same, though the edge we had was that we could always retreat behind the wall separating us.
Jaheira: And the other two?
Delainy: Well, the other one isn't much better--goes by the name Daragor. The ones that eventually drove us off worshipped him.
Jaheira: Not much of a better choice. I will admit that I know less of Daragor than I do of Malar, but I do know Daragor much prefers werewolves, while Malar is less discriminating.
Delainy: Yes, and when you and <CHARNAME> defeated the wolfweres, after you fled the island those who called on Daragor ousted those who didn't bow to them in a bloody coup.
Jaheira: I am sorry to--
Delainy: Don't apologize. You had no idea of the repercussions of your actions. Truth be known it wouldn't really matter. In some ways, it was better. For those who worshipped Daragor, while evil, were inward looking, believing they already had the best of all possible worlds. Unlike those who I fled with, those who worshipped Eshebala...
Jaheira: Eshebala? Isn't she the one who...
Delainy: Yes, our lore indicated that she had her own children, ones she called foxwomen. However, she granted her favor to those of us who sought to expand beyond the island. That does make sense, now that I think about it. Compared to the other two, she is much more refined.
Whatever else the other two are, calling them brutish would be just a start! It could tickle her fancy at having werewolves, those she normally despises, to worship her. So does this mean you don't follow these three? I... I don't know if this makes sense but I may be a werewolf, but that doesn't mean I have to hurt people, you know? I mean, yes, it is a part of me, and I wouldn't give it up for the world, but is that all I am? I don't know... but I would like to find out more.
Jaheira: Hmm. Well, I can tell you a bit more of Silvanus, but I must admit, I don't know that he would be the right fit for you. Silvanus is the father of the woods, it is true, but it sounds like you seek to do as much good as you can. I won't deny some of Silvanus' followers do such matters, but he also represents the wild storm, the destructive power of nature that eventually leads to regrowth.
Delainy: Oh, I guess I should give this further thought. Thanks for your time Jaheira.
