Cycle-Text Ideas

Post by Llama »

I'm taking Jupiter's suggestion -

Cycle-Text is the random words an NPC says to himself/herself when nobody does anything.

So I want to collect a list of possible flavour texts for 4 NPCs

Borgate//The Guy at the Pig Pen// Sorgan (The Dwarf at the workshop)//Eliza

Hopefully then they'll be implemented, so instead of seeing Eliza eat 500 fishes every day, you'll see a few interesting things.

So this is an attempt at collecting a list of possible cycle-texts, maybe they'll be considered. - also if someone wants to translate them... they'd need to be in german too I think


Borgate
#me wipes a beer stain from his shirt
#me mutters something about beer to himself
Wish more people were like Augham...
Arr come in, take a seat
So, what will we be drinkin` today?
Mmm beer, could use a glass for meself


Pig Person
#me sings a silly song
#me pokes a pig and greets it
#me sniffs the muddy ground
#me picks his nose
#me looks up at the sky
#me makes strange noises with his mouth
#me attempts to tickle himself
#me giggles loudly

Mummy says I'm a good boy
Did you meet my friend? *points to a pig* His name's Eggbert
Aww, this pig looks like it has a cold [ :twisted: ]


Sorgan

#me strokes his beard
#me looks longingly at the anvils
#me mutters something about not having a drink for too long
#me looks at a shiney gem and grins to himself
#me counts his coins

I used to be a smith ye know, before they put me here selling this
Take a look at me wares!
Smithed Wares! Better than Eliza's!


Eliza

#me scratches at her scales
#me looks around the shop
#me polishes some armor
#me sharpens one of the swords
#me sniffs around the room

Can't think of any more... please help out ;)

Borgate

#me belches
#me narrows his eyes and looks around the room
#me drinks an entire beer and places the glass on his head.
I've had better times layin' face down in gutters! Arr!
#me rubs his eyes, and throws his bottle away. (Replacement for "Looks around bored")


Eliza

#me piles up some coins on the table
#me emits a low hiss
#me juggles three fish and catches them all in her mouth.


Pig guy

#me sneezes and rubs his nose
That's not mud...
#me tosses the pigs some scraps
#me sticks his finger in his ear and jiggles it around


Sorgan


#me quickly removes an errant spark from his beard
#me taps his tool against the wall. "Dwarf made!"
Me beard quivers at such shoddy work!
#me mumbles about treehuggers and longlegs.
