Town Crier Rumors
Viamontian Town Criers
- Town Crier tells you, "Those Runed Weapons? I have nothing to say, except that I strongly urge you to recover some of them. Seek them out in chests of treasure..."
- Town Crier tells you, "There have been reports of adventurers finding their way into a nest of Mukkir. This should be investigated."
- Town Crier tells you, "Even you, thin-blooded outlander worm, can aspire to serve the Rossu Morta if you prove your loyalty. If you are one of those Bloodless enlightened enough to have previously earned their trust, seek out the local Experimental Thaumaturgist in Sanamar."
- Town Crier tells you, "I have heard reports of variants of Alduressa Armor being made out of alloyed crystal. Is that even possible?"
- Town Crier tells you, "King Varicci has asked all loyal Viamontians to aid the Bloodless alchemist Ciandra in studying the return of the Essences. The Essences are dangerous. On this subject we and the Bloodles are in agreement."
- Town Crier tells you, "Yes, the air is fresh and the trees are green. If you attempt to give me a flower I will cut you down where you stand."
- Town Crier tells you, "Rumor has it that the Chaotic Virindi are looking for some ancient power source. Kill all Virindi you see in order to insure they do not obtain it."
- Town Crier tells you, "I heard from another Crier that the drunkard of Ayan Baqur is looking for the same power source the Chaotic Virindi seek. I would be amused to see him blow himself up."
- Town Crier tells you, "If the White Rabbit's children were to survive I fear that a new dominant species would sweep across the land."
- Town Crier tells you, "I have heard reports of an Alduressa armorer creating armor using gems crafted of crystal and shadow. The reports place this individual near the Knights of Karlun fort, near Silyun. This should be investigated as quickly as possible."
- Town Crier tells you, "Runed Weapons! Masterfully constructed weapons, commissioned by our own King from Silveran smiths long ago and brought at great expense to this land... Stolen by what I can only assume are Bloodless thieves and scattered to the four winds... What perversity!"
- Town Crier tells you, "There have been reports of adventurers collecting gems that transport them and their fellows to a nest of Mukkir. If these reports are true, it could be of great use to those who have been researcing these strange creatures."
- Town Crier tells you, "I can tell just by the smell of you that you are a Bloodless weakling, but if you have managed to choose the correct side in this war, and have earned the trust of the Grand Knight and the Ordina Rossu Morta, you should report to Melaverre of Sanamar to make yourself useful."
- Town Crier tells you, "After the loss of life in the North Dires, our King is taking more active involvement in any strange events in the world. For instance, he has his own alchemists attempting to uncover the secrets of the Essences. For now King Varicci urges those with strength enough to go forth and impede the Essences' progress."
Mainland Town Criers
- Town Crier tells you, "I've heard stories about adventurers hunting down and killing a large "Mukkir." I have no idea what a "Mukkir" is, but it sounds scary...."
- Town Crier tells you, "Rumor has it that the Raven Hand is looking for some ancient power source. I hope they don't find it."
- Town Crier tells you, "Another beautiful spring! And all of the animals are having cute little babies."
- Town Crier tells you, "I've seen people running about in what appears to be Alduressa Shadow Armor. I wonder where they got that..."
- Town Crier tells you, "The Essences are moving again. I for one am not going to be around when they get wherever they're going."
- Town Crier tells you, "There's another mysterious person in Ayan Baqur, looking for "very loyal" people to help him out. How very cloak and dagger!"
- Town Crier tells you, "My friend told me he'd gotten a new weapon out of a treasure chest... But he wouldn't let me see it, because the last time he let me handle one of his weapons... Well, I lost it."
- Town Crier tells you, "My cousin told me that he met a Viamontian Armorer near a keep outside of Silyun. This armorer was crafting Shadow Armor much like the ones our three Master Armorers do."
- Town Crier tells you, "Ciandra has asked for more help in studying the Essences. If you are capable of helping her you should visit her in her workshop above Xarabydun."
- Town Crier tells you, "So have you heard about these Runed Weapons? Very fancy! I hear tell they were commissioned by Varicci's forces long ago, but they were looted from the royal vaults!"
- Town Crier tells you, "I've heard that the White Rabbit has a son. Imagine if you will all of the rabbits of this world being as dangerous as the White Rabbit. You know what you have to do."
- Town Crier tells you, "Adventurers have reported that they've found Gems that will open a gateway to a nest of Mukkir, whatever they are."
- Town Crier tells you, "If you have loyally served Queen Elysa and the rebels of Silyun, and have already helped the Whispering Blade, you may want to consider going to Ayan Baqur to speak with a man named Harkwull."
- Town Crier tells you, "I heard from a friend that Ulgrim was loooking for the same power source that the Raven Hand is looking for."
Ulgrim Rumors
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Got any eeps?"
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Drudges, you can't live with them and you can't kill 'em. Wait, strike that, you can kill them. And I suppose if you had some house rules laid down you could live with a Drudge, I mean look at that lady in Shoushi. Although I bet a Drudge never remembers to put the seat down."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I'm sure glad to hear that Iian di Alduressa figured out his armorcrafting techniques. I always thought he was a good fellow. Polite, unassuming, but a trifle high strung."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Spring has sprung, and the world is new. The snow has gone, now so should you."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Seriously, go away, you bother me."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "So Varicci commissioned those Runed Weapons from some mysterious Silveran smiths. Fancy fancy. Then he went to all the trouble to drag them through the portals, getting ready to distribute them to his elite troops... And poof, they're gone."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Couldn't happen to a nicer homicidal despot."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Have you ever noticed how the animals only have babies at a certain time every year? I think it may have something to do with the magical fields of the world suppressing certain urges, but something opposes the fields come Spring, allowing nature to do its thing."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "It might explain the strange attraction I have for Drudges every Spring. Heh, just kidding..."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Well, okay, I'll accept this mug of stout, but don't think it will get me to intercede on your behalf with the Mukkir. Nope, I'm just a concerned citizen."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Runed Weapons? I surely didn't steal them from Varicci's vaults. Everyone has to try and blame everything on me!"
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I've heard tell of a source of power hidden away somewhere and guarded by deadly guard type things. I'm worried this item might fall into the wrong hands. If you find this power bring it to me and I will use it to brew the most powerful... I mean I will keep it safe. Yes, safe and sound."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "That rotten rabbit is having more evil spawn! It must be mating with the lesser rabbits or perhaps it's asexual. I wouldn't be surprised by anything that furry menace does. We must stop the White Rabbit from perpetuating its dark line."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I hear that we may already have failed and that last year a Son of Pooky was born who escaped the Spring Cleaners! Go hunt him down and save all of us from the White Menace! Go!"
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "We'll miss you, Big Willie. Nope, I'm not going to explain what that means."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I was going to write a song for my lady about what a dangerous guy I am to love. I was going to call it "Ring of Stout." Want to hear the first lines?"
- Ulgrim clears his voice and prepares to sing.
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Love... is a boozy thing..."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "And it makes... a foamy ring..."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "What do you think so far?"
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "People have been finding their way into an entire nest of Mukkir."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Good luck to them. I'll be right here, just me and my Dark Lager."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Good to know there was on Viamontian in Dereth smart enough to actually learn something from outside his own, elitist bloodline."
- Ulgrim looks thoughtful for a moment.
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Perhaps I can teach him the Noble Art of Stout..."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "There's a sneaky Aluvian right here in Ayan Baqur who is looking for people who can't tell the difference between foolishness and bravery. Darned Aluvians!"
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Who, me? Aluvian? Nope, I am one of the famed mounted warriors of Souia-Vey. Hey, where's my horse? Who stole my horse?!?"
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "There's someone named Melaverre in Sanamar who's asking people to do some perfectly horrific things. Worse, even, than drinking stale Stout."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I'll never forget how you helped me out with that whole broken wand problem. I really owe you one."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "So... here."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant gives you Stout.
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "You deserve that... Fred. Fredrina? Bah, whatever."
- Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Rowr."
