[Dashe]

If I come up with more characters, should I put those in a separate post or just add them to this one?

Dialogue Line 2: For my job, I mean. I accidentally knocked a cart full of refractors off of this cliff.
Dialogue Line 3: It isn't the first time either. I really hope the foreman didn't notice...

---

Character Type: Plump Woman
Character Name: Betty
Background/Personality: The town gossip for either Tronne or Malt Island. Whichever's busier. She's always up in everyone's business. As a result of this, she sometimes inadvertently winds up giving Tuttle hints to progress in the game and tipping him off about sidequests...but other times, her gossip is, well, just gossip.
Location in Game: Out in the open in the busiest part of town, situated near other townspeople, chatting their ears off.
Dialogue Line 1: Hey there, stranger! Long time no see! How've you been?
Dialogue Line 2: Anyway, you'll never believe what Sandi saw this afternoon, not in a million years!

Location in Game: Dashe Island...where it's noticeably safer to let your kids run around town.
Dialogue Line 1: My kids? They're off playing with the neighborhood children.
Dialogue Line 2: I wish it were easier to keep track of them, but it beats having them in the house all day.
Dialogue Line 3: Then again, hunting them down so they can come home for dinner...that's always rough...

---

Character Type: Teen Girl
Character Name: Christine
Background/Personality: Wants desperately to become a digger. Her parents adamantly will not allow it, so she's willing to go to ridiculous lengths to make her dream come true on her own.
Location in Game: A junk shop
Dialogue Line 1: Hey mister, you look like you've got some money on you...
Dialogue Line 2: Would it be too much to ask for a loan? I need to buy some digging equipment and I'm a little short.
Dialogue Line 3: I promise I'll pay you back once I've gone on some digs and made some zenny!

---

Character Type: Teen Girl
Character Name: Skyler

---

Character Type: Busy Lady
Character Name: Debbie
Background/Personality: A self-taught electrician and holon mechanic who makes house calls, she is well-known for her reasonable rates and high quality of work. Debbie is confident that her skills working with both electronic and holon devices are at least on par with the workers in the Quint Islands' primary power plant, but holds a ridiculous grudge against them for rejecting her application once. She has not applied to work there since, but if she did she'd probably get the job.
Location in Game: Appears on various islands. She tends to travel by airship.
Dialogue Line 1: If you ever find yourself in need of repairs, I'm your gal!
Dialogue Line 2: I can fix anything from a brand-new VCR to an airship engine in a jiffy!
Dialogue Line 3: Just ask any one of my satisfied customers. I've had clients on every one of the Quint Islands!

---

Location in Game: Walking around town at night, while her store is closed
Dialogue Line 1: Phew! It feels good to be able to walk around like this and not worry about my shop.
Dialogue Line 2: Well, until I wake up tomorrow and have to man the register by myself all day again.
Dialogue Line 3: You don't happen to know of anybody who's looking for part-time work, do you?

---

Character Type: Old Man
Character Name: Rodrick
Background/Personality: He's hooked on a game called Kobun Card, which he plays in the park pretty regularly. He's convinced all the hip young kids in town are into it, too. He doesn't realize Kobun Card was last month's big thing.
Location in Game: In a park, or someplace else suitable for playing a card game
Dialogue Line 1: Hey there, you look like a hip cat! I can tell from looking at your dapper attire! How's about a card game?
Dialogue Line 2: You've heard of Kobun Card, right? It's all the rage! I bet kids even sneak the cards into school!
Dialogue Line 3: You want to know why the kids aren't lined up to play against me now? Cause I'd win, that's why!

---

Character Type: Old Man
Character Name: Leroy
Background/Personality: A veteran explorer who's isn't letting his age get the better of him. He's been mapping out Chizz Island for years and wants to create a new settlement, but he's having trouble getting people interested in relocating to such a harsh climate. He aggressively solicits anybody who passes by to settle in his, er, town...
Location in Game: Chizz Island, near a very shoddily made shack that he's been living in.
Dialogue Line 1: Why howdy! I'm the mayor of Leroyton, poplulation: 1! Welcome to my humble village!
Dialogue Line 2: This is probably the safest neighborhood in the region, you know!
Dialogue Line 3: ...Well, aside from the constant risk of heatstroke and dehydration. Still, the, uh, sand can't be beat!

---

Character Type: Teen Guy
Character Name: John
Background/Personality: He thinks he knows how to play the guitar, and he won't let you forget it.
Location in Game: Doesn't matter
Dialogue Line 1: Wanna know the best way to pick up chicks?
Dialogue Line 2: Become a guitarist. Really. If you take up guitar like I did, the chicks will be all over you.
Dialogue Line 3: Seriously. You only have to learn, like, three chords to impress people. It works like a charm.

---

Character Type: Teen Guy
Character Name: Tyler
Background/Personality: He's really into canes. More specifically, fighting with them. He is the self-proclaimed master of Cane Fu, but then again, he's never met anybody else who's used a cane for combat before either. Naturally, he's pretty glad to meet Tuttle. Nobody's sure when or why he decided to start using a cane as a weapon, but the rest of the town thinks he's a pretty weird kid.
Location in Game: Near a ruin
Dialogue Line 1: Hey! Nice cane! You use yours to beat up Reaverbots, too, right?
Dialogue Line 2: I can tell from all the dents and scratches on it. Wanna spar sometime?
Dialogue Line 3: Don't think I'll go easy on you just because you're old!

[Mirak]

Hello everyone, question: No kids?

[fAB]

...should I put those in a separate post or just add them to this one?

We'll be going through the entire thread start to finish when we look all the entries over so either way works.

No kids?

There will of course be child NPCs in the game, but the number of adult NPCs is much higher so in turn the amount of adult dialogue we'll be needing is much greater.


Really loving some of these entries! Still over a week to enter so if you haven't filled your entry quota, keep brainstorming!

[Hikari]

Character Type: Old Man
Character Name: I, I don't know
Background/Personality: This person has a habit of complaining about the difficulties of life, but then he immediately finds the way out. He's full of energy, and is a good example of a never-giving-up spirit. Has a comical side to him.
Location in Game: Outside of his house on a rainy day.
Dialogue Line 1: Oh, this is just terrible! After I went to all the trouble to get dressed, it's raining outside!
Dialogue Line 2: How come this rain is spoiling my morning walk?!
Dialogue Line 3: That's it! I'm not changing my plans for the weather! Here I go!

Character Type: Old Man
Character Name: Failed to identify
Background/Personality: A veteran digger who is calming down in his old age. He is now enjoying his simple life, and has nothing to feel sorry about. He is well known and respected among both young and old. Never gets angry.
Location in Game: Sitting on a bench at a place with a nice view.
Dialogue Line 1: It's a nice weather. . . Oh! No time to talk? I understand.
Dialogue Line 2: You may not believe me, but I used to be quite an adventurer in my younger days, yes. . .
Dialogue Line 3: Well, I'm certainly in no shape to do any digging now, but it still lives in me no doubt.

Character Type: Worker
Character Name: Grant, Bryce (any name that could provide a contrast with his cowardly nature)
Background/Personality: A mechanic with a tendency to overcomplicate things in a horrible way. As a result, he's rather nervous.
Location in Game: Buscan Island, working on some broken machine (perhaps, at night).
Dialogue Line 1: Whoa! Don't do this to me! I thought you were a ghost or something. . . Pretty creepy around here, eh?
Dialogue Line 2: Speaking of creepy. . . What would I do if there's no work left anywhere?
Dialogue Line 3: Now that I think about it, I really shouldn't think about it. Ahem! Back to work, before another scary thought hits me!

Character Type: Worker
Character Name: No need for a name here, it's hopeless
Background/Personality: An adventurer at heart. After having realized that he's stuck on Chizz for the rest of his life, he went nuts (a tiny bit). Spends most of his time on the abandoned air field, waiting for something amazing to pop out. Recently has started talking to himself and things that surround him.
Location in Game: Chizz Island, abandoned air field (but of course).
Dialogue Line 1: Drat! Got a mouthful of sand just now! Could you, uh. . . Could you help me, please?
Dialogue Line 2: This here construction may look unimportant and all, but I know it's alive, heh-heh. . .
Dialogue Line 3: There's got to be some kind of mystery to this island! I mean, if there's nothing here, then. . . what's the point?

Character Type: Teen Guy
Character Name: Marion (other kids dare to call him Mari)
Background/Personality: A laughing stock of the town. Tries to act serious, but fails miserably. Always speaks in a soft voice in a ridiculously polite manner.
Although a little cocky at first, he grows to consider Tuttle as someone to look up to. But. . . is that really going to make things any better?
Location in Game: Around the corner of his house in the evening.
Dialogue Line 1: Good evening, sir. Could you please step back from me? I can be dangerous to talk to.
Dialogue Line 2 (starts talking to himself): *Sigh* They never listen. No matter how many times I tell them to stop, before it's too late. . .
Dialogue Line 3: And so they come to me, and they beat me, and. . . Wait. That's not what I meant.

Character Type: Teen Guy
Character Name: Nobody really cares about his name
Background/Personality: Although he doesn't have what it takes to become a digger himself, this troublemaker likes to hang out around the digging sites and get on people's nerves. His somewhat rude attitude is the result of him messing up the Digger's Test (Mirumijee got him). Doesn't seem to have any goals in life other then bugging people he finds "interesting". Unfortunately for Tuttle. . .
Location in Game: Digging site or some other place.
Dialogue Line 1: You a digger? Hmph! Don't make me laugh!
Dialogue Line 2: Not to sound mean, but I seriously doubt you can take on a Reaverbot. Not with that stick of yours!
Dialogue Line 3: My Digger's License? I. . . You. . . It's none of your business!

Character Type: Teen Girl
Character Name: Jean
Background/Personality: Cheerful, kind, and a little careless. This girl is always looking for new things to do around town. She really likes to meet new people, and is most excited when someone comes to the island. Takes it upon herself to make sure everyone's having a great time.
Location in Game: Anywhere she pleases.
Dialogue Line 1: Hi there, mister! Have a nice day! Hee-hee. . .
Dialogue Line 2: You're from some other island, aren't you? My name's Jean!
Dialogue Line 3: There're lots of things to do around here, you know! Just keep your eyes open!

Character Type: Teen Girl
Character Name: Taina
Background/Personality: A shy girl trying to make friends. Her strict and overprotective mother did well at keeping her daughter safe from the "insanity" of the world. Now a teenager, the girl is having trouble communicating with people, not to mention, she's never seen the outskirts of the island she lives on. Although her vision of the world is that of her mother, she is trying to find her own way in life. Taina got used to being alone, but what she really wants is to go outside and find out as much as she can about the world.
Location in Game: Not too far from home, so that her mother could see her.
Dialogue Line 1: H-hello.
Dialogue Line 2: I usually don't talk to strangers, but you look like a perfectly sane person to me, so it's OK, I guess.
Dialogue Line 3: I'm sorry, but my mom doesn't like it when I stay out for too long, and. . . I'll go.

Character Type: Plump Woman
Character Name: What was it again?
Background/Personality: Driven by a desire to make people smile, this plump woman is often seen giving away all sorts of cakes and cookies at all sorts of places.
She will gladly climb a mountain, if that's what it takes to make one's life a little brighter. Always remains optimistic, and wants to see others do the same. Can be very forgetful at times.
Location in Game: Any place in the game, sometimes a very hard to reach place (nonetheless, the plump woman is acting as if there's nothing out of the ordinary).
Dialogue Line 1: Now, why don't you try some? They are delicious!
Dialogue Line 2: Oh, there're so many things you can put in a cake! I can't even begin to tell you. . .
Dialogue Line 3: Hmmm, what was it I put in mine?. . . N-no, don't walk away!

Character Type: Plump Woman
Character Name: Not sure
Background/Personality: She's raising two small children, and is very fond of them as they never cause any trouble. Her legs are pretty bad, so she stays indoors most days, doing various things about the house. Despite the hardships, she is content with her life, and is a very nice person to talk to.
Location in Game: Sitting in a chair before the house, dreaming or watching the kids play (in the evening).
Dialogue Line 1: . . .Hm? Oh, I'm sorry I didn't hear you--this heat must have tired me out.
Dialogue Line 2: Have you seen my boys around here? Ah, there they are!
Dialogue Line 3: My children are the only treasure I need.

Character Type: Busy Lady
Character Name: Katryn
Background/Personality: Although she really IS busy, this young lady tends to get carried away easily. Once that happens, she starts talking about all sorts of things with or without any relation to one another.
Location in Game: Any place is good for slacking off.
Dialogue Line 1: Hey, wait! Your face. . . You were on TV! In the background.
Dialogue Line 2: I don't know why, but that reporter, hee-hee. . . I like clumsy men.
Dialogue Line 3: Oh, my! Will you look at the clock! I have absolutely. . . Nah, I'll skip work today.

Character Type: Busy Lady
Character Name: Guts. . . N-no, that won't do. Let's call her (name) for the time being
Background/Personality: Due to the lack of labor force in the area, women have decided to step in and do the hard work. (name) is one of them, and is probably the strongest. Everyone recognizes that, and (name) is often asked to work overtime as the only one capable. She is hopelessly trying to convince herself that it's not that bad. She hates her job, nothing seems to be going her way, and she's yet to find out one more thing: she hates Tuttle. Her lines are often accompanied by her thoughts.
Location in Game: Working hard at some place (perhaps, a factory or some caves).
Dialogue Line 1: Boy, oh boy! It took me hours to have this fixed! (I sure hope the darn thing won't fall apart by the end of the day. . .)
Dialogue Line 2: Have you ever thought about the work as the way of having fun? (What the heck did I just say?)
Dialogue Line 3: You're still here? Hm. It's not often that I get that much attention. . . (If you don't stop distracting me, I will pulverize you!)

[Dashe]

Only one more day to wrap up your entries! They're pretty easy to churn out, so it's not too late to toss one in either!

[Santa Melty]

Hum. I'm coming up a bit short here. Maybe one more night of sleep will give me a few more ideas. Hasn't worked yet, but hey, 21st time's the charm.



Character Type: Old Man
Character Name: Rocco
Background/Personality: An old man with a bad habit of sleepwalking. Seems to take it in stride.

Dialogue Line 2: The last thing I remember doing was laying down for a nap. And now I'm... Where is this, exactly?

Character Name: Ellsworth
Background/Personality: A cowardly and lovesick boy trying to find a way to express himself to some Teen Girl.
Location in Game: Somewhere populated, but slightly out of sight. Perhaps somewhere from which he might conceivably be watching said Teen Girl. An alleyway, or at the back of a crowd maybe.
Dialogue Line 1: Maybe I could ask some of her friends what she thinks of me? No, no, they'll just go and tell her.
Dialogue Line 2: A locker note? No, that's too cliche. She'll think I'm dull. A confession? No, no, I'm too scared!
Dialogue Line 3: I'll write her a poem, sign someone else's name, and then watch her reaction! No, no, that's dumb.

Background/Personality: A woman who works on Tronne delivering goods for the wealthier residents. Has good work ethic, and is optimistic about her prospects.

Dialogue Line 2: It's hard work, but if I keep at it, I might be living in one of these houses some day!
Dialogue Line 3: You know what would help deliveries? If I could jump on the rooftops. Would that be legal, though?
