Dialogue[ | ]
BokkenFirstDialog[ | ]
- A frail, disheveled old man wearing a stained and tattered robe gives you a gloomy look. "I'm Bokken, local herbalist. What brings you here?"
- "Tell me about yourself."
- "What's there to tell? I'm an herbalist. Make potions and sell them. Gather herbs, roots, berries..." Bokken sighs. "I live in the forest, live off the land. Since leaving Restov for these parts, I ended up a merchant here at Oleg and Svetlana's post. They let me in out of kindness. Help me with things. They bring me water, or firewood when it's cold, and the occasional barrel of honey... They're good people."
- (Hidden after selected) "We could use your help fighting the bandits."
- "Where's this coming from? You want an old man like me to fight? Here, take this potion. Consider that my help in your fight."
- Receive Potion of Cure Light Wounds x1
- (jaethal?) "A coward's excuse. How predictable."
- (Reveal Answer_0017, Answer_0007)
- (Answer_0017) (If PC has Gorum and didn't pass diplomacy check yet) "Coward! Gorum despises people like you!"
- "Good thing I don't worship him, then. Didn't get to my age by picking fights!"
- (Answer_0007) (If asked Oleg Leveton about Bokken) (Hidden after selected) (Diplomacy 16) "The bandits here bother you as much as Svetlana and Oleg — maybe more. Help us get rid of them for good!"
- [Succeeded at a Diplomacy check] Bokken scratches his head, then hums to himself and puffs his chest out. "Well, all right! I'll show those troublemakers! They'll learn better than to chase an old man around. Someone might even write up some verses about me. Maybe even heroic ones!" (+22xp)
- Linzi: Linzi gives you a worried glance, then turns to Bokken. "Please be careful. Go ahead and help, but leave the heroics to us, you hear?"
- [Unlocks] BokkenAid (72d548cfde938b04aa48a9e673649cac): set to 0
- [Failed a Diplomacy check] "I'd rather sit in the bushes and watch you and Oleg beat the daylights out of those thugs. Watching from a distance is more fun, you know?"
- [Succeeded at a Diplomacy check] Bokken scratches his head, then hums to himself and puffs his chest out. "Well, all right! I'll show those troublemakers! They'll learn better than to chase an old man around. Someone might even write up some verses about me. Maybe even heroic ones!" (+22xp)
- "We'll talk later."
