Dovesi Dran

Greeting

Hello, I'm Dovesi. I'm very pleased to meet you. Now that you're here, we can really start looking for that chest of gold. What I mean to say is, before you arrived, we all just sort of glanced around a bit. Now that we're all officially here, we can look in earnest!

Disp <= 30	Disp > 30	Disp >= 70
It's funny. I don't even know you, and already I don't like you.	This is all so strange, isn't it? I don't know why I was invited to come here, but the gold could really help my family. I do hope I find it.	You seem like a very nice person. I very much want to find the gold, but I wish you luck. May the best guest win. He he.
I'm sorry, but I don't feel much like talking right now. Someone has been killed! Don't you even care?	I... I can't believe it's true. One of us is dead... and everyone else is convinced it was no accident.	Why? Why would someone do this? The taking of a life is against every principal I hold dear. It's something I just can't understand.
Two people dead, and you're still alive. I'm sorry, but you're starting to make me nervous. Please go away.	Two of us, dead! Who would do this? And why? Is that why we're all here? To be killed like vermin? I feel like I'm going mad!	I don't care about the gold anymore. I just want to get out of here. I'm going to try all the windows and doors, and see if I can't get one open!
No.... no! You... you stay away from me! One of you is the killer... stay away from me!	Only three of us left... only three...	Only three of us left. I'm certainly no murderer, and I know it's not you. That leaves one person! We must protect ourselves... find weapons!
You... you're the only one left... By Azura, no! Please, please don't kill me. I beg of you! Spare my life! Aggghhh! starts combat	Please. Please help me. I don't want to die. I just want to go home. Go home... ends conversation	We must escape! Do you understand? We're the only two left! We're next! If we don't find a way out of here, we're going to die! ends conversation

Oh, can it really be true? Can the killer really be dead? This has been such a nightmare! I just want to find a way out of this house and go home.

Dovesi Dran

Not much to tell about me, really. I'm from Morrowind originally, but my family moved to Valenwood a few years ago.

Matilde Petit

Disp <= 30	Disp > 30	Disp >= 70
She's all right, I guess. Not that it's any business of yours.	Well, I don't really know her, but she seems like a very respectable old lady.	Honestly? I don't think she likes me. It's because I'm a Dunmer. I heard her say something to Neville, and it wasn't very nice.
So what are you trying to tell me? That Matilde is the killer? Why are you trying to turn me against her?	Well, she does seem genuinely upset that someone's been killed. Not that I'm ruling her out as a suspect, mind you.	I don't trust that old hag. She pretends she likes you, and then stabs you in the back. Who knows. Maybe she'll REALLY stab you in the back.
Okay, so I don't like Matilde. What makes you think I like you any better?	Could it be possible? Could an old lady be a murderer? She'd have the stomach for it, of that I'm sure.	At first I thought she was just a cranky old crone. Now I'm beginning to think she's a cold-blooded killer.
So you're telling me I should believe you? That Matilde is the killer? Why should I trust you? Get away from me!	I have no doubt that Matilde is capable of murder. But what about you? You're as much suspect in my eyes as she is.	It's her, you understand me? It's Matilde! She's the killer! She's the one doing this! We've got to kill her first! Do you understand me? starts combat
I... I never trusted her. But I never wanted to see her dead. Have you no compassion at all?	It's hard to believe she's dead. Why would someone want to murder an old woman?	Good, I'm glad she's dead. I can tell you that because we're friends. Matilde didn't like me just because I'm a Dunmer. She got what she deserved.

Nels the Naughty

Disp <= 30	Disp > 30	Disp >= 70
It's none of your business how I feel about him.	I wonder what makes him so "Naughty"? He seems nice enough to me.	Every now and then he looks over at me and smiles. I think he's sweet on me. If Nels finds the gold, maybe he'll want some company.
So, you think Nels did it, do you? I would appreciate you keeping your opinions to yourself.	I don't know what to make of all this, but I'm not sure I see Nels as a murderer.	Do you think he could have done it? He comes across as something of a drunk, but you never can tell what someone is capable of.
Look, I don't know who is responsible for this madness, so stop trying to taint my opinion of Nels.	I just don't know what to make of Nels anymore. He plays the bumbling drunkard, but he could very well be the killer.	Can I be honest with you? Nels won't stop looking at me. At first I was flattered. But now he's scaring me! He could be the killer! I could be next!
Either you or Nels is the killer! I can't trust either of you, so just stay away from me!	Please, just leave me alone! Either you or Nels is a murderer. I just don't know who to trust anymore!	It's Nels! He's the murderer! We have to get him before he gets us! Do you understand what I'm saying? We have to kill Nels! starts combat
Don't you even care that Nels is dead? Maybe you killed him!	The way he looked at me. It was flattering at first, and then... oh, who could have done this? Why would anyone kill Nels?	To be honest, I started getting a bad feeling about Nels. But now he's dead! I... I should have gotten to know him better. Now it's too late.

Neville

Disp <= 30	Disp > 30	Disp >= 70
I really don't know anything about him, so you'd be better off asking someone else.	He's a very serious man, but I guess that's normal for a retired soldier.	I know he's a retired soldier. But not just a soldier -- he was an officer in the Imperial Legion. I hate the Legion and everything it stands for. When those soldiers came to Morrowind, they persecuted my people and stole our lands. Neville may not be in the Legion anymore, but who knows what atrocities he committed.
I'm sorry, but someone has been murdered! I really don't want to talk about Neville right now.	Does being a soldier make him a good person? Does it make him above murder? I hardly think so.	I heard the others talking. Neville was a soldier for twenty years. He's used to killing, if you know what I'm saying.
Two people are dead. Could he really have done it? I... I just don't know...	Two people have been murdered, and neither of them was Neville. Watch your back around him.	Neville is a trained killer! That fascist pig killed those people, I just know it!
He's the killer, you idiot! Can't you see? He murdered all of those people!	He's the killer! Don't you see? We have to protect ourselves! We'll be next!	He killed them! All of those people! We... we have to get him before he gets us! We have to kill that murdering swine! starts combat
No, I didn't like the man. But why should you care? Please, just go away.	I... I don't understand. Who would kill him? And why? Is this about the gold?	All right, so I didn't like Neville. But the man was a trained soldier. He knew how to handle himself. Who could possibly have killed him?

Primo Antonius

Disp <= 30	Disp > 30	Disp >= 70
I'm sorry, but my feelings for Primo are really none of your concern.	He's very handsome. But please don't tell him I said so! Hehe!	It's pretty obvious that Primo comes from a wealthy family. He would never be interested in a girl like me, I'm afraid.
		I do hope Primo and I can be, you know...friends. He's so handsome. And he lives a life I can only dream of. I can make him so happy in so many ways.
You can't possibly think that Primo had anything to do with the murder, do you? That's madness!	Primo seems kind of nice. I just can't imagine him killing anyone.	I... I rather like Primo. He's not like the other boys I've known. He has... class. He could never have killed anyone.
Don't try to turn me against Primo! For all I know, you could be the killer!	Two people lie dead. Primo could have done it, I know. He's young, and strong. Still, I don't want to believe that.	I know Primo could be the killer, but I just don't want to believe it's possible. If... if he likes me, he could take me away with him...
He can't be the killer! He can't! I won't believe it! Get away from me!	Please... No... Primo can't be the killer. But it's either him... or you...	Oh, Azura, no! It's Primo! He's the only one left! He killed them... killed them all! We have to protect ourselves! We have to kill him first! starts combat
Get away from me! You're the last person I want to talk to about Primo!	I... I wanted to get to know him. Be his friend. Maybe... maybe more. I can't believe he's gone.	Primo was my chance, do you understand me? He was wealthy! He could take me away someplace! Whoever did this will pay!

Matilde Petit

Greeting

The sixth guest has finally arrived! Well it's about time! Do you know how long we've been waiting? It seems like an age! Whoever invited us here must at least know us, don't you think? In any event, we're all stuck here together, so we might as well get acquainted. The rest of us have already traded introductions. I'm Matilde Petit. The others are Nels the Naughty, Neville, Dovesi Dran and Primo Antonius. Now, who might you be? Please, tell us a little bit about yourself.

Dark08Choice1

Disp <= 30	Disp > 30	Disp >= 70
Now you listen to me. I don't like you. Understand? So why don't we both just stay out of each other's way, and be done with it.	Have you spoken to the other guests yet? I suggest you get to know everyone. Who knows how long we'll be stuck in this house together?	Hello, dear! Listen, I've been thinking. Why don't we form a kind of alliance? If either one of us finds the chest of gold, we split it, 50/50! With the two of us working together, we're sure to find the chest before anyone else. What do you say? Do you want to team up? Dark08Choice2
What do you want from me? For all I know, you could be the killer!	Oh, this is just horrible! Who could do such a thing? Who could kill a defenseless person in cold blood? Greed truly brings out the worst in people.	Please, sweetie, stay close to me. The killer might strike again, whoever he... or she... is.
Two people are dead, and for all I know you could be the killer!	My goodness, two of us are now dead! What's going on in this place?	I've been trying to figure out who our host might be. With two people dead, it almost seems like he set this party up just to kill us all!
Gasp! Oh... oh, it's you. What do you want? Why are you looking at me that way?	Gasp! Oh... oh. I'm sorry. I... my nerves. I just want to get out of here. Three people have been murdered! I'm so very frightened!	Gasp! Oh, thank goodness it's you, sweetie! Please, don't wander too far away. I feel safe with you.
Aggh! They're dead! All dead! And you... you're the only one left. It's you! Oh, gracious, no! Stay away from me! starts combat	Aggh! They're dead! All of them, dead! Why? What's going on here? We need to get out of this place! ends conversation	We've got to get out of here! You understand me? We're the only ones left! We need to find a way out of this house! Come on! ends conversation

Oh, hello sweetie. So, no luck yet in finding the gold, I gather? I've been looking as well, but haven't found so much as a clue.

Dovesi Dran

Disp <= 30	Disp > 30	Disp >= 70
What about her? She's a Dark Elf, and that's bad enough. I may even like her less than you, if that's possible.	The little Dark Elf? She seems a nice enough girl. But to be perfectly honest, I've never trusted their kind.	Personally, I think she's a little floozy. She's been eyeing young Primo Antonius, probably smells his wealth.
Someone has been brutally murdered, yet you want to question me about that little Dark Elf tramp? Go away, you fool.	If you ask me, the Dark Elf is our killer. They're an evil and vengeful people, all of them.	That little tramp is as guilty as sin, you hear me? She's the killer, and if we don't keep our eyes on her she'll do it again!
She's a Dark Elf and a harlot, and for all I know she's a murderer too! Now leave me be, you cretin!	Isn't it obvious? Two of us have been murdered in cold blood, and that little tramp hasn't batted an eyelash. You figure it out.	Don't trust her, sweetie. Not a thing she says. If she tries to get you alone anywhere, get away as fast as you can! She's a cold-blooded killer!
You bloody half-wit! Do I have to spell it out for you? She's a killer! A murderer!	I knew it! It's her! That Dark Elf tramp killed them all! We've got to get out of this place!	It's up to us now, don't you see? Dovesi did it! She murdered everyone! And now she wants to murder us too! We have to get her first! starts combat
So she's dead. What do you want from me? Flowers? A eulogy? I think not.	Yes, the poor girl is dead. What a shame. Well, I guess she won't be finding the gold, hmm? Hehehehehe.	One less Dark Elf in the world. And now there's one less person to find the gold, as well. It's a good day, don't you think?

Matilde Petit

That's right. It's a Breton name. I'll have you know the Petits are one of High Rock's oldest and most respected noble families.

Nels the Naughty

Disp <= 30	Disp > 30	Disp >= 70
He reminds me of you. Uncultured, unwashed and generally uninteresting.	He's a Nord. Mead-swilling barbarians, all of them.	Oh, that man disgusts me! I find his entire manner offensive. Why, just before you got here he told the most off-color joke about an Argonian maid.
Even if I do think Nels is the killer, I wouldn't share my thoughts with the likes of you.	He's an obnoxious drunkard, I know, but I'm not sure if I see him as the murdering type.	You think Nels might be the killer? He plays the buffoon, but it could all be an act. He is a Nord, and they're such a savage, uncivilized people.
Why are you trying to turn me against the Nord? Maybe you did, and you're just trying to cover your tracks!	Well, the list of suspects is certainly getting smaller. I didn't think the swine had it in him, but now I'm not so sure.	Two people dead, yet Nels still lives? I don't think that's a coincidence. Nords are savages, born to kill. I just know he did it!
My feelings about the Nord are my own business! Leave me be!	You and Nels... both still alive. One of you is a cold-blooded killer! I... I never did trust that Nord....	Oh, please! Save me! Save me from that savage! He'll kill me and then feast on my flesh! That's what Nords do! Please, I don't want to die!
He was a buffoon, but I didn't wish him dead, you cold-hearted villain!	All right, so I didn't care much for the man. That doesn't mean I wanted him dead.	So, Nels is dead. I don't condone murder, of course, but I can't say he'll be missed. As a rule, I find Nords rather... vulgar.

Neville

Disp <= 30	Disp > 30	Disp >= 70
What do you care? He seems like a very respectable person. That's more than I can say for you.	From what I gathered, he's a retired soldier. He's been all across the Empire fighting in various campaigns. Goodness, he's handsome....	Well, if I can be perfectly honest with you, I find Neville quite attractive. Redguards are so... exotic. Don't you think?
Neville used to be a soldier. I'm sticking close to him. He makes me feel safe.	What, you don't think Neville is the killer, do you? That's absurd! He's a gentleman and a retired soldier, not a murderer!	Neville has a strong sense of justice, I can tell. If we find out who the killer is, he'll take care of things, if you know what I mean.
Do... do you think he could have done it? I mean, he is a retired soldier. He's killed before. Oh, dear, this can't be happening!	You're trying to turn me against him, aren't you? Just leave me alone!	I just don't know what to think anymore, or who to trust. Neville seems like such a decent man, but how can I know for sure?
You want me to mistrust him, don't you! You want to turn me against him! Maybe... maybe you're the murderer!	I'm no murderer, so that means it's either you or Neville. Just stay away from me! I don't trust either one of you!	I know you're no killer. That means it's Neville! Oh, I'm so frightened! Please protect me from him!
He's dead, and one of you killed him! I hate you all!	I... I can't believe he's dead. Such a strong, handsome man...	Why would one of us kill Neville? What if they try to get the rest of us? You'll protect me, won't you?

Primo Antonius

Disp <= 30	Disp > 30	Disp >= 70
That young man has more nobility in his pinky finger than you have in your entire body, you uncultured swine.	He's young, well-educated and obviously full of himself. Not much different than any young nobleman, really.	It's obvious that young Primo comes from wealth. A chest full of gold would be mere spending change for him.
It's obvious that young Primo comes from wealth. A chest full of gold would be mere spending change for him.	Primo is a young man of refinement. This murder must be quite a shock for him.	I worry about the boy. What if the killer is after money? Primo is quite wealthy. He could be the next victim!
Two people lie dead, and all you can do is question me about that sweet boy? I'm beginning to think something is seriously wrong with you.	The poor lad is handling all of this better than I expected. It's a testament to his noble bearing, I'm sure.	If I may confide in you, dear friend, I'm very worried about the poor boy. The trauma of murders... it could scar him for life! He deserves better.
You... you're trying to turn me against that sweet boy. Make me think he's the murderer! Get away from me, you fiend!	There are only three of us left. All those people... dead. And the killer had to be either Primo... or you!	Oh, my heavens! Primo must be the killer! I... I never thought it could be him. Please... please! You've got to protect me from him!
Leave me alone, you ghoul! Can't you see I'm mourning for that poor, sweet boy?	He was so young... so innocent. That boy was destined for greatness. Who could have done such a thing?	I just can't believe he's dead. He was like a young, beautiful prince. I hope whoever did this can live with themselves.

Nels the Naughty

Greeting

Well, hello there. Nels is my name. Some call me Naughty, but don't you believe it! Hahahaha!

Disp <= 30	Disp > 30	Disp >= 70
It's funny. I like just about everyone, but the very sight of you makes me sick. Why don't you go look for the gold someplace else, friend.	I'll let you in on a little secret. If I find the chest of gold, I'm going to open a tavern. The Hoary Boar! It's been my dream since I was a boy.	Well, my friend, the search is on, eh? I wonder how much gold is actually in the chest? A thousand pieces of gold? Ten thousand? I guess it all depends on the size of the chest. The bigger the better, of course, but where would our mysterious host have hidden such a thing?
Someone has been killed. I don't suppose you know anything about that, now do you?	Someone's been murdered! By Ysmir's beard, I need a drink!	Have you heard, my friend? One of our fellow guests has been murdered! This bodes ill for our stay, and our search for the gold.

Ha ha! We did it, my friend! The killer is dead, and this nightmare is just about over. All we have to do now is find a way out of here!

Dovesi Dran

Disp <= 30	Disp > 30	Disp >= 70
She's an innocent young girl, and she doesn't need people like you asking questions about her.	Dovesi is a sweet young lass. She reminds me of someone I knew. But perhaps we should talk about something else.	Let me confide something in you, my friend. Dovesi is the spitting image of my own daughter! Her skin is darker, of course, but that sweet face... My daughter was killed, you see. A few years back, by bandits. I'm sorry, please forgive a father's heavy heart.
You want to talk to me about Dovesi? Someone's been murdered, you idiot! There are more important matters to discuss right now!	The poor lass looks upset. But if she's anything like my daughter, she's tougher than she looks. She'll be all right.	Let me tell you something. If anyone thinks they're going to hurt that poor Dark Elf girl, they're going to have to get through me first.
Two people are dead, you pathetic little worm. Take your gossip mongering someplace else.	She's frightened, of course. No one that young should be exposed to such horrors.	So far the killer has claimed two victims. If they plan on adding Dovesi to that list, they can think again. I won't let any harm come to that girl.
Only three of us left, and one of us is a murderer. Do you expect me to believe it's that sweet girl? You murdering scum! I'll kill you!	She's afraid for her life, as we should be! There's someone else in this house, my friend. Someone hiding somewhere, killing us off one by one!	I swear to you, my friend, if anyone tries to harm that sweet girl I will tear them limb from limb! Whoever killed the others will strike again. They're getting into this house somehow, which means there must be a way out as well! We need to find the secret exit and escape this madhouse!
Who could have done this? Who could have killed a sweet, innocent girl? Was it you? So help me, if I find out you're the one who did this....	I..I can't believe she's dead. Seeing her body lying there.... It's like my poor daughter all over again.	No... no! When I looked into Dovesi's face it was like peering at my own daughter. I... I feel like I've lost her all over again.

Matilde Petit

Disp <= 30	Disp > 30	Disp >= 70
I ain't got much to say about the old lady, and even if I did, I wouldn't say it to you.	Kind of stuck-up, that one. Right before you got here I told the funniest joke about an Argonian maid, and she didn't even crack a smile.	Heh, you should have seen the old biddy trying to talk to young Primo Antonius. She may be a noble, but he looked down on her like a scullery maid.
Can't this wait, huh? Someone's been murdered and I've got better things to do than gossip about an old woman.	The old biddy seems flustered about the murder, but who isn't, right?	It seems she's upset about the murder, but there's something else. It's almost like she's glad there's less competition for the gold. Greedy old bat.
Have you no compassion? There are two bloody corpses lying in this place, and all you can do is question me about that old woman?	She looks pretty shaken, doesn't she? I can't tell if it's genuine fear or just really good acting. She's as much a suspect as anyone, don't forget.	I'll be honest, friend. I don't know what to think about Matilde. Yeah, she seems frightened, but she's also still alive. Why wasn't she killed? She may look old and weak, but that's never stopped a murderer before, has it? Don't doubt for a second that she couldn't be the killer.
What, you think the old woman is the killer, is that it? Is that what you'd have me believe? Trying to cover your tracks?	She's either a frightened old woman or a cold-blooded killer! I don't know whether I should comfort her or hit her over the head with a rock!	There are only three of us left! You and I are no killers, so that leaves the old woman! Don't be fooled by her appearance. Matilde is no weakling. She killed the others in cold blood, and she'll try to kill us next! I'm not about to stand around waiting to die! We need to kill Matilde! startcombat
She's dead. You wouldn't happen to know anything about that, now would you?	What kind of sick, demented person could cut down an old woman in cold blood? It proves that evil truly does exist in this world.	Some bloodthirsty monster killed that woman in cold blood. It's obvious to me one of the other guests killed her to eliminate the competition. Assuming that's true, who's next? You? Me? We need to keep our eyes open, friend. And we'd do well not to trust the others.

Nels the Naughty

Ah, don't let the name fool you. I had a bit too much mead a few years back, and there was this tavern wench.... Anyway, just call me Nels.

Neville

Disp <= 30	Disp > 30	Disp >= 70
He's an Imperial Legion bulldog. Scum, if you ask me. Kind of like you.	Once an Imperial Legion bulldog, always an Imperial Legion bulldog. I've seen his kind before. He cares about laws and regulations... not people.	I will confide something in you, my friend. I despise Neville and all his Imperial Legion ilk! They are useless, uncaring tools of corruption! Three years ago, my village in Skyrim was attacked by bandits. We went to the nearby Imperial Legion outpost, but they refused to help us! My dear, sweet daughter Olga was killed that day. She was murdered, and the Legion would do nothing to help her. Neville and his kind are scum.
Right now I'm more concerned with the person who's been left for dead in this very house, not with that Legion dog.	He's like everyone else in the Imperial Legion. Someone needs help, someone is getting killed, and they're nowhere to be found. Worthless.	I really have to wonder where Neville was when someone was getting slaughtered just a few rooms away. Maybe he was busy looking for the chest of gold. Or maybe he was right next to the victim, with his hand on the hilt of a dagger. Think about it.
By Ysmir's dragon blood, what's wrong with you? Two people are dead! It's hardly the time to chat about that Legion lackey!	Two of us killed, and where was the stalwart Legionnaire? That's what I'd like to know. He spent his life protecting the citizens of Tamriel? Ha!	With two of us now dead, it seems like the others are looking to Neville for protection. The fools! He'll kill them like he did the others! That's right, I think Neville is the murderer. I can't prove it yet, but he'll slip up, just you wait. Whatever you do, don't turn your back on him.
Three guests have been slaughtered, and you want to ask me about that Legion dog? I don't know who I hate more, you or him!	Guests are dropping like flies around here, but not Neville, he's still in one piece. That tells me he's either very lucky, or a cold-blooded killer.	That sniveling Legion dog must die! Do you understand me? He's the murderer! He killed all those people! He must pay for what he's done! starts combat
The man is dead, you horse's ass! There's nothing more to tell!	I may not have liked the man, but I'm particularly troubled by his death. Neville was a capable fighter. Who could have killed him, and so quickly?	You want to know how I really feel about Neville's death? I'm afraid. I may hate the Imperial Legion, but its members are trained warriors. Neville was probably the most capable fighter among us, yet he was cut down silently, just a few rooms away. I fear one of us is not who they appear. This isn't the work of some greedy house guest. There's an assassin among us, you mark my words. We must watch ourselves at every step.

Primo Antonius

Disp <= 30	Disp > 30	Disp >= 70
He's somewhere around here. Why don't you stop wasting my time and go ask him yourself.	Seems like a nice enough kid. A little too rich for his own good, maybe, but I've met worse.	Primo is young and rich. I can sense a good, decent person in there somewhere. He just has to get his priorities straight.
It's really none of your business what I think about him, now is it?	I can't imagine someone like Primo has seen much death and suffering. This murder must be quite a shock to him.	Whoever the killer is would have to be strong, and quick. Now, I'm not saying Primo is our murderer, but you have to admit it's at least possible.
I'm not sure if you're really concerned for the kid or trying to convince me he's a murderer. Either way, I ain't listenin'.	I'm not sure what to think of the kid anymore. All I know is that two of the guests have been murdered, and he's just dandy. Makes you wonder.	Let me ask you something, friend. Why is Primo even here? The rest of us need the money, but his family is wealthy beyond measure. Maybe he was bored, or maybe he just wanted to do some slumming. Or maybe he's a trained assassin hired to kill us all, one by one. Sound crazy? Well these are crazy times, my friend.
By Ysmir, you've got nerve! Three people are dead! What, are you trying to turn me against Primo now?	This is madness! There are now only three of us left -- myself, you and Primo. I know I'm not the killer, but what about Primo? What about you?	Besides you and me, he's the only one left! By Ysmir, that boy will pay for what he's done! Come, we must kill Primo before he kills us! starts combat
The lad's dead, you uncaring fool! Now get away from me before you join him!	That poor boy didn't deserve to die. He was rich! He had no business even being here, looking for treasure that might not even exist.	Primo being here made no sense. Whoever our host is, why would he invite someone who didn't even need the money? It's as if we were invited for another reason altogether. Think about it. We're trapped in this house, with no way out. And now people start dying. I think poor Primo was tricked, just like the rest of us. If we're not careful we'll end up dead too. You mark my words.

Neville

Greeting

Well, that's that. The killer is dead, and this nightmare is just about over. All we have to do now is find a way out of here.

Dovesi Dran

Disp <= 30	Disp > 30	Disp >= 70
She's a Dark Elf. What, you blind as well as dumb?	Ah yes, Dovesi Dran. She's a Dark Elf, originally from Morrowind, or so I hear. I get the sense she doesn't like me very much.	Dovesi is a Dark Elf. They call themselves Dunmer. When I was young, I spent some time stationed at Fort Moonmoth on their homeland of Morrowind. I have a great respect for the Dunmer people. They are strong and noble, and generally understand the importance of law and discipline. Unfortunately, Dovesi doesn't seem to like me very much. But I don't blame her. The young ones tend to have problems with authority figures.
I'm not sure I like your line of questioning, friend. Someone's been killed. Show a little respect.	Dovesi's upset by the murder but she'll be okay. I get the sense she's seen worse things in her life.	Right now my main concern is figuring out who the killer is. She may be young, but Dovesi is a suspect just like everyone else. I've seen enough in my time to know that anyone is capable of murder if they have the right motivation.
Why are you so concerned with my feelings toward a young Dark Elf girl? You wouldn't be so stupid as to try and turn me against her...	The girl's either upset that those people were killed or she's an excellent actress. She's still a suspect as far as I'm concerned.	You want my honest opinion? I think Nels is the killer. But I haven't yet ruled out that Dovesi may be working with him.
		You want to know the truth? I thought for sure Nels was the killer. But with him dead, my bets are now on Dovesi.
I find it odd that so many people have been killed, yet the two of you still live. Looks to me like you two are working together.	So, three of us left -- you, Dovesi and myself. The list of suspects is certainly getting smaller. With Nels dead, my eye is on Dovesi.	You've helped me come to my senses, friend. There's no time for evidence gathering, no time to collect proof! Dovesi is the murderer! That little Dark Elf urchin killed three people in cold blood, and now she's going to try to kill us! We can't let that happen! Follow me, my friend, and watch my back. Dovesi must be brought to justice, and I'm the one to do it! Let's go! starts combat
She was a child, and some sick murdering dog struck her down in cold blood. I swear, if I find out you did this I'll kill you with my bare hands.	Dovesi couldn't have been any more than fifteen years old. What threat could she have posed? Why was she murdered? Damn it, I mean to find out!	I was in the Legion for a great many years, my friend. I saw a lot of horrible things, including the murders of children. It made no sense then, it makes no sense now. But don't you worry. I vow to bring Dovesi's killer to justice!
She murdered all those innocent people, and I delivered justice, just like any Legion soldier would. I... I only did what I thought was right...

I would have sworn with my life that Nels was the killer, but now he's dead as well! Dovesi is now my top suspect. (seems to be set to only be spoken when he's dead...)

Matilde Petit

Disp <= 30	Disp > 30	Disp >= 70
What's your interest in the old woman? You'd do well to keep your questions to yourself.	Matilde seems like an upstanding citizen of the Empire. She respects the law and recognizes the Legion as Tamriel's greatest defense against evil.	If I may be honest, I feel a bit sorry for the old woman. She comes from a noble family, I'm sure, but seems a lot less well off than she should be.
She's upset, you idiot! Murder has that effect on people!	The poor woman's rather upset. Someone of her bearing isn't accustomed to the horror of murder.	She's afraid, and for good reason. If the killer strikes again, they may very well pick an easy target, like Matilde. She needn't worry, though. I'm a trained soldier with over twenty years experience dealing with situations like this. On my honor, this killer will be caught and dealt with!
Excuse me? You want to question me about Matilde? Two people have been murdered, you fool! Get your priorities straight!	Matilde is old, and frail. The shock of two people being murdered is surely too much for the poor woman.	There's a killer in here and Matilde needs protection. Who better to defend her but me? I'm keeping my eye on the old woman, don't you worry.
I suppose you're trying to turn me against Matilde, eh? Make me think she's the killer. I've got news for you friend -- I know it's you! I can't prove it yet, but just you wait. You try to hurt that poor old woman and I'll cut you in two!	Three people have been killed, and now Matilde thinks she's next. I guess only the killer knows for sure. Isn't that right?	Three people have been killed, and the only ones left are you, me and a little old lady. One of us is a murderer, and my money's on the old lady. Don't let her looks deceive you, friend. I've seen black widows like her before! Her crimes must not go unpunished! Justice is at hand! starts combat
Someone slaughtered that poor old woman like a lamb. I've got my eyes on you. Make one false move and I'll come down on you like a hammer.	How could this happen? How could I have let my guard down. That poor old woman is dead, and I should have protected her.... [sic]	Matilde's murder saddens me friend, but not for the reason you may think. Ten years ago, when I was in my prime, this never would have happened. Matilde's murder saddens me friend, but not for the reason you may think. Ten years ago, when I was in my prime, this never would have happened.

Nels the Naughty

Disp <= 30	Disp > 30	Disp >= 70
Why don't you and that barbarian climb back under your rock.	Nels is a Nord, and like all Nords he's a lawless barbarian with no respect for authority.	Know what I think? I think that barbarian will do anything to get his hands on the chest of gold. His kind are greedy and vicious, all of them. Trust me, I know. I was stationed at Fort Frostmoth for a few years, on the isle of Solstheim. Those Nords are a bunch of animal-worshipping savages. They're all the same, full of mead and something to prove. We lost a lot of good men up there. A lot of good men.
Someone's been killed, and you know what my real problem is? Trying to decide who did it, you or that worthless Nord.	When people start turning up dead, it's usually a good idea to keep your eyes on any nearby Nords, if you understand what I'm saying.	Nords are raised to be cold-blooded killers. Don't take your eyes off Nels if you value your life. I'll bet anything he's our murderer.
Now this is interesting. Two people turn up dead, and you're more concerned with my feelings toward the Nord. If I didn't know better, I'd say you were trying to turn me against him to cover your own tracks.	Two people are dead, and the only thing the Nord can do is dive into a bottle of beer. If you ask me it's all an act. Nels killed those people and pretty soon he'll come for the rest of it. Don't you worry, when I gather more evidence, I'll take that scum down!	That mead-swilling barbarian killed those two people, I'm sure of it! I don't have the proof just yet, but I'm watching him. Don't you worry, my friend. Nels won't get away with this. Not on my watch.
I was positive he was the killer until you opened your mouth. Now I'm not so sure.	My gut instincts tell me Nels is the killer, but still I lack the proof I need to confront him. Maybe you can convince me I'm right.	My friend, in talking to you, it's become clear what must be done. I have no doubts in my mind that Nels is the killer. We must take him down! We've got to kill that cold-loving bastard before he turns on us! You cover me while I strike the killing blow! starts combat
The Nord has been murdered. Maybe I'll get lucky and the same thing will happen to you. Unless, of course, you're the one who did it....	Can't say I'm sorry to see there's one less Nord in the world. Still, I don't appreciate someone getting murdered right under my nose.	One less Nord in the world is something I'd normally cheer about, but the fact that he was murdered by a fellow guest does put a damper on things.
Nels is dead. You know what that means? You've just shot to the top of my suspect list. You make one wrong move and I'll break you!

Neville

I'm a Redguard, though I've never actually been to Hammerfell. I was born here in Cyrodiil. My family has been in the Legion for three generations.

Primo Antonius

Disp <= 30	Disp > 30	Disp >= 70
(PC is male) He's young, rich and handsome. Basically the complete opposite of you.	Primo's a blue blood, a noble through-and-through. He thinks he's better than most people, and in most cases he's right.	I'll confess that I have no idea why Primo is here. The kid's got more wealth than the rest of us combined. He sure doesn't need a chest of gold. Maybe he's incredibly greedy, but I don't think so. My guess is that Primo is so bored he simply has nothing better to do.
(PC is female) He's young, rich and handsome. That's way out of your league, tramp.
I hope you're not suggesting that Primo is the murderer? I'm the trained investigator here. Just keep your mouth shut and stay out of my way.	Well, when somebody gets murdered, everyone nearby could be considered a suspect. That includes young Primo.	To be honest, my instincts tell me the kid isn't the killer. Sure he's a bit obnoxious, but that doesn't make him capable of murder.
I don't really know what you're trying to accomplish, but questioning me about Primo with two people lying dead just makes me suspect you even more.	Primo may be young, but he's no fool. He knows that the murder of two innocent people doesn't bode well for his own safety.	Primo may be young, but he looks strong, and I'm sure he could handle himself in a fight. I think I'm going to enlist his help. I'll talk to Primo, give him a bit of encouragement. If he and I are vigilant, we may prevent the killer from claiming another victim.
I've come across your kind before. People get murdered, and you ask questions. It's a sure sign of a killer with a guilty conscience. Watch yourself.	All right, I'll be honest. I'm not quite sure what to think about Primo anymore. My list of suspects is getting pretty damned small as it is.	It's all starting to make sense now. Primo didn't need the money. He has more than any of us. Enough, in fact, to give away an entire chest of gold! That rich little bastard lured us all here by appealing to our greed! Don't you see? He considers us all low class, and wants us exterminated! That high-born little worm won't get away with this! He'll pay with his life! Come on, you watch my back. I'm going to take Primo down! starts combat
He was a young man and now he's dead, slaughtered like a lamb. I've got my eyes on you, stranger. Don't you forget that.	I'm still putting the pieces together. Was Primo murdered for his money? Was it something about the chest of gold? I'm not sure yet, but I'm close.	Primo was a young man, strong and full of life. Surely he would have been able to defend himself against an attacker.

Primo Antonius

Greeting

So, you finally showed up. It's about time. People of my station are not accustomed to waiting.

Disp <= 30	Disp > 30	Disp >= 70
I was just beginning to think I had something in common with the other guests. And then you showed up.	Well, here we all are. It's funny how money can bring people together, don't you think?	So, are you ready to search for the chest of gold? I'm confident I'll find it. Not that I need the money, of course. My family is quite wealthy.
Get away from me, peasant. Someone has been murdered, and I'm rather unnerved by the whole thing.	Did you hear? Someone has been murdered! One of us! One of the guests!	I'm beginning to get a bad feeling about all of this. I'd leave right now, if I could. The money means nothing to me. I just thought it would be fun.
Two people are dead, and for all I know you could have killed them! Just leave me alone, you worthless peasant!	Two people are now dead. And for what? A trunk full of coins? How pathetic.	Dear friend, have you heard? Two of the guests now lie dead! If I find out who did it, I may have to take matters into my own hands.
You... you're still alive... For all I know, you're the killer! You stand your ground, or so help me they'll [sic] be blood between us.	Three people now dead, and yet the two of us still live. Do you think I'm the killer? Because I most certainly wonder the same thing about you.	Dear friend, three of the guests have been killed! You and I, we must stay close. Band together, for mutual protection!
You... you murdering dog! How could you have killed all those people? For the gold, is that it? You filthy peasant! starts combat	I... I don't understand. You're the only one left. Why weren't you killed? No... no... it can't be... disposition -30; ends conversation	Listen to me! The others, they're all dead! Someone has been coming in here and killing them! That means there must be a way out!

It's... It's finally over. The killer is dead. We just... We just need to get out of here...

Dovesi Dran

Disp <= 30	Disp > 30	Disp >= 70
My feelings toward her are really none of your business.	She's quite beautiful, isn't she? A little young, perhaps, and not exactly high-born, but she possesses a unique elegance.	Can I be honest with you, my friend? I find Dovesi... captivating. She possesses a beauty beyond compare. Maybe you could do me a favor? If you speak with her, put in a good word for me, would you? I would be forever in your debt.
Do my ears deceive me, or are you actually suggesting Dovesi might be the one behind the murder? Back away now, cretin.	She seems very upset by the murder. I do hope she'll be all right.	I can tell the murder is weighing heavily on her heart. She seems such a paradox to me. So gentle and beautiful, yet so strong...
She's upset, you bufoon, just like the rest of us! Two people have been murdered! I hope you're not suggesting she could be the killer!	The poor girl! She's too young, too innocent to be exposed to these horrible murders. I hope she's holding up all right.	I don't mean to sound like a ghoul, but with two people murdered and Dovesi obviously upset, this may be my chance to get close to her. You know, offer her comfort and support during this difficult time. Besides, I want to watch over her, make sure she stays safe.
You fiend! Are you suggesting Dovesi is the murderer? You'd do well to watch your mouth, and your back!	Dovesi is young and weak, yet the killer left her alive. Why? She couldn't possibly have anything to do with the murders... could she?	How could I have been so naive, so stupid? We must stick together my friend, for Dovesi is surely the murderer! We must strike before she does! starts combat
You're not even worthy enough to mention her name, you low-born parasite. Now get away from me before YOU wind up dead!	She was so beautiful. And now she's gone...	Who? Who among us is vile enough to take the life of such a beautiful, precious creature? If I find out who did this, they will pay with their life!
		To think, I actually had feelings for that wretched witch! Thank the gods she's dead. Now... Now we're safe. We are safe... aren't we?

Matilde Petit

Disp <= 30	Disp > 30	Disp >= 70
The old woman? I'd put her in the same class as you, actually - a peasant.	The old woman? She's quite a pest, really. I think she's gotten it into her head that I need mothering, or something. She is sorely mistaken.	Apparently the poor old woman thinks she is from a well-to-do family. Truth is, I have servants with more nobility in their blood than her.
Is there something wrong with you? Someone has been murdered! My feelings about that old crone are hardly important right now!	Something tells me the murder of one of the guests isn't going to stop Matilde from searching for the money. She strikes me as the greedy type.	Now that someone's been killed, Matilde may be a little frightened for her own safety, but she's still more concerned with finding the hidden gold. Matilde claims to be from one of High Rock's most distinguished noble families, but I have a feeling their fortune has long been squandered.
What are you doing? Trying to turn me against her? What's the matter, trying to cover your tracks?	She seems frightened, like the rest of us. I bet now she's regretting ever stepping foot in this house, gold or no.	The more people that drop dead, the more annoying Matilde becomes. She keeps watching over me like some kind of worried grandmother. If the killer strikes again, maybe they'll do me a favor and take her out next.
What, are you telling me Matilde is the killer? I don't know what to believe! You just stay away from me!	At first I thought Matilde was just a cloying old hag, but now I realize she could be the killer!	It's her! Don't you see? She's the only one left! The only one left alive! We've got to get her before she can get us! Do you understand? starts combat
No, I didn't really care for her, you commoner scum, but I never wanted anything like this to happen to her!	The old woman is dead! Murdered! Cut down in this very house! But why? Did she find the gold, and someone wanted it for their own?	Between you and me, I think Matilde found the gold, and one of the others killed her for it! Maybe that means the rest of us are safe. If that's the case then the killer got what he was after, and the rest of us needn't worry about our own safety.

Nels the Naughty

Disp <= 30	Disp > 30	Disp >= 70
He's a Nord. Even a complete idiot could see that. So what does that say about you?	There's something about Nels I can't quite place. He's not from money, that's obvious. But I don't think he's quite the buffoon he seems, either.	Nels is a drunk. He's doesn't even try to hide that fact. But what else is he? When the liquor has dried, what remains of the man? I think Nels drinks to forget, maybe about some tragedy in his life. He plays the buffoon, but I sense a deep sadness in him.
Are you trying to insinuate that Nels might be the killer? Maybe I think you did it. After all, murder is a common crime of the... low-born.	Nels seems just as unnerved as the rest of us that someone has been killed, but he seems to find solace in a bottle.	Before the body turned up, I got the sense that Nels was a bit of a drunkard. But he seems truly unnerved now, and is drinking rather excessively.
Damn it man, two people are dead! Have you nothing better to do than question me about the Nord?	He's drinking even more than he was before. Is it because he's afraid, or feeling guilty?	To be honest, I'm not sure if I trust him. He's a hard drinker, but there's something more. Something in his eyes, hard and calculating.
You want me to think Nels is the killer, is that it? Maybe you did it, eh? Maybe you're just trying to turn me against him!	I just don't know what to think. I had my doubts about Nels, and he is still alive. Could it be true? Could he have killed all of them?	I was right about him! He's been doing it, he's the killer! My friend... you and I have to end this. We must kill Nels before he kills us! starts combat
He's dead, and one of us killed him. Maybe it was you, eh? Maybe he found the gold, and you murdered him for it!	Someone killed the man, but who? And for what reason? We may never know.	I was thinking, maybe Nels found the chest of gold, and one of the others killed him for it! We've got to be careful, my friend, or we could be next!

Neville

Disp <= 30	Disp > 30	Disp >= 70
Why don't you go ask him yourself? Or maybe you're afraid? You should be.	He reminds me of the guards under my father's employ. Strict, no-nonsense, and ready to fight at a moment's notice.	I know he's a retired Imperial Legion officer. Apparently, he's been in campaigns all across the Empire, from Skyrim to Morrowind. I also get the sense that he's very eager to find the gold. I can't imagine his life of servitude to the Empire left him with much to retire on.
What are you getting at? Are you suggesting that Neville is the killer? Take your suspicions someplace else, you low-born worm.	He seems on edge, doesn't he? I guess you can take the man out of the Legion, but you can never take the Legion out of the man.	Neville seems different now that someone has been killed. More alert, more aware. Something tells me he's not going to take all of this lying down. He's a trained soldier, after all. I bet if anyone can figure out what's going on here, it will be him.
Look, I don't know what kind of information you're after, but I won't help you. Just go away.	It seems that with each murder, Neville becomes that much more aware. If I didn't know better, I'd say he's planning on catching the killer himself.	Well, Neville is a trained soldier. He was in the Imperial Legion for twenty years, or so I've heard. He certainly knows how to kill. Still, I don't think he's the murderer. No, quite the contrary. I think he takes the murders personally, feels he should have protected the victims.
What are you saying? That Neville is the killer? Why should I trust a low-born dog like you? Get away from me!	I... I thought he was hunting the killer. Now I don't know what to think! I don't trust him, or you! Stay away from me!	I was wrong! Don't you see? I thought Neville was trying to catch the killer! But he IS the killer! We need to find a way out of here! starts combat
He's dead, you peasant! There's nothing more to tell!	Neville was strong, a soldier. If he was murdered, this does not bode well for the rest of us!	My friend, I am truly worried! Neville was a strong and capable man, a soldier of twenty years! The rest of us will be easy prey for the killer now!

Primo Antonius

It's a regal name, from a rather regal family. Indeed, my father owns more property than the East Empire Company!
