No, you don't have to use headers when you add dialogue. I suggest that you look at the page for her husband Gogan for an example on how it is usually done. We always use italics and fills in small explanations between the bits of dialogue. Good luck! --Krusty 17:36, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
ok i did it but i'm not sure that's what she says when you first talk to her cause i did the quest a long time ago--GUM!!! 22:18, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
That is okay. If you want to get "serious" with dialogue, may I suggest that you create a new character so you're always able to check the NPCs "very first greeting"? That way, you will be able to add a whole lot more. Anyway, thanks for the addition! --Krusty 09:10, 18 March 2010 (UTC)

She Acts Like An Evidence Chest[edit]

I just completed the Siren's Deception Quest.

I have a number of stolen items in my inventory I use regularly. While still at the farmhouse I checked my inventory to see that all my stolen items are gone. I had not been arrested, I did have Signy Home-Wrecker attack me when they encountered me in Anvil. This happened when I put on the Gray Cowl of Nocturnal, and I guess my infamy set her off. I removed the cowl, and she kept attacking/wouldn't accept yield. I ran outside the The Flowing Bowl, and she didn't pursue, I went back in, and the Sirens were gone. I'm not sure if the glitch I encountered is related to the Signy Home-Wrecker glitch that prevents quest completion. But I was able to complete. I am not sure exactly when my stolen items vanished from the innovatory.

So after completing the quest all my stolen items are mysteriously gone. I return to Anvil to start house robbing. I go to Maelona and Gogan's house (by accident), and pick-pocket Maelona while she sleeps... viola! All of my stolen items are in her inventory (20+ items).

She woke up before I could get it all back, so I ended up killing her.

Any ideas about how she came to act like an Evidence Chest? (174.28.228.207 08:33, 29 May 2010 (UTC))

are you running mods perchance?--GUM!!! 14:10, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
Just because it is strange doesn't mean it is a mod GUM. It may have something to do with the quest and I am seeing if I can reproduce this.--Corevette789 14:49, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
oh right...i guess i should stop jumping to mods...it's just that it seems like the most likely thing...--GUM!!! 15:00, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
No Mods, this is the GOTY edition on PS3. (174.28.228.207 16:51, 29 May 2010 (UTC))
I checked the CS for Maelona, nothing out of the ordinary returned. No scripts nothing having to do with stolen anything.--Corevette789 16:54, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
Err, no. That's the usual behavior of the AI. Whenever an NPC sees you stealing they will aproach to you (assuming they have a high responsibility), and if they manage to get close enough, they will take away whatever you have stolen and place them in their own inventory. Since NPCs aren't scripted to place items back where they belong, they will keep them in their inventory until you either kill them or steal them back. --S'drassa T2M 01:32, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
