LORRIAN start You see Lorraine, a Scav from Adytum. --- You see a young woman with dark hair. do_dialogue start->do_dialogue Lorri04 I'm a Scav. I work with Sammael to collect stuff from the ruins, so that we can use it to build or trade. --- Sounds dangerous, with the gangs. --- How many Scavs are there? --- Can I ask you about something different? do_dialogue->Lorri04 Lorri01 Hi. Are you new here? --- Yeah. Can you fill me in a little? --- Yes, I am. I'm called --- . --- Whuuu? do_dialogue->Lorri01 Lorri02 I suppose. What do you need to know about? --- Who are you? --- Can you give me some information about the Boneyard? --- Tell me a bit about the other residents of Adytum. --- What do you do for a living? --- Never mind, thanks. Lorri03 I'm Lorraine. --- Can I ask you a few questions? --- Nice to meet you. Bye. Lorri05 Nice talking to you. Lorri06 It can be, if you're caught. The Rippers are especially hard on trespassers. That's why we work hard not to get caught! --- Can you tell me a bit about the gangs? --- How do you avoid getting caught? --- Can I ask you about some other stuff? --- Thanks. Bye. Lorri07 Oh, there's half a dozen of us. Sammael was the first one, and he's still the best. --- Can I ask you about some other stuff? --- Interesting. Thanks. Lorri08 You can always tell the Blades because they have those nasty vibro-knives. The Rippers, on the other hand, are low-tech but really mean. --- The Rippers even have a minefield around their fort! Makes you wonder what Julianna was thinking. --- What do you mean about Julianna? --- Very nasty. Can I ask some other things? --- Thanks for the warning. Lorri09 Oh, she wound up falling for some Ripper a while ago. Poor dear can't leave the town, of course, and Caleb would kill the young lad on sight. Very tragic. --- Uh . . . if you say so. --- Can I ask some other questions? --- Hmm. Thanks for filling me in. Bye. Lorri10 We only scavenge after dark. And we're very good at what we do. Sammael's got a little test that he likes to throw out at people, before he lets them become Scavs. --- What's the test? --- Still sounds dangerous. --- I see. Mind if we back up a bit? --- Interesting. Bye. Lorri11 Sammael has the person hide somewhere within Adytum during the day. If he can't find the student in an hour, then he lets the person join the next scavenger party. --- What a stupid system! --- Seems to work. You're still alive. --- Huh. Can I ask you about some other things? --- Interesting. Bye. Lorri12 Come now, isn't there the faintest trace of a romantic in you? Really, it's too bad. Unrequited love and all of that. Tragic. Lorri13 Hmpf. Shows what you know. Tell that to Sammael. If you can find him. Lorri14 Yes, although it can be rough. It's very dangerous, especially if you're caught. --- No doubt. Can I ask about something else? --- Thanks for the info. Lorri15 Wow, I think you're a little beyond my help. Lorri16 This used to be a big city, called Los Angeles. But the bombs hit really hard. Now, there's just the Angel's Boneyard. We Adytowners are just trying to survive in the wreckage. --- Can you tell me more about Los Angeles? --- I see. Thanks. Lorri17 Lots of people lived here, and they did important things like making computer games. From what I hear, the survivors hid in a big place called a Vault, and came out years later. Some of them founded Adytum, but the --- others formed the street gangs, the Blades and the Rippers. The Gun Runners aren't from here originally. --- Where is this Vault? --- Tell me about the gangs. --- Where are the Gun Runners from? --- Making computer games? Doesn't sound very important to me. --- Thanks for your help. Lorri18 Well, supposedly it was somewhere south of here, but I don't know really. I think everyone left because it was broken. --- Can I ask you some more questions? --- Hmm. Thanks. Lorri19 I'm not really sure. I think they came from somewhere up north of here. --- Tell me about the other gangs. --- Can I ask about some other things? --- Thanks for the information. Lorri20 Who do you want to know about, Zimmerman, Caleb, Miles, Taylor, or Smitty? --- Jon Zimmerman. --- Caleb. --- Miles. --- Taylor. --- Smitty. --- Nobody. Lorri21 Zimmerman watches over our town. He makes sure that everyone gets fed, and that everybody has a job to do. Lorri26 Can I ask about someone else? --- Can we talk about a different subject? --- Thanks. Lorri21->Lorri26 Lorri22 Caleb is the leader of the Regulators. It's his job to protect Adytum. He's very strict, but he means well. Lorri22->Lorri26 Lorri23 Ah, our resident chemist. Miles makes bullets, and he also built the water distiller that makes sure we get clean water from the well. He's working on an underground farm right now, but he's missing some parts. Lorri23->Lorri26 Lorri24 Taylor runs the shop. It's in the bunker near the gate. He trades with the Hub merchants for us. Lorri24->Lorri26 Lorri25 Hm. Smitty is a tinker of sorts. He's good at repair work. He casts bullets and fixes broken stuff around town. Lorri25->Lorri26 Lorri27 Are you kidding? Without computer games, you wouldn't be playing this, now would you?
