Eirik's Soundset

[EiriktheScald]

At the risk of seemingly "crying wolf," before; Eirik is back in production. For your review, I present his soundset:

 

  SAY MORALE @102 /* @102 = ~This will be a poor death, if we meet it here, and I'd choose rather to fall to weapons on a level field!~ */
 SAY HAPPY @103 /* @103 = ~I stand by you, friend, my heart and head will not flinch.~ */
 SAY UNHAPPY_ANNOYED @104 /* @104 = ~I hope, my friend, that henceforth your cause will take a better turn.~ */
 SAY UNHAPPY_SERIOUS @105 /* @105 = ~Your actions weigh heavy on my heart and I am not so eager to fight as before.~ */
 SAY UNHAPPY_BREAKING @106 /* @106 = ~You stinking offspring of a mare!~ */
 SAY LEADER @107 /* @107 = ~Enjoy with me that drink which is best, and we shall drink first and become glad and show our mettle, and let us strive for one thing only: that our valour will be remembered!~ */
 SAY TIRED @108 /* @108 = ~It is not easy to bend fate, nor to stand against nature. I must rest now.~ */
 SAY BORED @109 /* @109 = ~Time is pressing! Let us hasten with an eager desire.~ */
 SAY BATTLE_CRY1 @110 /* @110 = ~Awake, iron!~ */
 SAY BATTLE_CRY2 @111 /* @111 = ~Tempus and victory!~ */
 SAY BATTLE_CRY3 @112 /* @112 = ~Ah! I smell a battle!~ */
 SAY BATTLE_CRY4 @113 /* @113 = ~A deed to win the shining citadel!~ */
 SAY DAMAGE @114
 SAY DYING @115
 SAY HURT @116 /* @116 = ~The end will not be long, I need aid!~ */
 SAY SELECT_COMMON1 @122 /* @122 = ~Command me!~ */
 SAY SELECT_COMMON2 @123 /* @123 = ~What is to be done?~ */
 SAY SELECT_COMMON3 @124 /* @124 = ~Yes?~ */
 SAY SELECT_COMMON4 @125 /* @125 = ~Do you ask for help?~ */
 SAY SELECT_COMMON5 @126 /* @126 = ~Speak now and be swift!~ */
 SAY SELECT_COMMON6 @127 /* @127 = ~What is it now?~ */
 SAY SELECT_ACTION1 @128 /* @128 = ~So be it!~ */
 SAY SELECT_ACTION2 @129 /* @129 = ~Tis but little trouble for me to do this errand.~ */
 SAY SELECT_ACTION3 @130 /* @130 = ~It shall be so.~ */
 SAY SELECT_ACTION4 @131 /* @131 = ~Am I an errand-runner?~ */
 SAY SELECT_ACTION5 @132 /* @132 = ~I will do as you ask.~ */
 SAY SELECT_ACTION6 @133 /* @133 = ~This is thrall-work!~ */
 SAY SELECT_ACTION7 @134 /* @134 = ~It shall be, as you command.~ */
 SAY SELECT_RARE1 @135 /* @135 = ~My daring has never been questioned.~ */
 SAY SELECT_RARE2 @136 /* @136 = ~No duty do I, as I deem, owe you.~ */
 SAY CRITICAL_HIT @137 /* @137 = ~Feel'st my deadly rain!~ */
 SAY CRITICAL_MISS @138 /* @138 = ~Bah! All my wounds be not avenged.~ */
 SAY TARGET_IMMUNE @139 /* @139 = ~What devilry!?~ */

 

Damage and dying will be audibles. Any comments, so far? Admittedly, some are quite lengthy/wordy, but he is a bard, is he not?

[BigRob]

Looks good as it is, all the wordy ones are in places that suit being that long. The only line I'd have a think about changing is the target immune one. All the lines for that that I know of implicitly state that the weapon is having no effect. Leaving that out might mean that some players just don't clue into the fact that he's not doing anything, but a small edit for that should do the trick.

[EiriktheScald]

Something like,

 

SAY TARGET_IMMUNE @139 /* @139 = ~What devilry!? My weapon fails me!~ */

[berelinde]

That would do it.

[EiriktheScald]

Would it be to confusing to use a kenning for weapon?

 

corpse-scathe

fjord-flame

battle-serpent

blood-ice

wound-snake

flame of battle

fire-brand

*Definitely,* in a soundset. But feel free to do so in regular dialogue.
