What can I do for ya?

“

I got the hurdles set up, if you're feeling like gettin' some exercise in.

If the player is a Warden

“

[Backfat sniffs you.]

Uh... aren't you a priest of Au-Shin?

I'm sorry, what?

You know, Au-Shin, God of Animals? You're a priest of Au-Shin like me. Admit it! I can smell my own.

I'm not a priest of Au-Shin.

Yes you are! Were you struck by lightning? Gained incredible electricity powers so you can apprehend the enemies of Au-Shin? Flight on a magical cloud? Acid pouring out of your skin on command? None of this sound familiar?

Well... that sounds like the Wardens. I'm a Warden... but not a priest.

A Warden? There's still Wardens?! That's amazing! Seriously? I thought the last Wardens died out a decade ago. You know, a bunch of gods have been hunting you guys. I'm surprised you've survived!

But anyway, that still makes you a priest of Au-Shin.

It does?

Who do you think gave you those powers? Created magic spells of incredible power that are somehow castable without hands? That's Au-Shin.

The Wardens were created a long time ago as a way for Au-Shin to gain influence in lands that were controlled by Dreva. In my homeland, there's no need for Wardens, we're just treated as an adjunct of the druids. But Dreva's druids are different.

Anyway, it's just a name! We're the same at heart! And I happen to be a high-ranking priest. If you need some pointers, maybe I can help.

Thanks!


Small Talk

Variation 1

“

Noita found me when I was struggling in the Murdo Isles. It's a lawless place where even a pig can own property -- if they're strong enough to hold on to it!

I was making money for a few months, but eventually goblins overran my mushroom farm. I was captured and Noita saved my bacon! That's when I got into physical fitness. I won't let that happen again!

Variation 2

“

I love meat! I'm an omnivore, so that's completely normal. It's not like I eat pig meat! No... heh, no, my favorite meat by far is deer meat!

Variation 3

“

No, no. I'm not immortal in any sense. But I *am* ascended by divine intervention! Probably.

I mean, I gained intelligence but not as a mage's familiar. I was struck by lightning and it somehow made me smart! There's no way that's a coincidence. Some god somewhere is looking out for me!

NPC Chatter

The chatter between Marrowchomp, Noita the Green, and Backfat seems to variate between several phrases. They don't always line up the same each time, but the following is a general idea of what's going on.

Marrowchomp's Cooking

Marrowchomp: Grrr! Howl. Noita the Green: That sounds delicious. I'm looking forward to it! OR I'm not familiar with that dish, but I place myself in your capable paws. Backfat: Well, Marrow, I'm willing to try anything you cook. OR Haha! Nice one, Marrowchomp

Marrowchomp's Joke

Marrowchomp: Grrr! Howl. Noita the Green: Now wait a minute... oh, that's quite a filthy joke! It took me a moment. OR Yes, yes, you've told that one before old chap. Backfat: Hah! Wait... was that a joke or is that really true? Hmm...

Marrowchomp and the Incident?

Marrowchomp: Grrr! Grrrrrrowl. Noita the Green: No, I don't think she'd come... not after the incident. Backfat: Good one, Marrowchomp!

Marrowchomp's Great Idea

Marrowchomp: Grrr! Howl. Noita the Green: That is so true! I think you may be on to something. Backfat: Seriously?! Hah! That's great!

Changing Times

Marrowchomp: Rrrrrrr..... Grrrrrrrrrrrr. Noita the Green: Well, I don't know about way back then, but it's definitely true THESE days. Backfat: Seriously?! Hah! That's great!
