Memoirs of the Abyss | Follower & Quest Mod for TESV: Skyrim (Round Two)
Matt James for Khyakh, Lord of Revelry
The Lord of Revelry is finicky, but they certainly know how to have a good time. Luckily for those who disturb their sleep, they are not an unreasonable damned soul, and are always willing to make compromises beyond the usual boring 'awaken, get angry, slaughter anything live' cliché. Unluckily for those same people, their standards are high.
Khyakh should have a noble and sophisticated voice with an air of silliness to it - perhaps a slightly sing-song tone, or laughably carefree intonation to their words.
"Well, I'M not doing it. What'll they think if they see the face behind Raelor ALSO playing the plumber? No, no, boy, use your noggin! Have you ever even heard of Chekhov's Crossbow? Anyone with a deconstructive mind for media such as MY audience will immediately assume that Raelor is moonlighting as a down-on-his-dumps salaryman! Do you want that? Do you want to defile the greatest playwright of all time?! Do you want to piss all over his corpse?! NO PISSING IS PERMITTED! NOT UNTIL AFTER THE SHOW! Then we'll do it. Together. Blasted playwrights, all pretentious and decomposing on me..."
(Khyakh has found the player's suggestion to be utterly mind-boggling, and is growing increasing dramatic and loud as the line goes on. It appears to be anger, until at "Then we'll do it.", he/she suddenly goes back to a reasonable volume, and speaks as if what he/she's saying is completely normal.)
"Ooooooh. You've stumped me there, girl. A real skull-cracker. HMMMMMMMMMMM. Is it supposed to be a... hm. Some sort of... interpretative tribal dance? A greeting ritual? An invitation to exchange something scandalous? HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM."
(Khyakh is merrily playing along with a riddle. His or her every word is overdramatic and concerningly enthusiastic.)
"PfffFFT. What do THEY know. The only PEOPLE they see are Dusters. DUSTERS, by Azura! You'd have better luck discerning the depths of the human condition from a narcoleptic skeever stuck in a sewer vent."
(Khyakh is speaking in his/her usual loud tone, but is expressing clear disapproval over the act he/she is referring to.)
