I am in the process of creating an ogre camp. While the player could wipe out the ogres they can also talk to them.

For most of the ogres there will just be the one-line NPC conversation that floats above their head. I am looking for suggestions for ogre lines so there will be a large selection of random lines. The ogres don't really like the player and would rather eat him/her and the party. However, the ogre mage in charge thinks you can help them so doesn't allow his tribe to kill and eat the player. For my ogres, they aren't the smartest but they can talk in coherent sentenses. So "ME CRUSH YOU" won't work.

The ogre camp is filled mostly with the standard fighter ogres. There is also a large smith, a great axe wielding cook, several ogre mages and a couple of armored elite fighters.

For those interested in sharing there talent here are a couple of screen shots of the area to help inspire.

A little chianti, some nice fava beans, you'd be pretty tasty.

Hmm, you're probably too stringy to enjoy anyway without smoking for a day or two.

You better do a good job or I'll be the first to put you in the stewpot.

I wonder if you'd taste better with a nice dandelion salad and mulled cider?

I bet you'd make a great "hero" sandwich.

I won't grind your bones to make my bread -- I don't like bread.

Aren't you going to scream, "Ooh, it's an ogre, get your pitchforks and torches?"

[Sound of loud rumbling from hunger] "Mmm, you look good enough to eat!"

Oh how stereotypical. You see a large, green ogre and immediately assume my only interest is in eating you. Care to play some tarocci? Chess maybe?

Pease porridge hot, pease porridge cold, Pease porridge in the pot nine days old! Momma, can we put the hoo maan in the porridge? Please?

I don't care what you say about eating people being in my nature, I think he's soo cute!

Alright kids, don't get too attached, he'll probably wind up in the soup pot anyway.

Hey. Hero. Wanna see my spiked club? Up real close?


Okay, I got nothing. Best of luck to you. I love your requests, Shaughn, they always get my creative dialogue flowing. Mmm, juices, I'm getting hungry...

In the Danaan Unvanquished, I used a little script to randomize one-liners (the amb_chat scripts). With the script, you can add possible one-liners based upon a variety of factors, like the race, class, and gender of the PC, time of day, quest status, etc. You can do the same things with a regular conversation, this just makes it easier and lets you check for any thing you can script for.

With it, you can add race-specific insults and culinary suggestions, as well as poignant observations about the PC equipment, skill proficiencies, and charisma ability. It also means that you can add in a line for the odd half-orc female PC.

I also added lines based upon the NPC's current activity, and you could do something similar by setting a few variables on the orcs scattered about the camp. The sentries mutter about being bored, the mage's attendants about the mage's sleeping arrangements.

Cook:

1. "First I cut the leg off ..." ( 2h attack animation vs. corpse on table, *crack* *screen bump* )
later,
2. "Then I cut the arm off ..." ( ditto )
later,
3. "I save the head for last ..." ( turns to face PC, taunt w/ mock attack grunt, *laugh* )


Ogre sulks off to the side:
1. "Poor Graak, gots issues ... cook upset foodpot ... cook ... upset ... Graak." ( *belch* green gorestain )



or something like that (ogre interaction ..),

"How's the weather down there? *HAR HAR HAR*"
"Well, well, already wrapped in tin-foil and ready for the BBQ"
"Someone got a can opener?"
"Hey, short stuff, stop eying my crotch unless you plan to scratch it. Could take you all day."
"Would da liddle hewo like a kobald-pop."
"The buzzing gnats this time of year are ridiculous. Did someone leave the latrine pit uncovered?"
"You smell like lilacs girly"
"Well skewer you and the horse you rode in on...er, where's your horse"
"Watch your back little monkey, my wife's looking for another pet to, errr, train"

These are some great one-liners. If you have more feel free to throw them out there.

Started the cook the other day:
-"Filthy orcs sour the stew, while goblins taste like rot even when eaten alive!" (there are several dead goblins and orcs near the cook pot.)
-"Get too close while I'm chopping, you'll lose an arm and the soup will be tastier!"
-"Either throw more wood on the fire or get out of the way!"
-"I'll shave your liver, squeeze the jelly from your eyes!"
-"Watch yourself, or you'll be next in the pot!"

I definately like to throw some quirky or funny lines in there for the person who clicks on the different ogres or keeps clicking on an ogre. A little bit of pop culture is fun too. If you can pick out the movie quote you'll be the proud winner of an attaboy.

Blade Runner? Now off to do an internet search.

edit: rats.  Correct quote, wrong movie.  I'll leave the answer for the next guy to guess.

A quick correction the quote has a pronoun change so it would make sense.
