Holy Word Dump
Put things here that you'd like the HN to say/do. Please keep it within the realm of "reasonableness" and theme. I won't, for example, make HN patrols ignore skeletons and praise the gr8 darkigril. Keep in mind, however, that dialogue and events are a "luxury" item, so while i'd like to add it, i may not be skilled enough/too lazy to do so.

You talked about hymms and stuff. I was thinking of the different Lore Books you can by. Maybe have the Holy Nation Servants when on patrol saying lines from the Radiance and Guiding Light Series (like how modern armies use a cadence). The Farmers talk about the Holy Pheonix alot, so while they are working they could say lines from the Birth of the Pheonix when they are in a fight as a trigger (like them getting themselves motivated). Sentienal Gate Guards could say lines from A Holy Purpose and/or the Holy Crusade when they see someone coming as a trigger (essentially as intimidation).

Some ideas of what I mean:
Patrol:
A Loved one is a Skeleton if they have a sudden knowledge of world history, they question the word of Okran or lose their appetite.

The horned devil was created human, as brother of the Okranite. But the horned devil possessed a sinful mind, it rejected Okran's light in it's heart in favor of Narko's temptations.

Although women have deep links with Narko, they must not be treated as if they were Darkened. A man's role in life is to follow the will of Okran so that we may reach enlightenment. Doing so involves taming the darkness in a woman's heart.

The insect fiend is almost completely lost to the darkness, their obsidian, vacuous eyes devoid of any soul. The narrow minded worship of their bogus goddess, or their ‘queen’, only further fuels their selfish desires and their rejection of Okran’s light.

Born out of the darkest depths of the world came Narko, the Shadow. She sought to erase all that is good, if not for our saviour Okran.

In our darkest moments came the brightest light, the Phoenix. Okran had sent us his champion, one that would restore our faith and banish the Shadow.

Seek caution, children of Okran! An impure race is an unholy one; They must be rebirthed to serve the cause of Okran, lest they join the cause of darkness

The Agents of Darkness infest the world as unholy vermin, The darkness that caused the world's First Extinction. --- Actually all of Volume IV is very good (You could get 3 lines out of that):

The Agents of Darkness infest the world as unholy vermin, The darkness that caused the world's First Extinction.
The Agents of Darkness possess the idle man as Darkened, But it is the faithful man who will prevent the world's Second Extinction.
Through Okran's Divine Flame, all evil will be erased and cleansed. Slay the enemy with fire, purge the world of darkness."

Let us honour our holy brothers, never harm them, never feel envy or animosity towards them.

Let us abstain from intoxication, for the darkness preys on the undisciplined mind.

Farmers:
"When the darkness befell mankind, our Benefactor sent us a guide; He created the Phoenix from his own essence. The Phoenix is not merely a man with a common soul; The Phoenix is an extension of the Lord.

A Holy Purpse may work too for the farmers, like when they are farming as it is more of a do your duty and why book.


Gate Guards:
A man's purpose is to fulfil the will of Okran, and through Okran, he will achieve many of these things and more.

Times will come when the corrupted will resist, when the corrupted must be destroyed. When we execute a horned devil, it is not cruelty, it is mercy.

Thats a good idea, though it'll take a wee bit for me to make sure it all works and whatnot. However, I do have the priests reciting three of the books so far, so thats a start. I've got the agents filled with jury-rigged dialogue, though its hard to test properly since their squad is rareish, and i don't wanna bump it up fer fear of messing with other spawns. I'll start on dialogue packs for patrols, guards, and civies once i'm sure i can do it without mucking it all up.
