GREETING	GREETING	Neutral 50	I see you bear the Mark of {KAI-zar} Caesar! Cursor {Luh-CUL-us} Lucullus awaits you at the docks!	1
	GREETING	Neutral 50	{KAI-zar} Caesar does not like to be kept waiting. I would find Cursor {Luh-CUL-us} Lucullus quickly and travel to The Fort, if I were you.	2
		Neutral 50	He should still be waiting at the docks.	3
	GREETING	Neutral 50	{LATIN} {AH-way} Ave. Have you come to sell or trade for captures?	4
	GREETING	Neutral 50	{AH-way} Ave. How goes it?	5
VFreeformCottonwoodCoveNVCCCanyonRunnerTopic000	Could we go lower than 300 caps?	Neutral 50	{scoffing} This isn't the total we agreed upon. Don't waste my time, wastelander.	6
VFreeformCottonwoodCoveNVCCCanyonRunnerTopic002	By "captures," do you mean "slaves"?	Neutral 50	{good-humored} No, no, no - they haven't yet earned the right to be called "slaves"! Those three in the pen are captures, nothing more.	7
		Neutral 50	{as though talking about animal training} I'm a Slavemaster, so I know what I'm talking about. Back at the Fort, I'd have those three half-broken and well on their way.	8
		Neutral 50	But this is just a holding area, so all I do is assess their fitness and decide whether to send them on.	9
VFreeformCottonwoodCoveNVCCCanyonRunnerTopic007 <SPEECH - player tells CR the daughter has an incurable STD>	<Lie> Any fool can see that girl has all the symptoms of Pustular Hypomyalgia!	Neutral 50	[SUCCEEDED] {alarmed, trouble pronouncing it} Pustulah what? Is that contagious? That doesn't sound good at all!	10
	But the girl is sick. With classic symptoms of, uh... Vagina Dentata?	Anger 50	[FAILED]I think my Latin is better than yours. I inspect all the captives myself, and there was no "dentata."	11
VFreeformCottonwoodCoveNVCCCanyonRunnerTopic008	I can pay you 300 caps.	Neutral 50	A fair price. Always best to have caps on hand in case traders stop by.	12
		Neutral 50	Here's the key to their collars. You want to take those off before you've gone far, trust me.	13
VFreeformCottonwoodCoveNVCCCanyonRunnerTopic009	I'll give you 150 caps for the lot.	Neutral 50	Seems I'm fortunate to get that much for them, given the circumstances! {DUPLICATE?}	14
		Neutral 50	Here, this is the key to their collars. You'll want to take those off before you go far, trust me. {DUPLICATE?}	15
VFreeformCottonwoodCoveNVCCCanyonRunnerTopic011	It doesn't bother you, enslaving people?	Neutral 50	{the player's ignorance is almost comical} Why would it bother me to enslave these wretches? They have no purpose, no creed, no honor.	16
		Neutral 50	They live in pitiful squalor, undisciplined, intemperate. To enslave them is to save them - to give them purpose, and virtue.	17
		Neutral 50	{Ho-NES-tas, In-DUS-tree-ah, Proo-DEN-tee-ah} Honestas, Industria, Prudentia - even the virtues of slaves are beyond the Dissolute on this side of the river.	18
VFreeformCottonwoodCoveNVCCCanyonRunnerTopic012	I'll come back if I want to buy them.	Neutral 50	Please do. An outbreak of {trouble pronouncing it} pustulah-whatever is the last thing we need.	19
VFreeformCottonwoodCoveNVCCCanyonRunnerTopic016	How much would it cost to buy the three "captures"?	Neutral 50	It's a weak bunch, to be honest. I'd rather have extra currency to buy supplies or better captures off traders.	20
		Neutral 50	There's a boy, too old to be trained as a Legionary. Normally they have to die, but he's too frail to make trouble.	21
		Neutral 50	The old woman's dried up, but she could keep house or do gardening - if she can learn to keep her mouth shut.	22
		Neutral 50	The girl's the only one of real value, young enough to breed, not hideous to look at. What's your offer for the lot?	23
VFreeformCottonwoodCoveNVCCCanyonRunnerTopic017	Let me think about it.	Neutral 50	Let me know if you change your mind.	24
VFreeformCottonwoodCoveNVCCCanyonRunnerTopic018	I'll give you 150 caps for the lot.	Neutral 50	Seems I'm fortunate to get that much for them, given the circumstances! {DUPLICATE?}	25
		Neutral 50	Here, this is the key to their collars. You'll want to take those off before you go far, trust me. {DUPLICATE?}	26
	I'll give you 150 caps for the lot.	Neutral 50	{scoffing} This isn't the total we agreed upon. Don't waste my time, wastelander.	27
VFreeformCottonwoodCoveNVCCCanyonRunnerTopic019	How did the Legion set up a camp on this side of the river?	Neutral 50	It was easy. The Colorado is narrow here, and when the Profligates abandoned Searchlight, there was no one to guard the crossing.	28
		Neutral 50	It's just a small outpost, but we keep busy. Raiding parties go out, new captures come in.	29
VFreeformCottonwoodCoveNVCCCanyonRunnerTopic020	How did you join Caesar's Legion?	Neutral 50	{proudly} I have Blackfoot in me, the first tribe that {KAI-zar} Caesar ever led in battle - the tribe that formed the Legion.	30
		Neutral 50	If not for him, we'd still be living in tents or shacks, scavenging for food like animals. If we were alive at all.	31
VFreeformCottonwoodCoveNVCCCanyonRunnerTopic021	Goodbye.	Neutral 50	{"Wall-ae"} Vale.	32
VFreeformCottonwoodCoveNVCCCanyonRunnerTopic022	Who is Cursor Lucullus?	Neutral 50	The best Cursor in the Legion. You'll reach Fortification Hill without incident, that's for sure.	33
		Neutral 50	{envious} Wait until you see the encampment, how massive it is. And a personal audience with mighty Caesar - glorious! {KAI-zar}	34
VFreeformCottonwoodCoveNVCCCanyonRunnerTopic023	Do you have any "captures" with the last name, "Weathers?"	Neutral 50	{patiently explaining} Captures lose any claim to the names they called themselves when they let themselves be taken.	35
		Neutral 50	If they're fortunate enough to become slaves, a new name will be given to them - one they can be proud of.	36
