DYNAHEIR'S ROMANCE
Domi
Domi
Dynaheir’s Romance was written for a good (and preferably a lawful
good) male PC. Three different ‘typecasts’ of PC are more or less
maintained through the mod: a courteous paladin, a man who tries to do the
right thing, and a guy who tries to be funny and distract Dynaheir from her too
serious ways. There are also a number of class-specific options for a bard,
including bad verses he can compose for Dynaheir in a number of talks.
Racial-specific options are present, if rarely for a Half-Orc and an Elf. One
of the most important themes of this romance is Bhaal’s Heritage. Once PC
had learned about it from Gorion’s letter, the romance enters a difficult
sequence of dealing with love and betrayal. A word of advice: here it is most
important to be smart and noble. A small surprise awaits a patient player
who’d keep the relationship running till the very-very-very end of the
game. This romance includes core love-talks, both sequential and reactive to
events in the game and flirt-packs, both PC and NPC-initiated.
Dynaheir’s Romance uses the Saint-Sense’s ‘Swan’ as the
romance musical theme.

- First Lines and Talk Numbering Scheme:
- LT1: I would like to know very much if thou hast been
sufficiently educated in the history of the Realms, <CHARNAME>.
- For a scholar of history, the bitterest thing is to see the
errors of old repeated. Look now at the commoners, listen to their words,
calling for war with Amn.
- LT3: Yestereve we talked of war and power, and since then I
wonder, <CHARNAME> if thou art trying to stop this coming war?
- LT4: *The common room is busy to <DAYNIGHT> and merry. But
the jolly atmosphere never touches a small figure curled in an armchair with a
notebook on her lap… etc.*
- LT5: *Dynaheir greets you with a strange half-smile on her
face*.
- LT6: I envy thee for growing up in Candlekeep. 'Tis the place
where the spirit of Alaundo the Seer wanders the grounds.
- LT7: I need to talk to thee in private, <CHARNAME>.
- LT8: ...and so it happened that Thay attempted its first assault
in the year 934 through the Gorge of Gauros, but was repelled.
- LT9: Thine adventures, <CHARNAME>, they art reminiscent of
mine people's custom. Of dajemma.
- LT10: I remember how I set out on this journey,
<CHARNAME>, so eager to complete the studies I started when I was on my
dajemma… etc.
- LT11: *Dynaheir sits quietly for a long time, her brow furrowed.
The light wind blows smoke her way and drops a spark on her skin. She jumps up
with a shout.*
- LT12: Dost thou remember the Year of Shadows, also known as the
Time of Troubles?
- LT13: <CHARNAME> ... *quietly* Thou need a healer. Thou
art not hale. LT14: In my travels I observed that 'tis easy to divulge the most
intimate details of one's life to a stranger.
- LT15: Look a' the ribbons… etc
- LT16: My lord <CHARNAME>-
- LT17: An old tale just came to my mind.
- LT18: Thinkest thou that this starlit land is the most fair thou
hast seen?
- LT19: By the Three, thou hast finally exhausted thyself! Must I
shake thee awake or wilt thou rise on thine own?
- LT20: There is blood on thy sleeve.
- LT21: *distractedly* Thou art stately to<DAYNIGHT>, my
hero.
- LT22: *Wrapped in blankets, Dynaheir props herself against your
chest cozily. She has been studying an old tome she must have picked either in
town or in some horde.*
- LT23: *brushes your cheek* I am afraid that I have failed.
*sighs* There was nothing mysterious about it; no grand powers came to me, no
new insights. It was not worth it.
- LT24: Yet again thou hast prevailed over thy foes.
- LT25: *Dynaheir wakes you, and the haze of sleep weighs your
brow. The Hathran looks fresh and rested, however, and her eyes sparkle
brightly. She places a cool finger on your lips forbidding you to speak.*
- LT26: Thou look... determined.
- LT27: The secrecy in which you traveled made me suspect that you
had sensed my pursuit, Child of Bhaal. Is that so?
- LT28: Thou hast been silent of late. I know that Gorion's letter
placed a great weight upon thy shoulders, but 'tis no reason to avoid thy
friends.
- LT29: Thy face has a noble cast to it, <CHARNAME>. 'Tis
not Bhaal's.
- LT30: *Only a few short weeks ago, you knew nothing of your
father, and had naught but vague dreams of your mother… etc.*
