Template talk:NPC

flying monkeys!
o.o whats wrong with flying monkeys? anyway, I notice that the recent changes to the templates involving cats (while a vast improvement! *offers a pillow and blankie*) removed the NPC Location categories. ^^ while we don't want the absurd amounts we had before, the lowest/most exact location one would be nice to still have there so you can easily look up what other NPCs are near by. --Sleepy Kitty 04:45, 29 August 2007 (EDT)

Type, Faction
We could use some proper enumeration of the values to choose between here. Some of them also need good names.


 * Faction
 * AFS, Bane, Corman, Forean, Brann, Wildlife (possible name for named non-bane animals), ...


 * Type
 * Mission giver (what about contact?), mission taker (completing missions only), mission target (something you kill or talk to, but doesn't start or end a mission), trainer, vendor, fluff (those that just say their random line and fight), ...

I've tried to get the ball rolling above. - Dashiva 10:24, 13 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Just curious, the Forean are not part of AFS technically? Just saying. - Jesterizer 20:07, 26 November 2007 (PST)


 * The Foreans as a people have joined the AFS, but the individuals typically don't consider themselves part. As example, the Forean you assist in Pravus Research Facility ends up deciding to join the AFS. The same with the Brann, where some say (e.g.) "You AFS" in quest dialogue. I can't say if this is a useful distinction, but since it exists I thought to document it. - Dashiva 12:20, 27 November 2007 (UTC)


 * I see. Thanks for the explanation. And for the type, we will be using your version as above? Or did it changed since you first posted that list? - Jesterizer 19:53, 27 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Those were just some ideas I threw out, not really something I'd submit for use. So far I've only been using "mission giver" (idem) and "mission target" (people you talk to, enemies you kill). I'd welcome some debate on the rest. - Dashiva 20:12, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
