Vorago/dialogue


 * Vorago: Welcome, stranger.
 * Player: I'm no stranger. Call me [player name].
 * Vorago: So be it, [player name]. I am the Immoveable. The Enduring. You may call me Vorago.
 * Player: What are you?
 * Vorago: I know only that I am of the earth, and the earth and I are one. More than those above see and know. I am here to ensure the continuation of that life.
 * Player: I've heard of living rock creatures, not far from here. Are you of the same kind?
 * Vorago: They are known to me. I am not as they are, however. The earth soul and I are as one, and they are my wards.
 * Player: You talk like you don't know what you are.
 * Vorago: It is hard to describe in words that you will understand. I am one with the earth soul. It permeates me, and grants me the power to command the earth.
 * Player: Command it? What do you mean by that?
 * Vorago: I feel the fury of the battles that have taken place on this good earth. I can command it to take shape and fight back, if necessary.
 * Player: You could fight?
 * Vorago: Should I deem it necessary. Should something be of significant enough worth to warrant it, yes.
 * Player: So where did you come from?
 * Vorago: That is an unknown. I feel reawakened of late, as if the world has changed.
 * Player: A lot has changed recently for us all. Do you remember anything before this reawakening?
 * Vorago: I remember taking shape at one point in my past, using the power of the earth to destroy. I was defeated by a powerful weapon.
 * Player: Interesting. Where would that weapon be now?
 * Vorago: I have it. I may be stopped but not destroyed, I will simply reform in new earth once more. Besides, I hold the only weapon ever to defeat me within my rock itself.
 * Player: Do you know much about gods?
 * Vorago: They are known to me, yes.
 * Player: Are you aligned to any?
 * Vorago: No. Their concerns are not mine. I seek only to defend the deep earth, and to repel those who would do it harm.
 * Player: You'd fight them?
 * Before the conclusion of Tuska Comes
 * Vorago: I seek worthy opponents against which to test myself, to increase my strength and skill. If a god were to approach with such a purpose, it would no doubt be a worthy battle.
 * Vorago: If they came as conquerors or destroyers, though, then I would need to be prepared.
 * After Tuska Comes
 * Vorago: I have done. The world devourer came to destroy this earth. This earth rose up to meet the challenger.
 * Vorago: The challenger lies motionless in the ocean. The earth remains.
 * Player: What are you doing here?
 * Vorago: I am waiting.
 * Player: Waiting for what?
 * Vorago: Those worthy of facing me in battle.
 * Player: Worthy of facing you?
 * Vorago: Yes. I must do battle with the strongest ones of this world, to defend against what is to come.
 * Player: Who are the unworthy, then?
 * Vorago (if not defeated before): To prepare for what is to come, I must fight at the peak of my strength. Those who cannot stand before my power are not worthy. To fight me would be a waste of their lives and of time.
 * Vorago (after defeating at least once): You have defeated me in the past. Consider yourself worthy.
 * Player: Can I face you?
 * Vorago: I offer a fair test to those who wish to challenge me - a test of resilience and resolve.
 * Player: I'm listening.
 * Vorago: If you or a group of your allies can withstand my raw power, I will face you in combat inside the borehole below.
 * Player: When you say 'raw power', how much are we talking about here?
 * Vorago: I won't hold back. Ensure anyone you bring with you has spoken to me about this as well before I take them with us into the borehole.
 * Challenging Vorago will initiate an attack . After 20 seconds he will unleash 50,000 damage across yourself and those who choose to accept and go with you into the borehole.
 * Only players who have also spoken to Vorago this far will be offered the option to join a fight if you initiate a challenge.
 * Vorago: So, do we fight?
 * Player: We fight.
 * Player: Not right now.
 * Vorago: A wise decision, Player.
 * Player: I don't want to talk to you
 * Vorago: It is wise of you to leave. Farewell.

Challenging Vorago before talking to him

 * Vorago: So impatient you surfacers are. Speak to me first, for to engage in battle with me ill-prepared could mean your death.

Hard mode without reqs

 * Vorago: I'm impressed you've come this close, however I'm not going to spend my time on the unworthy.


 * Attempting to challenge him
 * Vorago: I don't think you are quite up to the challenge. Begone.

Hard mode with reqs

 * Vorago: [player name], I'm glad you've come. Now that I've warmed up a bit, how about a real fight?
 * Player: Haven't you had enough?
 * Vorago: Never. I told you before that I am the Enduring. So, do we fight?
 * Player: We fight.
 * Player: Not right now.
 * Vorago: A wise decision. I'll be waiting.
