NPC CALL OUT

Unless noted here, she can be found practically anywhere within the pasture, usually with a big book or trying to help or pacify sheep. ETA POST BABY GAME Blossom can't be contacted! Stormy is in charge--if asked he'll say she's working on shit.

Stormy

He is not as visibly present as Blossom, and may brush you off! But if Blossom is around he's usually Some Where, even if it's not obvious.

Daisy

Daisy is only ever found in her ice cream parlor. Where does she go at night? Mystery. Note: Currently Daffodil has exclusive access to her butter supply, and Clover has exclusive access to her cream. If you want any of these items, you need to ask them! Bluebell and Rose also knows where to find natural salts.

Coco

A mysterious cat found in an underground maze. She currently guards a chamber full of rations, and occasionally distributes a small amount of corn, rice/grains, breads, special root vegetables, and chocolate/coffee. Currently only Daffodil can access the area. ETA As of Day 27 Coco can be found in a little building outside of the fence!! Only Daffodil currently can get inside still, but people can see and talk to her from the windows.

Red

Red's shop is open from sunrise to sunset! He's more than willing to chat and barter. Do not try to talk to him at night. ETA AS OF DAY 31, RED IS MIA. There is a sign on the door that says "Taking Time Off :) If Emergency, ask BS or use your Sheep Rites!"

The Snake

The Snake is a mysterious little entity with a grudge against Blossom! He will only willingly appear for Weeds, but others may have a chance to glimpse him. . .

To call out an NPC, just comment with the time and day and you'll receive a response!

Not too far, actually...

[she's also wishing Kohaku hadn't called her Tutorial Fairy, as that's striking a bit too close to home now that she's thinking about it.]

...And don't forget to save your game!

Ahh, I can? What a relief. Are we going to the save point right after this? I've always wanted to stand inside of one.

You definitely cannot save your game.

If the statue eye was closed, you could be revived after death, but as it is now... if you die in the game, you die in real life.

Ah... I'll have to take this really seriously if I want to make it to AND through all my mid-boss appointments, then...

Edited 2023-07-02 21:18 (UTC)

Don't worry. We'll be okay.

--Except probably Patches, but... he's crazy, so.

But even when the eye is closed, make sure nothing happens to your body. Or that you grow a new one.

Eh?

Okay, you can be revived if your body is in tact more or less, because your 'soul' is being pulled out of the underworld and crammed back into your body. So if you get swallowed whole, that's a problem.

But, there's a means to grow body parts and even an entire extra body to replace any limbs you lose or your entire body. It just takes a while and some blood sacrifice.

But again, that only matters when the eye is closed. It's open now. That means perma-death.

Modern technology is really amazing...! Perhaps one day, even monsters than need to prey on people to survive will be able to wander up to the supermarket to buy nominally ethically sourced dinner ingredients just like the rest of us...!

Oh yeah, we brought that up. It's rotting until you actually attach it to someone.

Not that you'd want to eat human flesh in the first place.

Even if you put it in the refrigerator...?! Wow, who knew people-free people would keep like cartons of raspberries.

How sad. My vampire-friendly start-up business just went down in flames.

Ehehe.

You're adapting really well! It's kind of a nice change.

I may be just an ordinary maid, but I like to think I'm tougher than I look! ...on the inside. Actually, I don't get that much exercise. I take the car to get groceries and practice sedentary hobbies in my off hours.

...
I'm probably gonna need better outside shoes before these geta up and snap on me, huh. No cars in a sheep field...

Edited 2023-07-02 22:00 (UTC)

That's true!

It's all right to wear sandals... but don't tell yourself 'geta life!'

No geta life... instead, geta knife!

...Not really for self defense, even that wouldn't do ME much good. I'm just a "high spec in unforgettable luncheons" type maid. What's Final Boss-sama's lunch hour policy, anyway? Is there a catering cart of darkness I should look for?

Edited 2023-07-02 22:14 (UTC)

...Tell them you use it for cutting vegetables. Very maid-like!

Um. Personally I go around and steal food. Or ask for handouts.

I mean, there are ways to grow food, or fish, or even hunt, but that's taking time away from mischief-making.

Every flock has a tree outside their barn with fruit growing from it. Some of the flocks have defenses around it. Some of them don't. Some are very vigilant and will get on your case about taking them without asking. Some of them aren't.

It's kind of touch and go. Bluebell has this wide moat around their barn, but the actual people are generally nice enough to just give you blueberries if you ask.

Of course, a handful of blueberries isn't going to get you very far.

So, Patches. It sounds like he's set a pretty big bad example?

You think it's bad enough I couldn't convince some flockfolk to let an experienced pro chef make them food in exchange for some modest maidenly-sized take-home portions?

Actually, that sounds like a really great thing to offer them! But, I don't think most people have full stocked kitchens, so you'll have to really improvise. Salt and pepper is sort of a luxury.

Also, a flock you've already bothered is going to be really wary of you. --See? You have to balance your trust at the same time.

I see, I see... So I'll be a mid-boss serving the final boss who pretends to be the player party's hour-three unlock quality of life feature, while secretly arranging misfortune, misinformation, and generally distracting side quest fodder that leads them away from the real point of their journey.

I'll have to take a little time to scope out who's the good pick to offer my services to while establishing myself as a cute, harmless maiden who couldn't really hurt a fly if she tried.... which is pretty easy, since.

_{[ with her hands held balled up in front of her, she does a single, pointed bounce in place. ]}

Ta☆dah!

...Well, it sounds bad when you say it like that...

[Is this like the old "Explain your coding program to your rubber duck," thing?]

Eh? Really? Are we aiming for more of a "mostly overt to select factions" thing instead, and just hoping they don't all form up too much in solidarity? So it's THAT kind of reputation system...

Well, and this is just my personal opinion, but since "create disharmony" through the flocks is one of our goals, universal opposition to us does sort of unite them against a common enemy. But a lot of other black-collars don't think about it.

In fact... where's your tattoo?

I have a tattoo now?! _{[ checking all visible parts of herself ]} No! My employability!

Edited 2023-07-02 22:58 (UTC)

Just find it. It's important.

_{[ it's nowhere in sight, but... her clothes DO cover 85-90% of her body accounting for sleeve physics, so that's not much of a surprise. ]}

Your Name-san, do you mean you need to know right now? Does the location maybe mean I have special super powers based on its particular placement..?!

...Okay, if it's in a private spot that isn't visible normally, you're fine.

No, not exactly. I was just going to warn you the bell-collars are going to freak out if they see it on you. And offer you some makeup if it was in an obvious spot. It'd probably be okay, but it would spike the tension a little.

So if it's on your thigh or back or something you can keep covered, all the better.
