Risen, when mentioned in game, are capitalized (at least in most cases?). Just saying... Mediggo 11:46, 3 May 2013 (UTC)

Aggro and Death Lines?[edit]

All Risen - at least most - have lines of dialogue upon aggro and death. I think they would be a good thing to include on the wiki, so I'm going to start compiling a list. I won't update the wiki until I think I've got them all, though, to avoid clogging up the edit history. Does anyone have any comments on this course of action before I start? ~~TiffanySmith.8216 23:19, 26 July 2019 (UTC)

Most of these should already be on the individual NPCs' articles. There is no unified set of lines for the risen; thralls, brutes, abominations, etc. all use different lines, though "copy NPCs" (e.g., Risen Humans) would use the same lines as those they are copied from.

Alright, that makes sense. I'm wondering why this page doesn't have links to all the types, though? I mean, there's the list of all the names that are Risen, but that includes NPCs like Blightghast. It might make things slightly easier for locating the types - like thrall, abomination, etc - if we took those off of that list and made a separate list (or a 'see also' section). ~~TiffanySmith.8216 13:36, 27 July 2019 (UTC)
I'm not sure what you're trying to suggest. Are you saying to make a separate list for all the generic NPCs that have separated spoken lines for aggro, etc.? I don't think that'd be of much use, since there's not really an article to separate them - sure we have easy ones like thrall, brute, and abomination which are highly generic names, but all of the "Choral risen" (e.g., Plaguebringer, Hunter, Subjugator, etc.) share lines iirc and there's not really a specific article for the group (nor, imo, should there be). And separating generic NPCs from uniquely named won't do much help, especially in this kind of grouping, since there's just so damn many of both. Konig (talk) 17:03, 27 July 2019 (UTC)
