Ambient dialogue[edit]
- Soldier: If you cannot kill an animal, blind it or break a leg. Make it regret fighting you.
- Soldier: When the heat of battle takes me, nothing can stop me until my muzzle is covered with gore.
- Soldier: On my last skirmish, I picked up an ancient dwarven hammer. It's not battle-worthy, but it sure looks mighty!
- Soldier: I'm going to make my grandsire as proud as Pyre Fierceshot was of Kalla Scorchrazor.
- Citizen: Nothing like hunting deer in the morning sun.
- Citizen: Never fight something with more arms and legs than you.
- Citizen (1): Kalla Scorchrazor was a grandcub of Pyre Fierceshot.
- Citizen (2): Yeah, he said we had no gods, and she forced the shamans from power.
- Citizen (1): I'd give anything to fight like she did.
- Soldier: You can find some good weapon parts at Junker's Scrapyard, if you've got a patience to dig through the piles.
- Blood Legion Soldier (1): Hey, we going out drinking later. You in?
- Blood Legion Soldier (2): Every time I drink with you guys, I do something I regret.
- Blood Legion Soldier (1): That's why we keep inviting you.
- Old Soldier: Never get emotional in a fight. It keeps you smarter than any wild animal you face.
- Citizen: Looks like rain. Smells like it too.
- Citizen: It's okay.
- Citizen: When I'm get some time off, I gonna come back here.
- Adamant Guard: This weapon is getting too worn. I'll need to replace it.
- Soldier: Scald it.
- Soldier (1): Our centurion doesn't know what he's doing.
- Soldier (2): And you do? Don't flatter yourself.
- Soldier (3): He's in charge for a reason. Pipe down and you might learn something from him.
- Citizen: Hoelbrak's a fun place to visit. Last time, I got so drunk, I let a norn shave his name into my fur.
- Citizen: Sylvari are mystery to me. They seem so innocent, but in battle, they handle themselves quite completely.
- Citizen: Don't feed the wild animals. Unless it's a killing end of a weapon.
- Soldier: Keep your claws sharp. They're the weapons you'll always have.
- Old Soldier: That was the campaign where I got my favorite scar. Ah, I was a loose cannon in those days.
- Soldier: Do you think that was overkill? Nah.
- Adamant Guard: It's not worth the stress.
- Soldier: A fine place for a vacation from my idiot underlings.
- Blood Legion Soldier (1): Have you seen my brother's sword? It's best around.
- Blood Legion Soldier (2): Rytlock's sword is better.
- Blood Legion Soldier (1): That's nothing. I heard Rytlock's sword was forged by humans.
- Old Soldier: It's been a long time since I had my muzzle down in blood and mud. I miss those days.
- Soldier (1): What are you doing after your shift?
- Soldier (2): Watching the fights. You get to see some great tactical maneuvers in the arena.
- Adamant Guard: The Black Citadel is both a strategic victory and a technological marvel. The Iron Legion should be proud.
- Cub: I want to see the Claw of the Khan-Ur up close. I heard it's wickedly sharp!
- Cub: Smell that air. Look at the sky. This is the best land in all of Tyria.
- Soldier: Hey, I didn't see you come in.
- Ash Legion Captain: That's the idea.
- Soldier: As if you could understand my duties. Don't strain yourself.
- Soldier: My warband has seen more action than anyone else from my fahrar. Them more we fight, the less we want to come home.
- Citizen: Look at that. You can find beauty here, and dozens of ways to die. I like that challenge.
- Citizen: Magic can be a powerful tool, but no way I'd trust my life to it.
- Blood Legion Soldier: Oh, sick. I hate skale vomit. Stays in your fur forever.
- Citizen: I hate wild animals. Except the ones I can pick up and eat.
- Blood Legion Centurion: The most important lesson I learned is that you never want to be the weakest link.
- Blood Legion Soldier (1): You see that head shot? Right through the eye!
- Blood Legion Soldier (2): That's nothing. I was gouging eyes back when I was a cub.
- Blood Legion Soldier (1): That's why no one in your warband could shoot straight.
- Blood Legion Soldier (2): Look me in the eye and say that.
- Blood Legion Soldier: There we were, huddled in the dark, when suddenly we hear drums echoing through the caverns. I can't talk about it yet.
- Old Soldier: There are bold charr, and old charr, but very few bold, old charr.
- Citizen: I say don't waste your time on her. Once a scrapper, always a scrapper.
- Adamant Guard: The Vigil is an honorable organization. I'm seriously considering joining up.
- Citizen (1): Take my advice. I had more cubs than you. In time, you'll learn.
- Citizen (2): Experience is a great teacher, but in the meantime I'll stick with common sense.
- Citizen (1): Sylvari don't look like much. Bunch of skinny, mewling kittens.
- Citizen (2): Our cubs have to fight somebody. Let's see if those twigs can fight back.
- Soldier: It's never a good day until I kill someone.
- Citizen: The asura who operates that gate has nerves of steel. He stands out there every day, even knowing what's under his feet.
- Soldier: I met one of Ash Legion tribunes. She looked like she could gut me just by looking at me.
- Citizen: The Blood Legion is always quick to join in when Ash and Iron go at it.
- Soldier: Stay way from the wild animals and they'll stay away from you.
- Iron Legion Soldier (1): After practice, let's go straight to the mess tent.
- Iron Legion Soldier (2): I'm always starving after a good workout.
- Iron Legion Soldier (1): Training and eating - two of life's sweetest activities.
- Iron Legion Soldier (1): You see that explosion on the north wall?
- Iron Legion Soldier (2): Cannoneers who can't handle the big guns don’t deserve 'em.
- Soldier: Hunt them down and slit their throats.
- Soldier: I've yet to meet a bottle of whiskey I didn't like. Or drink dry.
- Soldier: You been to Steeleye Span? Mm. Makes my chest swell with pride to see it stand in defiance against the dragon’s servants.
- Citizen: Where's my knapsack? Oh, yeah. That devourer...
- Cub: You mark my words, Rytlock Brimstone will be Imperator of Blood Legion one day.
- Citizen: Keep you eyes open. It might be the difference between predator and pray.
- Soldier: It cost him, but he wouldn't leave his warband behind. Now, he has to be fed and changed like a cub, the poor wretch.
- Soldier: My only fear is that I'll end up a gladium. I'm not so good being by myself.
- Cub: Never turn your back on a devourer, or you'll get a tail full of poison.
- Soldier: Excellent!
- Citizen: This proposed truce with humans isn't going to be an easy bone for either side to swallow.
- Soldier: A bunch of cubs could have done that better.
- Citizen: Hrm, a little raw rabbit would hit the spot. It's a little bitter, but delicious.
- Soldier: My underlings are only good for absorbing the enemy's ammunition.
- Soldier: Don't pick a fight with a wild animal unless you know what you're facing.
- Soldier: This cease-fire with humans is an insult to the heroes who fought to reclaim what was rightfully ours.
- Soldier: My warband is still out in the field. I was dispatched here with a missive for the imperator.
- Soldier: Work with me, and we'll crush them even faster.
- Blood Legion Centurion: Work with me, and we'll crush them even faster.
- Soldier: Only the weak and dumb allow themselves to be killed by a lowly animal.
- Citizen: This place is beautiful. Be even better without other races tromping in here.
- Soldier: The only way I ever remember anything important is if it comes with a good scar.
- Soldier: (laugh)
- Old Soldier: It's nothing, especially in the long run.
- Soldier: Hey. Stay strong. Work hard. Be mighty.
- Ash Legion Soldier (1): You waiting for the rest of your warband?
- Blood Legion Soldier (1): We came down early. What about you?
- Ash Legion Soldier (1): I was hoping to get some sparring in before my warband showed up.
- Blood Legion Soldier (2): I get some of my best practice when I come down early.
- Blood Legion Soldier (1): It's good to spar with someone outside of your warband.
- Ash Legion Soldier (1): A stranger will have moves you're not expecting.
- Ash Legion Soldier (1): You come up for some close-combat practice?
- Blood Legion Soldier (2): Any day. Let's go.
- Blood Legion Soldier (1): Oo-rah!
- After the sparring
- Blood Legion Soldier: Keep your elbows down! Don't drop your weapon too low behind your back!
- Iron Legion Soldier: Is she in your warband? She's got skills.
- Blood Legion Soldier: We're proud of her.
- Iron Legion Soldier: I wouldn't mind getting out there. You up for a round or two?
- Blood Legion Soldier: I need to shake some of the dust off myself anyway. I'm ready when you are.
- Citizen: Ash Legion? I can't say I approve of their methods, but they're handy to have around sometimes.
- Citizen: After that last defeat, he lost two ranks. They're moving him out of Praetor's Canton and back to barracks.
- Citizen: Never turn your back on an enemy, a stranger, or an animal.
- Citizen: Forget it! It's too big for you to understand.
- Citizen: There's whiskey and then there's charr whiskey. I once saw a human try to drink charr whiskey, Ha! He never got his voice back!
- Old Soldier: I may have lost a step or two, I'll admit. But I still have enough in me to take down a nest of grawl.
- Old Soldier: My old fahrar, nearly all gone now. I'll drink to them tonight.
- Old Soldier: I'll never forget the first time one of those war wagons rolled into camp. Right then and there, I knew I wanted to be Iron.
- Blood Legion Soldier: Some of my old fahrar are buried near here. Lousy fighters, all of them.
- Citizen: Those weak-willed fools in the Flame Legion are blinded by the lie of faith! We'll teach them the error of their ways.
- Citizen: Sometimes, for fun, I head over to the Ghostblast Battery and watch 'em pound ghosts into quivering pools of ectoplasm.
- NPC near 20th Blood Cohort point of interest:[verification requested] Did you hear the Heart warband is in town? They're passing through, on their way to Diessa Plateau.
- NPC near 20th Blood Cohort point of interest:[verification requested] My warband's about to ship out. We're being sent to the Blazeridge Steppes to help some Sentinels get back to the Brand.
- Spit Warband's quiz patrol
- (Three cubs appear on the ramp leading out of the 12th Iron Maniple)
- Ari Plaguespit: You ready for your test, Bev?
- Bevin Acidspit: I think so, Legionnaire.
- Ari Plaguespit: Okay. I'm going to quiz you. So, what are the roles of the four legions?
- Bevin Acidspit: Iron is for the might. Blood is for the fight. Ash is for the spying, and Flame is for the dying!
- Ari Plaguespit: Right! C'mon, let's check out the Blood Cohort. Race ya!
- (The cubs run to 20th Blood Cohort)
- Bevin Acidspit: That one was too easy, Ari! I mean "Legionnaire." Ask me another.
- Ari Plaguespit: Okay. So who is my favorite tribune and what legion is he?
- Bevin Acidspit: I know! Rytlock Brimstone! He's Blood Legion, and he's from Destiny's Edge, and he's got the mightiest sword!
- Ari Plaguespit: (laugh) Good answer. Let's go see what's happening at the Ash checkpoint.
- (The cubs run to Ash Checkpoint 13)
- Cara Poisonspit: Ask me about Malice Swordshadow, Ari!
- Ari Plaguespit: If you want me to. Who's Malice Swordshadow, and why should I care?
- Cara Poisonspit: Malice Swordshadow is the new imperator of the Ash Legion. That makes her the boss of you, and that's why you should care. Oh, and she's sneaky and smart.
- Ari Plaguespit: That'll do. Good job. I'll race you to the platform!
- (The cubs run to the platform leading to Hero's Forum)
- Ari Plaguespit: Bev, who are the most respected Iron Legion tribunes?
- Bevin Acidspit: Fume Brighteye, Bhuer Goreblade, and Mia Kindleshot! They're mighty!
- Ari Plaguespit: Good. You're going to make your warband proud by killing your test.
- (The cubs run back to the ramp leading up to 12th Iron Maniple)
- Bevin Acidspit: I gotta go, Ari. I have to...you know.
- Ari Plaguespit: Call me Legionnaire, crooktail, or I'll bonk you one.
- Bevin Acidspit: Sorry, Legionnaire. Can I go?
- Ari Plaguespit: Go on.
- (Bevin and Cara run ahead, followed by Ari before they all enter an iron tower on top of the ramp.)
