Gek Quest Dialogue

1. Description: I have caught the trader red-handed. Products and elements are pouring out of the facility’s storage vaults, and into its own inventory. Above the gentle buzz of embezzlement that now surrounds us, I can hear the lifeform’s terrified gulps.

  • Demand a share
  • Demand all stolen goods

2. Description: The trader seems ill. Its skin is flaking, and its eyes lack a certain luster. It slowly gabbles at me, and as it does its voice croaks.
A strange dry, flat stench fills every corner of the facility. I inspect my exosuit for things I could offer it…
Answers:

  • Give water from exosuit’s hydration system – You’ll increase your Gek standing and get a crafting schematic.
  • Give food from exosuit’s nutrient system

3. Description: The trader looks weak, but somehow cunning. It spins its datapad towards me, and I can see that it’s a multi-tool sales-creature. The prices of its technology blueprints are, however, eye-watering.
It eyes me with a wary interest, waiting to see if I’ll bite…
Answers:

  • Pressure lifeform into accepting less (10 UNITS) – You’ll get a blueprint, but your Gek reputation will decrease.
  • Pay requested amount (1000 UNITS)

    • Request help with planetary conditions – This will get you some reputation and a new blueprint.
    • Request help with the Sentinels – Gek reputation increase, and Multi-tool.

    5. Description: The small creature is busy adding up trade profits when I appear. Its eyes open wide in anticipation of our first contact, and it rubs its fingers together greedily.
    It pecks emphatically at the monetary figures on its pad, then bounces up and down. I can’t help but notice that it smells amazing.
    Answers:

    • Pat the lifeform on the head – This will decrease your Gek reputation and the alien will refuse to speak to you again.
    • Apologise for being unable to help
    • Give units (10 UNITS) – This one will increase your Gek reputation and get you a blueprint.

    7. Description: The lifeform sits in a foul-smelling funk of its own creation. The trading screen behind ot is empty, the equipment it carries is old and uncared for and its suit barley looks alright.

    • Shake hands
    • Give units (10 units) – You’ll get increased standing with the Gek and a blueprint.

    8. Description: The Lifeform’s Eyes widen in surprise when I go to talk to It. It leans back, and watches for sudden movements. It’s very clearly never seen anything quite like me before.

    • Give silicate (10 heridium) – Learn 2 new Gek words

    9. Description: The trader eyes the facility exit door sadly, as if it had been stuck in here for a while. It reaches down with its beak and dejectedly pecks at its suit’s power cells and life support system.
    It looks run down. The lack of chearge means that it’s ill-equipped for the planetary conditions and predators that rage outside.
    Answers:

    • Give Silicate element (10 Heridium) – You won’t get anything.
    • Give Isotope element (10 Carbon) – You’ll be rewarded with a blueprint and increased Gek reputation.

    10. Description: The Trader emits a strong, flowery scent, which quickly enters my exosuit system. I feel overcome with nostalgia for a perfect place I have never visited. I want to sing.
    Flushed with Joy, I try to signal my thanks to the trader for this olfactory gift, but it makes clear that it expects something in return.
    Answers:

    • Refuse – You’ll receive a new blueprint and a fart.
    • Give rare oxide (200 Titanium) – Increased standing with the race.
    • Give units (100 Units) – The lifeform will fart in your general direction.

    11. Description: The lifeform is poring over complex starship schematics and holding its breath, but the holographic blueprints look corrupted. Damaged in-flight, perhaps. The forlorn trader, its face smudged by atmospheric dust that somehow breached its ship, looks up to me for help.

    Answers:

    • Reassure with Boltcaster – Decrease Gek reputation.
    • Reassure with Mining Beam – Increase Gek reputation.

    14. Description: Images of warrior battle freighters fill the shocked trader’s screen. They dwarf small trader ships as the pass by, like predatory fish innocuously swimming among their prey.

    16. Description: The trader is studying a stash of interesting-looking technology and weaponry that’s been dragged through this facility and left inside a disposal vault. It looks at me conspiratorially, and indicates the dangerous-looking symbol that’s daubed on the vault hatch.
    The equipment appears rusted and broken on-screen, but if we were to eject it all out onto the floor of the outpost we’d be able to better investigate. The trader looks at me, shrugs and holds its breath.

    • Remove and examine equipment – Technology Blueprint
    • Incinerate equipment – Gek standing increase, 1 900 Credits.

    17. Description: The second the trader goes to greet me it becomes covered from head to foot with arcs of electricity. The blue sparks fade, and it grabs the lapels of my exosuit as if possessed. It screams at me in wild-eyed desperation.
