 	 	 	Miscellaneous Greetings 	Ah, what a magnificent place this once was. The very epicenter of learning here in Appalachia. Truly, nothing is as valuable as a good education. 	Wistful, looking around at the remains of a once-proud state university
 	 	 	Miscellaneous Greetings 	Hello once more! What can I do for you? 	Cheerful
 	 	 	Miscellaneous Hellos 	Ah, hello again. 	
 	 	 	Miscellaneous Hellos 	You're back! 	
 	 	 	Miscellaneous Hellos 	Hello once more. 	
 	 	 	Miscellaneous Hellos 	Good to see you again. 	
 	 	 	Miscellaneous Hellos 	Welcome once more to the hallowed grounds of Vault-Tec University. 	
 	 	 	Miscellaneous Hellos 	I imagine this campus was quite lovely once. 	Looking around at a college, with fond memories
 	 	 	Miscellaneous Hellos 	You can almost hear the hustle and bustle of students gathering, talking, and rushing to get to class. 	
 	 	 	Miscellaneous Hellos 	The school's quite intact. That's a pleasant surprise. 	
 	 	 	Miscellaneous Hellos 	This institution was quite prestigious in its day. 	
 	 	 	 	So, what brings you here to the hallowed halls of Vault-Tec University? Searching for knowledge? Foraging for supplies? 	Neutral, making conversation with a stranger, still sizing them up
 	 	 	 	Or perhaps some secret mission you can't talk about? 	Cheerful, said with a sort of sly, playful wink and in a low voice, pretending to be a spy
 	 	 	[Intelligence 8+] As Benjamin Franklin once said, an investment in knowledge pays the best interest. 	Well said! Well said, indeed! It's so good to meet a fellow devotee of the humanities. 	Enthusiastic
 	 	 	[Intelligence 8+] As Benjamin Franklin once said, an investment in knowledge pays the best interest. 	I don't mind saying that enlightened minds such as yours and mine are in desperately short supply of late. 	
 	 	 	Education will be vital to the rebuilding effort. 	It certainly will, and not just for the rebuilding of structures, machines and other scientific and technological pursuits. 	Like a professor lecturing
 	 	 	Education will be vital to the rebuilding effort. 	We must also repair the fabric of our society and our culture. We must embrace history, art, music, literature and philosophy. 	Rising passion, getting on a soapbox
 	 	 	Education will be vital to the rebuilding effort. 	Why, our mission must be nothing short of reclaiming that which makes us civilized. 	Enthusiasm and passion
 	 	 	You've got to be joking. An education is totally worthless now. 	Ignorance, the root and stem of all evil. That's Plato, and while I could take the time to explain who he was, I rather doubt you'd care. 	Indignant, haughty, feeling insulted
 	 	 	You've got to be joking. An education is totally worthless now. 	*Sigh* I don't mean to condescend, but it's enormously frustrating to encounter someone who doesn't care about all that we've lost. 	Exasperated, open with a sigh of frustration. Struggling to apologize, but you feel passionate about this
 	 	 	Yeah, that's great. I'll be going now. 	May your travels be always safe and your mind be always open. 	
 	 	 	Education will be vital to the rebuilding effort. 	Ah, well I'm afraid there's not much left to find. Time has not been kind to this proud institution. 	Wistful and sad
 	 	 	Education will be vital to the rebuilding effort. 	I myself scoured every classroom and laboratory that I could find, but to little avail. 	
 	 	 	Education will be vital to the rebuilding effort. 	Of course, it didn't help that I was constantly forced to hide from those slavering, deformed horrors roaming the halls. 	A mix of disgust and fear (you're referring to Feral Ghouls)
 	 	 	I'm foraging for supplies. 	Well, this isn't such a bad place for that, I suppose. 	
 	 	 	I'm foraging for supplies. 	I myself have made more than few forays into the musty corridors and classrooms in search of anything useful. 	
 	 	 	I'm foraging for supplies. 	I must give you fair warning, however, that the school is now home to bands of rasping mutant horrors that seem inclined toward violence. 	
 	 	 	I'm on a secret mission. 	Ah, a dash of intrigue always livens up my day. 	Amused, having fun
 	 	 	I'm on a secret mission. 	I admit, the mysteries of Appalachia have always appealed to me. I do enjoy a good tale of cryptid sightings or conspiracy theories. 	
 	 	 	I'm on a secret mission. 	If your objective is the preservation of knowledge, then I wish you great success. 	
 	 	 	None of your business. 	I've offended you. I'm sorry, that wasn't my intent. 	
 	 	 	None of your business. 	I suppose I'm just eager to engage someone - anyone - in conversation. Such opportunities are all too rare lately. 	
 	 	 	I'm here to meet someone, a woman with glasses and gray hair. Have you seen her? 	Not only have I seen her, we had a pleasant conversation just a short while ago. She went inside the school. I do hope she's safe. 	
 	 	 	[Intelligence 8+] Got any supplies you could share with a fellow enlightened mind? 	Normally, I'd have to politely refuse your request, but I think we've forged a bond, you and I. 	Friendly
 	 	 	[Intelligence 8+] Got any supplies you could share with a fellow enlightened mind? 	We're like two sailors navigating a stormy ocean of ignorance on a dark night, seeking the bright beacon of knowledge to guide us to safe harbor. 	Waxing poetic
 	 	 	[Intelligence 8+] Got any supplies you could share with a fellow enlightened mind? 	Here, a gift for a fellow seeker of wisdom. 	Handing the player something
 	 	 	Thanks for your time. 	Certainly. It was a genuine pleasure. 	The player just said goodbye
 	 	 	I have some questions. 	Ask away! 	
 	 	 	[Strength 8+] I need supplies and you're going to give them to me, because I will hit a man with glasses.	Now now, there's no need for violence. I'm happy to help. 	A bit flustered and scared, you've just been threatened
 	 	 	[Strength 8+] I need supplies and you're going to give them to me, because I will hit a man with glasses.	After all, as Dickens once wrote, no one is useless in this world who lightens the burdens of another. 	Flustered, intimidated. You've been threatened into giving the player supplies.
 	 	 	[Strength 8+] I need supplies and you're going to give them to me, because I will hit a man with glasses.	Here, have these with my compliments. 	
 	 	 	Where are you from? 	Up north. Connecticut. A small town called Monroe, named for the fifth president of the United States. 	Happy to make conversation and reminisce
 	 	 	Where are you from? 	It was quite lovely, especially in the autumn. My wife and I used to ride the bicycle trails on Sundays and then visit the local brewery for a pint.	
 	 	 	Where are you from? 	Ah, I do miss those days. And I miss my Millie, may she rest in everlasting peace. 	A note of sadness about losing your wife
 	 	 	What brings you to Appalachia? 	That's a bit of a story. Not long after the war, I lost my wife Millicent to cancer, likely brought on by the radiation. 	Looking back with sadness
 	 	 	What brings you to Appalachia? 	Every day I questioned whether to go on living at all. Without her, the days were empty, devoid of any purpose beyond the simple need to survive. 	
 	 	 	What brings you to Appalachia? 	But in time, once I'd learned to adapt to living in the world after the bombs, I decided to set a new goal for myself. 	
 	 	 	What brings you to Appalachia? 	I set out to visit those great American centers of learning that still remained intact. I've always felt at home in such places. 	
 	 	 	What brings you to Appalachia? 	And so, here I am, at least for a while. 	
 	 	 	What did you do before the war? 	I was a teacher. History and literature were my subjects. It always brought me great joy to illuminate the eager minds of children. 	Cheerful, a happy memory
 	 	 	What did you do before the war? 	Well, for the few who were interested, at any rate. High school students are easily distracted, I'm afraid. 	
 	 	 	That's all I wanted to know. 	Very well. Was there anything else? 	
 	 	 	What do you think about the Vault-Tec corporation? 	Well, I'd start by saying that without Vault-Tec, humanity would be lost. The Vaults saved precious lives and gave us a chance to rebuild. 	Proud
 	 	 	What do you think about the Vault-Tec corporation? 	Now, we all heard about the rumors and controversies, but what large corporation doesn't have to cope with such things from time to time? 	
 	 	 	What do you think about the Vault-Tec corporation? 	As far as I'm concerned, the only real blemish on Vault-Tec's record is the rather shameless corporate branding on display here at VTU. 	Disdain, haughty disapproval
