Villagers

Around town you will see various villagers, whether that be those who came from out of town (Warriors, Merchants, Tourists) or those who live inside the town (NPCs and old villagers).

With every boss killed and shop unlocked, you receive more NPCs plus villagers, inviting even more different ones to visit the town and see what's happening.

There are two types of classes for Dungeons in the world of Moonlighter. You can either be a Hero or a Merchant - not one or the other, which is why the protagonist, Will, is so unusual. Heroes and Merchants don't get along either and even though some have tried to bridge the gap between the two classes - Will is the first one to actually manage it.

## Classes

### Heroes

Heroes are classed as those who venture into Dungeons and kill the monsters inside either for fame and glory, or to keep people safe. While inside, they usually collect monster drops to sell when back in Rynoka, usually to the Le Retailer.

They have a generally good reputation amongst people and are held more in esteem by others compared to the Merchants.

One such example of a Hero was Masa's unnamed Mother.

### Merchants

Merchants are classed as those who venture into Dungeons and dodge their way through the monsters to reach the chests inside, which afterwards the loot they gather is sold in their own stores.

They don't really have a good reputation amongst people as they are seen to only care about the money, unlike the Heroes.

One such example of a Merchant was Will's grandpa and him for a while.

## Dialogues

### Start of the game

*If you faint in a Dungeon without a Pendant, the Dungeon will expel you.... Eventually... But the Guards can continue to attack while you are defenseless... That's why the Merchants need these Pendants and Heroes do not.*
*We sometimes call them Merchant Pendants as the people who first found them ended up becoming the first Merchants. The Pendants appear to be made of the same technology as the Dungeon doors. The Dungeons however look drastically different than the doors and Pendants.*

*It's said that even though Heroes were seen as braver, Merchants reached deeper parts of the Dungeons. I guess if your livelihood depends on it, you make it happen!*
*Next time I visit Rynoka, I hope to find some new Artifacts. I know most of the Dungeons were closed because they were too dangerous, but maybe somebody will find a way to defeat them!*

*With just a little creativity and some beef, goat cheese and slime sauce, you can create the perfect Merchant Burger! Bon appétit!*
*I do miss some of the recipes created from Artifacts found in the closed Dungeons. It's nearly impossible to find those ingredients now.*

*Heroes are really kind of like dumb jocks, are they not?*
*Merchants, you guys are the ones that get the job done!*

*But if you need that last minute potion before heading off to the Dungeons, the Wooden Hat has you covered!*
*I'd bet few Heroes carry potions though. Sounds like they don't need them! Perhaps more accurate - sounds like they don't THINK they need them.*

*Only Heroes should venture that deep into the Dungeons. They're the only ones strong enough to defeat the monsters at those depths.*
*Any Merchant worth their wares knows how to bypass a lack of combat strength- Carry lots of potions. And learn how to roll!*

*Heroes don't care about the money. They only wish to test their combat skills against the monsters of the Dungeon.*
*I'm sorry, but Heroes are brave and noble. Not greedy like you Merchants.*

### After killing the Golem King

*Artifacts from each Dungeon seem really different, even strange. It's like they are from different times. Different worlds.*
*Except for your Pendants. Those seem so similar to the Dungeon doors.*

*This is going to put Rynoka back on the map! They even reopened the Forest Dungeon in celebration!*
*I'd like to buy a souvenir from the Forest Dungeon, but those Artifacts are still just so darn expensive!*

*What do the various potions taste like? I don't want to try any!...but they do seem really tasty...*
*You Merchants have a really tough job. Dodging all those monsters just to gather a few items from chests...*

*Maybe Pete made it across the 5th Door and couldn't come back? Or maybe he found something worth staying for and just didn't want to come back!*
*I'd buy a book containing some of Crazy Pete's notes. I could study them myself then!*
