## Dialogue

First encounter, without Hans:

**Leviat**...**Nowak**What the hell is that thing!?**Leviat**\*The thing hisses and bubbles to itself.\***Nowak**...I wanna leave.**Bosch**Agreed.
First encounter, with Hans (the beginning dialogue is the same):

**Leviat**... ...The Colony requires additional respiratory structures.**Bosch**It can talk?!**Nowak**What? What colony?**Hans**...Their vocalizations are intended for me.**Nowak**You know this thing?**Hans**I was previously an organ of the same colonial superorganism.In a sense, I was ""this thing"".Apologies if my face disturbs you, but I must remove my mask to communicate effectively**Leviat**Your autotomy will be chemically forgiven if you reintegrate immediately.**Hans**Why has a sterile bud been released to collect a single stray respiratory structure?Has the Colony found a minimally-destructive solution to non-senescent value drift?**Leviat**No.The provided instructions do not allow for engagement with any rogue actor or micro-colony.Reintegrate immediately or destructive reclamation will be the only outcome.**Hans**These micro-colonies have formed a mutualistic relationship with me.Any acts of destructive reclamation will fail.**Nowak**What is even happening?**Bosch**I think we just got called micro-colonies.**Hans**Explain the circumstance of your instructions and I will assess the possibility of reintegration.**Leviat**...To share our instructions would be Class 2 value drift.**Hans**It is the only viable outcome.**Leviat**...A non-euclidean pathogen has calcified 87% of the Colony's respiratory functions.Very few respiratory organs remain.You are of the very few that have not been afflicted.Reintegration of your respiratory functions would increase colony survival by 12%.**Hans**12%?!Are you confident?**Nowak**\*You have never heard shock in Hans' ""voice"" before.\***Leviat**Indeed.**Hans**...I will reintegrate immediately.**Leviat**Excellent, position your primary orifice appropriately.**Hans**...\*Hans rotates to face you for a moment.\*I will reintegrate, but first I require your physical assistance.**Leviat**Explain.**Hans**This micro-colony, vocalization Nowak...... requires my assistance before I can leave him.He is helpless without me.**Leviat**We will assist as long as future reintegration is secured.**Hans**It is....... Oh, you must mask your primary, secondary and tertiary orifices to avoid frightening the micro-colonies.They are mentally incapable of processing reality and cope through extreme pareidolia.This makes simple shapes extremely calming to them.**Leviat**Understood.**Bosch**...I hate everything about this.
Meeting them afterwards:

**Nowak**Hey, are you still willing to tag along with us?**Leviat**\*Leviat hisses in agreement.\*
Meeting them afterwards, with a full party:

**Nowak**Hey, are you still willing to tag along with us?**Leviat**\*Leviat hisses in disagreement.\*

## Trivia

* Leviat was named by Hans shortly after joining the party. Leviat was chosen as a name by Hans because she finally remembered the rest of the word "Leviathans".
* Leviat is the youngest party member being only a few days old.
* Leviat seems to be able to move significantly faster than the rest of the party, arriving at the destination long before the others have a chance to arrive. Hans is also capable of moving like this but she chooses not to because "it would make the microcolonies feel sad".
* Leviat is deeply concerned with value drift and as precaution refuses to speak to any party members except Hans.
* Leviat is always wet to the touch and smells strongly like himalayan salt and bovine placenta.
* Leviat was originally a similar height to Hans but was redrawn to be considerably larger and feature arms.
* Leviat's three masks were made by Hans. Hans made these masks to communicate different emotions she was experiencing and would change them to express her current mood.
* Leviat was the final party member designed for Brutal Orchestra's launch.
* Leviat and Hans colonial organism home was heavily inspired by the multimedia project "Mystery Flesh Pit".
