8 | DN019JoinCultAfterJoining | | {Irritated} What now? | Player Default: I just wanted to thank you. Becoming a Pillar has changed my life. | A |
9 | | {Friendly} What is it, neighbor? | Player Default: I just wanted to thank you. Becoming a Pillar has changed my life. | A |
10 | Player Default: I just wanted to thank you. Becoming a Pillar has changed my life. | {surprised and then with false heartiness / Happy} Oh, uh, thanks! Just keep working on level one and see if good things don't start to happen. "I deserve a better life" am I right? | | A1a |
11 | Player Default: I need my stuff back. Or else. | {Irritated} There wasn't really a money-back guarantee on offer. Sorry. | | B1a |
12 | Player Default: I need to talk to Emogene Cabot. | {encouragingly / Confident} Oh, you'll know. Good things will start to happen. You'll see. You just have to keep working on level one until they do. | | Y1a |
13 | DN019JoinCultEmogene | | {soothingly - trying to deflect player / Apologetic} Oh, I'm sorry, but Emogene is indisposed right now. She's not seeing visitors. | Player Default: Her family's worried about her. | A1a |
14 | | {smoothly / Apologetic} I already told you, Emogene can't have any visitors right now. | Player Default: Her family's worried about her. | A2a |
15 | Player Default: I'm a friend of the family. Maybe I can talk some sense into her. | {relieved - glad to spill your guts to someone / Conspiratorial} Look... truth is, we had a little, uh, disagreement about her joining the movement. She got kind of violent. | | A1a |
16 | | {relieved - glad to spill your guts to someone / Concerned} So I locked her in there until I could figure out what to do with her. | | A1b |
17 | | {Relieved} If you're willing to take her off my hands... let me unlock the door for you and then she's all yours. | | A1c |
18 | Player Default: I'm a friend of the family. Maybe I can talk some sense into her. | {getting irritated / Defiant} I said she wasn't seeing anybody, including you. | | A2a |
19 | Player Default: I killed the last guy who was running this scam. In case that matters to you. | {this whole thing suddenly escalated past where you wanted it to go / Nervous} Uh, good to know. Let me just unlock the door for you, okay? | | B1a |
20 | Player Default: I killed the last guy who was running this scam. In case that matters to you. | {this whole thing suddenly escalated past where you wanted it to go / Worried} Take it easy. If you want to see her so bad, don't let me stand in your way. Here, I'll unlock the door for you. | | B2a |
21 | Player Default: I killed the last guy who was running this scam. In case that matters to you. | {fake hurt - you and the player aren't friends, you just met / Surprised} Wow. You went right to throwing your weight around. I thought we were friends. | | B3a |
22 | | {fake hurt / Concerned} If you want to see her so bad, don't let me stand in your way. Here, I'll unlock the door for you. | | B3b |
23 | Player Default: I killed the last guy who was running this scam. In case that matters to you. | {threat - you're about the fight the player / Angry} You picked the wrong guy to mess with, pal. | | B4a |
24 | Player Default: Never mind then. | {smoothly getting back to what you want to talk about / Friendly} Okay, so... where were we? Oh yes, we were discussing the first step of becoming a Pillar of the Community. | | X1a |
25 | | {who wouldn't want that? / Friendly} You were about to free yourself of your material possessions. | Player Default: Here, this is everything I have. | X1b |
26 | Player Default: Never mind then. | {Friendly} Okay. | | X2a |
27 | Player Default: You're not holding her prisoner, are you? | {you know how it is - women, amiright? / Confident} No. She's not a prisoner. She's just locked in her room until she calms down. | CultLeader: She was acting crazy, threatening to run off. You know how women can get. | Y1a |
28 | Player Default: Her family's worried about her. | {soothingly / Confident} You can tell them that she's fine. | CultLeader: I already told you, Emogene can't have any visitors right now. | A1a |
29 | Player Default: I'm not leaving without seeing her. | {worried that the player is being so persistent / Nervous} You can't see her. She, uh, can't come out of her room right now. | CultLeader: I already told you, Emogene can't have any visitors right now. | B1a |
30 | Player Default: I just need to make sure she's okay. | {smoothly / Confident} You've got my word. She's fine. She's just staying in her room right now. | CultLeader: I already told you, Emogene can't have any visitors right now. | X1a |
31 | Player Default: What's she doing here? Is she a member of your movement? | {fake attempt at revealing a personal secret / Conspiratorial} Actually she and I are... you know, romantically involved. | CultLeader: I already told you, Emogene can't have any visitors right now. | Y1a |
32 | Player Default: You can tell them that she's fine. | {man to man / Conspiratorial} Not that it's any of your business, but she and I are just having a little... relationship trouble. You know how it is. | | A2a |
33 | | {you know how it is, right? / Apologetic} She's not seeing anybody until she cools off. | Player Default: I'm a friend of the family. Maybe I can talk some sense into her. | A2b |
34 | CultLeader: No. She's not a prisoner. She's just locked in her room until she calms down. | {man to man / Conspiratorial} She was acting crazy, threatening to run off. You know how women can get. | | Y1a |
35 | CultLeader: No. She's not a prisoner. She's just locked in her room until she calms down. | {you remember you're talking to a woman half-way through this little anecdote / Conspiratorial} She was acting crazy, threatening to run off. No offense, but you know how women can get sometimes. | | Y2a |
36 | DN019JoinCultEmogeneBribe | | {with a big smile - you love getting bribed / Friendly} Well, that's different. | | A1a |
37 | | {uncomfortable to admit that you couldn't handle her / Nervous} Truth is, we had a little, uh, disagreement about her joining the movement. She got kind of violent. | | A1b |
38 | | {relieved that she's now someone else's problem / Relieved} So I locked her in there until I could figure out what to do with her. For 500 caps, I'm happy to make her your problem. | | A1c |
39 | | {Neutral} Here, let me unlock the door for you. | CultLeader: I've got to warn you. She's way stronger than she looks. Took all of us combined to even get her locked up in there. | A1d |
40 | | {outraged - you doubt my honor, sir? / Stern} What kind of a person do you think I am? I'm not going to take money to let you see my woman. | Player Default: I'm a friend of the family. Maybe I can talk some sense into her. | A2a |
41 | DN019JoinCultOfficeGaveItems | Player Default: "I deserve a better life. A better life is coming. A better life is almost here." | {super friendly - you can't believe your luck in finding the most gullible sucker in the world / Friendly} That's it, neighbor. Keep it up, and remember to tell all your friends about us. | | A1a |
42 | Player Default: I can't believe I gave you everything for a stupid self-help mantra. | {dismissive and now bored / Concerned} You'll never get to level two with that attitude. | | B1a |
43 | Player Default: I guess it can't hurt. | {dismissive and now bored / Concerned} You're going to have to work on that attitude if you want to get to level two. | | X1a |
44 | | {trying your best to sound sincere / Friendly} So, here's level one - repeat this mantra to yourself until you truly believe it: | | A1a |
45 | | {Confident} I deserve a better life. A better life is coming. A better life is almost here. | | A1b |
46 | | {trying hard to sound sincere although you don't believe any of this / Friendly} Once you truly believe that in your innermost self, you'll be ready for level two. That's when things will really start to happen for you. | Player Default: "I deserve a better life. A better life is coming. A better life is almost here." | A1c |
47 | DN019JoinCultOfficeNeutral01 | Player Default: Okay, fine. Here's everything I've got. | {you're getting tired of putting on your "friendly" act but you're still trying / Friendly} You won't regret it, I promise. Congratulations, you're officially a Pillar of the Community. | Player Default: "I deserve a better life. A better life is coming. A better life is almost here." | A1a |
48 | Player Default: I thought you said there was no obligation. | {dropping the friendly act / SinisterSmile} It's possible I may have lied a little bit about that. | | Y1a |
49 | | {threateningly / SinisterSmile} This is the point where you hand over all your stuff so that we can stay friends. | | Y1b |
50 | DN019JoinCultOfficeScene | | {Friendly} The first step is simple. | | A1a |
51 | | {Friendly} You have to learn to give up your attachment to material possessions in order to gain the ability to have true wealth, health, and happiness. | | A1b |
52 | | {Friendly} Just go ahead and give me everything you own, and I'll initiate you as a first level Pillar of the Community. | | A1c |
53 | Player Default: Here, this is everything I have. | {you can't really believe you found another sucker - momentarily befuddled by the player's gullibility / Surprised} Oh, you're really going to... | | A1a |
54 | | {getting a bit bored with your friendly act / Friendly} Uh... welcome! You've made a brave step into a bright future. You're now officially a Pillar of the Community. | Player Default: "I deserve a better life. A better life is coming. A better life is almost here." | A1b |
55 | Player Default: You must think I'm an idiot. | {dropping the friendly act like the mask it is / Sarcastic} Well you came in here, didn't you? | | B1a |
56 | | {dropping the friendly act / SinisterSmile} Now, you've got two choices. Give me everything you've got. Or... we take it anyway. | Player Default: Okay, fine. Here's everything I've got. | B1b |
57 | Player Default: You've got to be kidding. You want me to give you everything I have? | {keeping up the friendly act / Friendly} The first step is the hardest, neighbor. | | X1a |
58 | | {Friendly} But it's the only way to cast off your old life and start on the road towards your future health, wealth, and happiness. | | X1b |
59 | | {Happy} Don't you think that's worth a small temporary sacrifice? | Player Default: Okay, fine. Here's everything I've got. | X1c |
60 | Player Default: I'm actually just looking for Emogene Cabot. | {Friendly} You're still stuck in old thinking. You're still clinging to your old life. | | Y1a |
61 | | {Friendly} But that's what you came here to give up. And the first step is to shed yourself of your material possessions. | Player Default: Here, this is everything I have. | Y1b |
62 | | {with a grim smile - you're about to attack the player / SinisterSmile} Did I say "no obligation"? I was kind of lying about that. | | A1a |
63 | | {threateningly - you're about to attack the player / Stern} No, no. Too late to back out now. | | A2a |
64 | Player Default: Okay, fine. Here's everything I've got. | {bored and relieved you can stop your salesman routine / Happy} Good choice. Congratulations, you're officially a Pillar of the Community. | | A1a |
65 | | {not angry, just bored and tired of putting on your nice act / Tired} Now get the fuck out of my office. | | A1b |
66 | Player Default: Okay, fine. Here's everything I've got. | {still keeping up the friendly act / Happy} Good choice. Congratulations, you're officially a Pillar of the Community. | Player Default: "I deserve a better life. A better life is coming. A better life is almost here." | A2a |
67 | Player Default: I'm walking out of here. Your choice what you want to do about it. | {considering if you're going to kill the player or not / Tired} Ah... you're not worth the trouble. Plenty of easier marks. Get out of here before I change my mind. | | B1a |
68 | Player Default: I'm walking out of here. Your choice what you want to do about it. | {dropping the friendly act like the mask it is - you're about to attack the player / SinisterSmile} That's not how this works. | | B2a |
69 | Player Default: You can't seriously think I'm handing over all my stuff. | {dropping the friendly act - this is you being honest about what you actually do / SinisterSmile} The world is full of suckers, pal. Just look outside. Every one of them handed over everything they owned in return for... hmm, well. Hope? | | X1a |
70 | | {Sarcastic} Sure it's false hope, but hey. It was worth it to them. | | X1b |
71 | | {SinisterSmile} You can tell yourself whatever you want, but you're leaving here naked or horizontal. Your choice. | | X1c |
72 | Player Default: What if I've changed my mind and don't want to join anymore? | {dropping the friendly facade a bit / Stern} No, sorry, I'm afraid we're past that point. You really do need to give me everything. Now. | | Y1a |
73 | DN019JoinCultOpenDoor | | Oh right. I was supposed to be letting you in to see Emogene. | CultLeader: I've got to warn you. She's way stronger than she looks. Took all of us combined to even get her locked up in there. | A |
74 | NPCMDN019CultLeader: Oh right. I was supposed to be letting you in to see Emogene. | {Worried} I've got to warn you. She's way stronger than she looks. Took all of us combined to even get her locked up in there. | CultLeader: All yours, pal. | A1a |
75 | CultLeader: I've got to warn you. She's way stronger than she looks. Took all of us combined to even get her locked up in there. | {you've dropped the friendly act / Irritated} All yours, pal. | | A1a |
76 | CultLeader: I've got to warn you. She's way stronger than she looks. Took all of us combined to even get her locked up in there. | {still doing your friendly act / Friendly} She's all yours, neighbor. | | A2a |
77 | DN019JoinCultQuestions | Player Default: I don't have any more questions. | {Friendly} Good. Then I hope you're ready to take your first step into your new life as one of the Pillars of the Community. | Player Default: Yes I am. | B1a |
78 | Player Default: What do I have to do to join your movement? | {Happy} That's the beauty of it, neighbor! You don't have to do anything - except have a willing spirit and open your heart to the possibilities! | CultLeader: Anything else you're wondering about before we get started? | X1a |
79 | Player Default: What if I change my mind after I join? | {Friendly} There's absolutely no obligation! But trust me, once you see how your life is transformed, you won't want to leave. | | Y1a |
80 | | {Happy} Believe it or not, we have never had a single Pillar leave after joining. There's not many groups like ours that could make that claim, are there? | CultLeader: Anything else you're wondering about before we get started? | Y1b |
81 | Player Default: Maybe you've wondered, "Why can't life be like that again?" Well, neighbor, I'm here to tell you that it can be! | {Friendly} Anything else you're wondering about before we get started? | Player Default: What's your movement all about? | A1a |
82 | DN019JoinCultScene | | {Friendly} I haven't forgotten that you wanted to find out what our group is all about. | CultLeader: We call ourselves the Pillars of the Community. We're a pretty new movement so you may not have heard of us. | A |
83 | | {Friendly} Welcome, neighbor! We're always glad to see a new face around here. | CultLeader: Step right this way and I'll be happy to tell you all about our movement and how you can be a part of it. | A |
84 | Player Default: Sounds good. | {Happy} Well that's just fantastic! I know you're going to fit right in around here. | | A1a |
85 | Player Default: The last guy who gave me this sales pitch ended up dead. | {Nervous} Then I'll just let you be on your way. I'm not looking for any trouble with you. | CultLeader: What do you say? Ready to take that first step into a new life? | B1a |
86 | Player Default: The last guy who gave me this sales pitch ended up dead. | {car salesman smooth - "giving away", not selling! / Happy} I'm not selling anything, neighbor, I'm giving away the secrets of long life, happiness, and prosperity. Giving them away! | CultLeader: What do you say? Ready to take that first step into a new life? | B2a |
87 | Player Default: I'm not looking for a sales pitch. | {Happy} A sales pitch is the last thing I would ever give you. | CultLeader: I'm not selling anything, neighbor, I'm giving away the secrets of long life, happiness, and prosperity. Giving them away! | X1a |
88 | Player Default: I'm looking for Emogene Cabot. | {Happy} I'm glad you asked. | CultLeader: Our mission is nothing less than to transform the entire Commonwealth, one life at a time. | Y1a |
89 | CultLeader: But we're growing fast all across the Commonwealth, and you can be part of this exciting future. | {how can you resist this friendly offer? / Happy} Step right this way and I'll be happy to tell you all about our movement and how you can be a part of it. | Player Default: Sounds good. | A1a |
90 | Player Default: I'm glad you asked. | {presenting a golden vision - irresistable, right? / Confident} Our mission is nothing less than to transform the entire Commonwealth, one life at a time. | | Y1a |
91 | | {Question} Maybe you've seen pictures or heard stories about what life was like back before the Great War. | | Y1b |
92 | | {it can be! / Happy} Maybe you've wondered, "Why can't life be like that again?" Well, neighbor, I'm here to tell you that it can be! | CultLeader: What do you say? Ready to take that first step into a new life? | Y1c |
93 | CultLeader: I'm not selling anything, neighbor, I'm giving away the secrets of long life, happiness, and prosperity. Giving them away! | {Friendly} What do you say? Ready to take that first step into a new life? | Player Default: Yes I am. | A1a |
94 | Player Default: Yes I am. | {Happy} All right, then! Fantastic! You won't regret it, I promise you. | | A1a |
95 | | {Conspiratorial} We haven't had a single Pillar leave the movement since we started. | | A1b |
96 | Player Default: Not a chance. | {car salesman smooth - no threat here / Apologetic} Well, I'm sorry to hear that. I really can't take no for an answer, though. | | B1a |
97 | | {you just HAVE to learn more / Confident} Once you find out all the benefits of being one of the Pillars, I think you'll see where I'm coming from. | | B1b |
98 | Player Default: I'm not sure. | {Friendly} Of course - how could you be sure until you'd experienced it for yourself? | | X1a |
99 | | {Happy} Just follow me and we'll get you started on a trial basis. I'm sure once you've seen what we have to offer, you'll be glad you gave it a chance. | | X1b |

101 | NPCMDN019CultLeader: Welcome, neighbor! We're always glad to see a new face around here. | {sincere - not really "conspiratorial" but more "between you and me, friend" feel / Conspiratorial} Tell me something. You ever feel like this whole world is broken? Do you ever wonder why things can't be the way they were in the good old days? | Player Default: Sounds good. | A1a |
102 | Player Default: The whole world is broken. | {car salesman smooth / Confident} That's what I used to think. Until I found a way to make a difference. To transform my life, and maybe everyone else's, too. | Player Default: Sounds good. | A1a |
103 | Player Default: I've got more important things to worry about. | {car salesman smooth / Confident} I doubt that, neighbor. What could be more important than transforming your life, and maybe the whole world along with it? | Player Default: Sounds good. | B1a |
104 | Player Default: I don't have time for this. | {car salesman smooth / Confident} You should make time for something this important, neighbor. Something that could change your life, and maybe the whole Commonwealth. | Player Default: Sounds good. | X1a |
105 | Player Default: I'm looking for Emogene Cabot. | {car salesman smooth / Friendly} Because if you are that kind of person, you've come to the right place, neighbor. | Player Default: Sounds good. | Y1a |
106 | Player Default: That's what I used to think. Until I found a way to make a difference.

108 | DN019JoinCultToOfficeScene | | There you are. Just a few things to take care of before you're an official Pillar of the Community. | CultLeader: Alrighty! I hope you're as excited as I am. This is one of my favorite parts of the job, getting to welcome new members into our movement. | A |
