In addition to conflicted, damaged, quest based characters, I also wanted to add some lighthearted, well-adjusted NPCs to the mix. This child isn’t an orphan – she has two parents that love her. She isn’t wacky or zany, but I think she’s interesting and memorable in her own way. Mostly, it’s an opportunity to show off Zillac‘s amazing child voice. Hopefully, we’ll be hearing more from her in the future.
I don’t know if this will make it into Monday’s update, it depends on if I can get at least one of the parents voiced by then. Otherwise it’ll have to wait a couple more weeks.
Is it wrong that this character had me thinking of “accidents” that might befall her parents? Different reason, but ole’ Lemkil over in Rorikstead always seems to have the worst luck when it comes to “accidents”.
Actually, that’s pretty much what everyone will think. That’s the first thing I considered too when making the NPC. But I typically like to go against expectation. We’ll see with this one.
