The lighthouse: Recovering the lost tome
(Dungeon Master): The librarian cheerfully agrees to show you his collection. He leads you below the tower, then motions you closer to speak.
this always sounds dirty to me for some reason. in a creepy old man kinda way. mebe like the old dude off family guy.

"I'll kill you, KILL YOU ALL!! And then he dies, effectively calling his own bluff." YarYar and the DM from Irestone Inlet.
You know we need a new quest that YarYar comes back as some form of undead just to take revenge for the Inlet.

I have to say this has got to be one of my favorites. Not so much for the words but the voice behind it. Another favorite is running Delera's with my guild leader and listening to him repeat the DM text there. He sounds just like Gary Gygax.

These are not DM texts, but things said by monsters, mostly in ADQ. I think whoever wrote the Pyrodemon's dialog had been watching Silence of the Lambs and Army of Darkness the night before. ;)
(Say): Pyrodemon says, ''I will drape myself in your flesh!''
(Say): Pyrodemon says, ''My kin will swallow your soul!''
(Say): Drow Scorpion says, ''Your head shall make an ugly trophy.''
(Say): Wildman Thrall says, ''I knew I smelled the blood of a runt!''
(Say): Adur-Nac says, ''Prepare to feast on pain and agony.''

"Kobolds never forget! Kobolds always hate you!"
Best line in the game by far! My favorite is when you kill the things so fast that the quote comes up after they've been laying on the ground a few seconds and you've already run down the hallway to the next fight. :)
Personally I would like to hear people like Sean Connery do a few dungeons..
"I should have given the book to the Marx brothers"
or, and this would be hilarious, Christopher Walken.
You walk in..<pause>...to the dungeon, you know.
its hot..<pause> ....and scary.
Your bones....... kinda quiver with anticipation.....you know
I would shell out double the normal price for a Christopher Walken-dm'd module! Maybe a quest where someone is sick and dying of a fever. They need you to steal a magical bell from a minotaur shaman to save their life. "And as the dying man sends you on your way, he grips your arm frantically and says..."

I don't remember the EXACT phrase, but I always loved the phrase when reaching the Hobgoblin village in STK, pt II:
'The hobgoblin village looks a lot like a human village... except for all the skulls"
And it's not DM text, but I love when the elves in Gwylan's scream "Stop Sticking Me!"

Something along the lines of "Yark Yark! Me hate big box!"

Yes, I think the devs might have watched it a time or two since they made the NPC say that. Maybe three times, even.

"Who disturbs my tomb dog, you will never leave this place alive."
And I always want to point to another player when I hear that. :D
Also, not DM text, but I really like the dialog in the new market quest where you rescue the family.
So there I was a lvl 16 killing machine, and I walked up to the first famliy member and said: "Come with me if you want to live."
Thought that was cool.
Talon_Moonshadow
01-08-2010, 07:48 PM
I always love the DM's Soft Female Voice,
"The chamber will close in 10 seconds"

Yeah, they seem to think a good D&D experiance is having a male DM do bad accents and female voices. lol.

I also like: "bow down and sacrifice yourself to the devourer."
And I always say, "Bow down and sacrifice yourself to me!" and then kill him. :) And the first time, I had a cleric who commanded him to do just that.

I don't believe you heard me stutter.... when I mentioned peanut butter.
A gelatanious cube? There's no use asking it ANYTHING! Kill it quick before it engulfs you!
The only DM audio I ever listen to. It's a runing joke in guild. My guild leader does a great imitation of this one, and it makes me laugh every single time.
Also, the line in Pt. 5 of the shroud. I don't know exactly what he says, but I know it ends with "Trickery!" and I always always always put "TRICKERY!" into the guild user chanel. It's like a guild trademark for me. Much like only getting on mic when I'm drunk :p

That's kind of like the completely flat ones in Threnal East 2 from Coyle -- most particularly: "That's done it. Doors open"
That one was a running joke in guild for a long time. Anytime someone had to open a door, someone would lay that one over VC..

In the one mindsunder quest where you rescue the mayor's son. There is a little halfling who I adore that you free (or think you do)

i also liked the dreaming dark dialogue when you face the shadow council:
"wait, i recognise this mortal.. is that.. X?"
"the same X that defeated sor'jek.. twice?"
the same X that defeated lailat in her own palace"
etc.
"i must go inform the dream stealer at once" (iirc thats his name? might be wrong, not woken up yet)
"we must go too!" *half of them disappear*

Mine is: "The strong smell of sewage permeates the air around you."

There are a lot of gag names and tributes in this game...
"Private Jake" in WaterWorks
The tip that misquotes Bruce Campbell from Army of Darkness:
"Good, Bad, I'm the guy with the +5 repeating crossbow" (or similar)
The Spellsinger in the second room of the second Sharn Syndicate quest, as you kill him:
"Right! I'll do you for that!"
I'm not sure, but I may have seen a "It's only a flesh wound..." somewhere in the mix, but don't quote me on it :D

Haven't seen much of this awesome game yet, but I love every single instance of the "standard" DM voice saying the word 'room' and whenever he impersonates someone or something else.
from irestonle inlet:
(Dungeon Master): Hobble the hobgoblin stands with weapons drawn and a foul expression on his face.
(Dungeon Master): Hobble the hobgoblin has been hacked apart!
from VoN 1:
(Dungeon Master): Kegs of potent liquor have been attached to these battering rams for easy transport. It's a marvel of hobgoblin ingenuity!
