Atma

Atma is an NPC found in Lut Gholein, in the tavern on the eastern side of town, just up the path from the town portal spot. She is not a merchant and does not buy or sell anything, though she can heal characters and their minions, as can Fara. The fact that Atma is slightly closer to the town portal area makes her potentially useful, if you are running to heal a badly-poisoned merc. She periodically bursts into tears and cries hysterically for a few seconds, presumably over her husband and son. She recovers quickly, strangely enough, and wipes her face with her sleeve.

Atma gives the Radament's Lair quest to start off Act Two, but it's not necessary to speak with her before or during the quest. For this quest the character is rewarded with lower prices in town, but speaking with Atma is not required to obtain this reward.

Greetings

Farewell.

Goodbye.

Good day.

Good evening.

Good morning.

Greetings.

Greetings, hero.

Hello.

Hello again. Things have been very quiet around here since you left.

I need you help.

Return, anytime.

Tell me your troubles.

There's no trouble a mug can't cure.

Yes?

Dialogues

Atma is not very talkative, is not funny, and does not offer any useful advice or hints about any of the quests.

Introduction

You'll forgive me if I seem upset. I've suffered a loss recently, but that's not your problem. It's a relief to see some proper warriors come through here. My name is Atma. I run the tavern here in Lut Gholein.

Radament's Lair

Atma gives this quest, but it's not necessary to talk to her before, during, or after it.

Activation

I don't expect this of you, but if you want to help me, I would be grateful.

In the sewers below our city, there lurks a horrid creature that hungers for human flesh. The creature has killed many, including my son and my husband.

If you destroy it, I will reward you. Please be careful though, that beast has taken enough from us already.

The sewer entrance is through the trap door just up the street.

After Activation

The creature makes its lair in the tunnels beneath this city. He butchered my husband and son... I simply cannot bear to talk about it...

I am starting to have second thoughts about my request... I couldn't bear the thought of you losing your life on my behalf. Please be careful.

After Completion

They say that the taste of vengeance is bittersweet, but I find it to my liking. In addition to my undying gratitude, I have spoken on your behalf with the rest of the townspeople. The merchants have agreed to show their gratitude by offering their wares and services at lower rates. Oh... Jerhyn wants to see you, too. You'll find him in front of the palace.

Quest Tips

Drognan, the wizard, will have some idea as to what is happening.

I was going to go to bed, but then I realized that I have no idea what time it is. It could be the crack of dawn, for all I know.

After Completion

You have done well to restore light to our world.

Quest Tips

Arcane Sanctuary? That place sounds awful! Even if you find a way into it, what makes you think you'll be able to leave again?

So you've been in the palace, have you? Tell me, why does Jerhyn keep that place locked up so tight?

After Completion

Oh, those poor women! Will the slaughter never end? Thank you once again for protecting our city.

Quest Tips

You always seem to find the worst trouble. I don't know how you handle it.

After Completion

You're more the hero than I could have dreamed. Perhaps, there is hope for us after all.

Quest Tips

I've heard legends of the Tomb of Tal Rasha, but I thought they were just old tales meant to scare young children.

After Completion

You have proven to be the greatest of heroes, and I am honored to call you friend. Thank you for bringing peace to our lives again.

Gossip

General

Evil has laid siege to Lut Gholein and you may be our last hope...

This public house used to be quite lively, until this plague of evil. Luckily, I've managed to save away a tidy nest egg. Unfortunately, I couldn't save everything I cared for...

In addition to my public house, there used to be several brothels doing business here. When the troubles first started in the desert, the harem guilds sought sanctuary within the palace.

Of course, Jerhyn was glad to oblige. I'll bet they're finding many ways to repay him for his protection.

About Drognan

Drognan is a very private person. He's always studying ancient scrolls and such. He may be a mystery to me forever.

About Elzix

Elzix and I have reached an understanding over the years. He sends travelers to me for drink and entertainment, and I send them back to him for a soft bed. The travelers often trade their wares for lodging.

About Geglash

Geglash may seem like a sot, but he's a brave man. All this trouble has driven him to drinking more than his usual.

About Lysander

Oh, Lysander is cranky, but he's a good old man. He used to give me medicines when... my son was ill.

About Meshif

Meshif seldom patronizes my establishment. I think he prefers to stay out there on his leaky ship.
