That’s right, it’s that time of year:

New speech verbiage!:
affirms
blusters
cautions
chirps
croaks
elaborates
encourages
gasps
hushes
maunders
mocks
prods
proposes
recites
scoffs
snickers
wheedles
yells

Using yell and recite via speech verbiage within SAY will strip them of their associated verb functions (i.e. yell within SAY doesn’t go to surrounding rooms; recite within SAY doesn’t format into stanzas). Just use the YELL and RECITE verb per usual when you want that special functionality.

New tones!:
aggressive/aggressively
animated/animatedly
apocryphal/apocryphally
austere/austerely
biting/bitingly
charming/charmingly
diabolical/diabolically
dispirited/dispiritedly
dumbfounded/dumbfoundedly
enchanted/enchantedly
fascinated/fascinatedly
impassive/impassively
impertinent/impertinently
lewd/lewdly
malicious/maliciously
passive/passively
perfunctory/perfunctorily
shameless/shamelessly
spurious/spuriously
squeamish/squeamishly
sublime/sublimely
vengeful/vengefully

If you don’t know anything about speech verbs and tone verbs, in short, they allow you to speak with more UMPH! For example, instead of:
Roxe exclaims, “Wine ain’t a substitute for rum!”
…you could use…
Roxe dumbfoundedly gasps, “Wine ain’t a substitute for rum!”
…or…
Roxe defiantly asserts, “Wine ain’t a substitute for rum!”
etc.

Merry Fashanos! Enjoy the new speechisms and tones!

From nearby, you hear Ordim yell, “Dont eat meeeeee!”

The shaggy mutt sniffs at a vine-painted mistwood keg, then grabs it in its teeth and greedily wolfs it down before anyone can grab it!

Excellent additions. Thank you!


Walsor Gryhm says, “Hmm, a most impressive weapon of note. I’ll give you 16 silver coins for it.”
You think to yourself, “This deal is getting worse all the time.”
