Player: hi / hello
Rafzan: Hello, hello. Me peaceful, poor and honest goblin. Are you lookin' for trade or want to help me?
Player: business
Rafzan: Me humble little trader. Making a coin now and then, just enough not to starve to death. If you hear strange noise it's not dragon but empty stomach of poor goblin trader.
Player: dwarf
Rafzan: Beardmen are nasty. Always want to kill little goblin. No trade at all. Not good, not good.
Player: elves
Rafzan: They are mean and cruel. Humble goblin rarely trades with them. They would rather kill poor me if not too greedy for stuff only me can get them. ...
Rafzan: Still, they rob me of it for a few spare coins and there is noooo profit for poor goblin.
Player: goblin
Rafzan: Most goblins so afraid of everything, that they fight everything. Me different. Me just want trade.
Player: gold
Rafzan: Me have seen a gold coin once or twice. So bright and shiny it hurt me poor eyes. You surely are incredibly rich human who has even three or four coins at once! ...
Rafzan: Perhaps you want to exchange them for some things me offer? Just don't rob me too much, me little stupid goblin, have no idea what stuff is worth... you look honest, you surely pay fair price like I ask and tell if it's too cheap.
Player: help
Rafzan: So much to do, so little help. Me poor goblin desperately needs help. Me have a few tasks me need to be done. ...
Rafzan: I can offer you all money I made if you only help me a little with stuff which is easy for strong smart human but impossible for poor, little me.
Player: human
Rafzan: You humans are so big, strong, clever and beautiful. Me really feel little and green beside you. Must be sooo fun to be human. You surely always make profit!
Player: job
Rafzan: Me job merchant is. Me trade with all kinds of things. Me not good trader though, so you get everything incredibly cheap! ...

Player: merchant
Rafzan: Ah, yes, yes, merchant me be. Me is looking for help to start me business.
Player: name
Rafzan: Me humble name is Rafzan. Good old goblin name meaning honest, generous and nice person, I swear!
Player: profit
Rafzan: To be honest to me human friend, me only heard about it, never seen one. I imagine it's something cute and cuddly.
Player: ratmen
Rafzan: Furry guys are strange fellows. Always collecting things and stuff. Not easy to make them share, oh there is noooo profit for little, poor me to be made. ...
Rafzan: They build underground dens that can stretch quite far. Rumour has it the corym have strange tunnels that connect their different networks all over the world.
Player: rich
Rafzan: Me not rich, me only borrowed some stuff, only found some old used stuff here and there. You humans too clever for poor and honest goblin to make any profit at all. Hardly get enough to eat.
Player: swamp
Rafzan: Swamp is horrible. Slowly eating away at health of poor little goblin. No profit here at all. Me will die poor and desperate, probably eaten by giant mosquitoes.
Player: thais
Rafzan: Me heard Thais is big city with king! Must be strong and clever, to become chief of all humans. Me cannot imagine how many people you have to beat up to become king of all humans. ...
Rafzan: Surely he makes lot of profit in his pretty city.
Player: trade
Rafzan: Ah, you too clever for me to make any meagre profit. Just please, please don't rob poor stupid goblin too much, you master of shrewd trading.
Player: troll
Rafzan: Trolls are stupid and mean. Sometimes they trade, sometimes not. It is all about superstitions. If they think day is with bad omen they don't trade at all. ...
Rafzan: Sometimes me lucky, but trolls offer only crap and demand so much. There is nooo profit for poor me starving goblin.
Player: venore
Rafzan: Humans so clever. Much, much smarter than poor, stupid goblin. They have big rich town. Goblin lives here poor and hungry. Me so impressed by you strong and smart humans. ...
Rafzan: So much to learn from you. Poor goblin only sees pretty city from afar. Poor goblin too afraid to go there.
Player: task
Rafzan: Are you here to get a task or to report you finished task?
Player: report
Rafzan: What are you reporting about? Me advertising campaign, the perfume, recruitment of guards, keeping the ratmen busy, that you destroyed certain provisions or killing the marsh stalkers?
Player: get
Rafzan: So much to be done! Me desperately need advertising. Me have to create new ratmen perfume. Me in need of guards to keep me safe when trading. ...
Rafzan: Me looking for someone to keep ratmen busy, me need hero to destroy some ratmen stuff, and me need someone to kill evil marsh stalker.
Player: advertising
Rafzan: Me need to get well known all over the swamp. Cheapest prices, best service in whole swamp. Me need you to place some advertisement signs in the swamp. Are you helping poor me?

Player: yes
Rafzan: Oh, so thankful me be! Use this container in the correct order on the following: ...

Rafzan: Second, add a sample black swamp gas that can be found in some remote areas of the swamp. ...
Rafzan: Third, the fart of a rotworm. Rotworms eat the strangest things and their farts have a special ... odour. Use the container on a living rotworm. With some luck you catch a fart. ...
Rafzan: Last, you need to use the container on mouldy cheese, this is what ratmen love most! You might find some in possession of goblins. If you are done, return the container to me.
Player: guard
Rafzan: Me little, me weak. Me need strong guys to protect me. Sadly humans love more be adventurers than protecting poor goblin. Me think they think adventuring is more fun and safe. ...
Rafzan: Me think when something bad would happen to them, that would teach them. Are you helping poor me?
Player: yes
Rafzan: Oh, so thankful me be! Take this bow and secretly shoot them with it. It's only little bow, won't do much harm. Some of them might reconsider becoming me guard.
Player: busy
