Got some free time tonight, going to try to update all the NPCs at Themwar's Shield (The dam).

These NPCs had nothing recorded from Live so I made a compilation of what other dwarves in the area say and put it on their script.
Kazzam Shatterhorn
Throt Kragflayer
Thovruri Wraithbow
Gradmalda Leadbane
Bruloc Strongstone
Nemnubyrn Windmaker
Thaddal Bouldermaul

Non Dwarf NPCs with missing dialogue:
Connor Greene
Axilya Aesandoral

Today's Work:
It's in the Air: Complete. Updated with current loot handling code and other things. I might need to redo this one in the near future as the devs need to ad in a function that will make this one work better (And similar quests where you get one item and replace it with another)

Today's Work:

Quests:
A Deeper Mystery - Complete. Updated with current loot handling code. Updated Object scripts as well.
Suppression - Complete. Nothing special here, just a kill quest.
Lower the Guard - Complete. Nothing special here, just a kill quest.
Lost Lockboxes - Complete. Updated the object scripts as well. This quest has at least two medium armor chestpieces with exactly the same awful stats Con and SDF. Copper Studded Chestpiece and Copper Breastplate of Persistence
Tome of Stone - Complete. This quest has two medium armor pauldrons that have the same stats (Smooth Investigator's Pauldrons and Blessed Investigator's Pauldrons).
Patrol The Shield - Complete. I redid this one so it requires more interaction from the player than a simple 'go to location' quest. This is yet another quest with two items that are identical. When I'm done with the quests, I'm seriously going to look into editing these.
Crystal Experts - Complete. Added missing objective.
Gathering Crystal - Complete. Used the polygon setup so that you don't have to find the exact tiniest specified location to get a sample of the fallen star. Instead you can get it from mostly around the entire thing. Added missing objective.
Lay Low For Now- No changes needed
Assistance for Three Rivers - Updated to current standards. Not sure I like how this one is handled for the turn-in NPC, but I'll leave it for now as it works.
Speak to Inquisitor Hammerheart - No changes needed.


NPCs:
Captain Stoneforge: Redid from scratch
Necro Instructor (Gotta get their name): Redid from scratch and added "The Art of Death" questline.
Crystalbarb - Named Ant. He has a bard horn that's the only loot item we have for him, so I've added it to his loot table.

Today's Work: Missives! Missives are pretty weird in that a lot of them auto complete, and it's confusing. But some of them have an actual turn-in NPC and that's even more confusing. But w/e, it's time to set up the missives in 3R.

The following quests have been set up and are completed:
Task for Three Rivers: Giant Spiders
Task for Three Rivers: Zihurr Arthropods
Task for Three Rivers: Fallen Star Fragments
Task for Three Rivers: Venomous Mudcroakers
Task for Three Rivers: Leechsnakes
Task for Three Rivers: Murk Tortoise Eggs (note: This one has an actual turn in NPC so it will not auto complete)
Task for Three Rivers: Road to Bordinar's Cleft
Task for Three Rivers: Beyond Khazbatak
Task for Three Rivers: Stone Slimes
Task for Three Rivers: River Cleansing
Task for Three Rivers: Bugbear Expansion
Task for Three Rivers: Supplies for Khazbatak (note: This one has an actual turn in NPC so it will not auto complete)
Task for Three Rivers: Stonesmasher Gamehunters
Task for Three Rivers: Clan Bears (note: This one has an actual turn in NPC so it will not auto complete)
Task for Three Rivers: Greater Stonesmashers
Task for Three Rivers: Dreckwater Mosquitoes (I don't think this one gave faction like the others? Someone going through it fresh might need to check)

Other stuff:
Edited the Chunk Script to show the names of the Khazbatak Bridge and Bloodaxe Bridge on entry
