Vhailor Conversation guide / Banter

Annah, like the other companions, speaks at random intervals[1] to acknowledge her selection, to announce that she has leveled up, to express her mood or feelings about the other companions, to complain about missing her target while attacking, to warn that she is about to die, or simply to show that she is bored. She also has some conversations with other companions.

Annah is voiced by Sheena Easton and has a Scottish accent.

Note: Banter with other companions in the original game is rare and it is possible to miss the vast majority of it (only 12 out of the 78 fully-voiced banters play).[2] Qwinn's Tweak Pack contains a banter accelerator that fixes this problem, allowing most of the conversations to appear in one playthrough. Banter is usually initiated after resting or travelling.

Annah and Morte[]

Morte: Annah, could you stop flicking that tail, it's irritating.
Annah: If you shut your trap, then I'll stop waving my tail.
Morte: Flick away then.
Morte: So, fiendling, let me, uh, sit on your lap and hear a little story.
Annah: Oh yeah, you trying to sit in my lap would make a grand tale.... and a short one.
Morte: I'll just float over here and sulk then.
Morte: It couldn't hurt you to say a few words to me, fiendling.
Annah: Oh, aye, it could... hurt yeh, that is.
Morte: Say, Annah, does that tail go all the way up?
Annah: Oh, aye, up your bone box to rip out your brains.
Morte: (in a Scottish accent which is surprisingly accurate given the thick Morte accent, mimics Annah) 'Aye, up your bone box to rip out your brains.'
Annah: Stand away from me, Morte.
Morte: I can't stand anywhere. It's this uh, legs thing, you know?
Annah: FIND a way, skull.
Morte: You know, fiendling, I've seen the way you look at the chief. Nothing to be ashamed of. Just say something.
Annah: I'll never tell him how I feel, nor shall you prattle on to him about it. There's a mark o' doom on 'im, and I'll not sway him from his path. D'you hear me skull?
Morte: All right, all right, calm down. Sheesh.
Morte: If things get any worse I might as well go dip my pen in the Lady of Pain.
Annah: Watch yer bone box, skull, don't be takin' her name in vain like that!
Morte: What, you mean the Lady of Pain? Is talking about the Lady of Pain a bad thing? Why would the Lady of Pain mind us talking about her, Annah?
Annah: Are you tryin' to get us all carved to pieces? Don't you be temptin' fate with that, skull!
Morte: Fate shouldn't tempt me.
Morte: Uff, Powers Above, I've got this stupid itch on the back of my head again, it's killing me.
Annah: Ah, serves ya right, skull, ya sure irritate the rest of us enough.
Morte: You know, one day you'll have an itch you can't scratch, and I won't help you. And then, my revenge will be complete.
Morte: Annah, if you don't like me staring, why do you wear that, um, you know, that... that vest?
Annah: It lets my skin breathe, ya eejit.
Morte: Well, sure takes my breath away.
Morte: Fiendling, I have to ask, where did you get that accent?
Annah: Accent? What are ye on about?
Morte: Never mind.
Annah: Donnae be fooled by that Succubus. She's interested in you, cause of the shape of yer neck. It's just right for her to sink her teeth into.
Morte: I can think of worse ways to go.
Annah: If ye need to go somewhere, skull, don't let us keep ye.
Morte: I have a name, you know.
Annah: I've several names for you. None of them fit for polite company.
Morte: You know, fiendling, you'd look a lot better if you dressed up some more. You know, a pair of lace boots with lengthy heels on them to go with those emerald eyes.
Annah: Oh, if I were you, I'd learn to latch yer bone box.
Morte: Well, if I were you, I'd rent a suite and not come out for a month.

Annah and Fall-from-Grace[]

Grace: Annah, were you raised in The Hive?
Annah: Mind yer own business, Succubus, I've nothin' to say to ya.
Grace: Very well, then.
Annah: So... how long will you be travelling with us, Succubus?
Grace: As long as I am permitted, I suppose.
Annah: Well, yer not permitted. I don't trust ye.
Annah: So, uh, when are ya headin' back to yer knockin' shop, Succubus?
Grace: I don't know if I will be going back.
Annah: Well...? It's where ye belong, so maybe ye should!
Annah: Yeh better watch yerself Succubus. You step outta line, start huntin' for souls, yeh'll catch me blades.
Grace: I'll be careful. I assure you I have no such hungers.
Annah: Well, I would take yeh at your word, but since ye succubi are all perfumed, lying harlots, I won't.
Grace: Very well, then.
Annah: I donnae trust that succubus. She's a fiend, so she is! They're all a-like, waiting for yeh tae to drop yer guard before sinking her teeth into yer neck. Don't ye be takin' yer eye off that fat slat, or she'll turn on ya faster than yeh can blink. All fiends are like that, so they are.
Grace: Not all of us, Annah. I would encourage you to be more open minded. You have fiend blood as well and you have many good qualities.
Annah: You just keep away from me. Fact, maybe you should keep away from all of us.
Annah: I've had enough o' you and her. Go on, travel with her then, if ye like her company, I'll have nothin' more to do with ye.
Grace: Annah, jealousy is a two-edged blade. If you kee-
Annah: Jealous? I'm not jealous! I don't even know how to spell jealous. I just don't trust ye... and none of us do!
Annah: How much longer are ye gonna be draggin' yerself with us, Succubus?
Grace: Annah, look, we should-
Annah: Oh don't you, 'Annah look' me, ya black hearted harlot, I'll carve yeh, so I will! Always puttin' on yer airs with yer fine clothes and yer nose up in the air -- I've had enough of yeh! Yeh can burn for all I care!
Grace: Annah, perhaps we should talk.
Annah: I've got nothin' to say to ye, succubus.
Grace: Very well, then.

Annah and Nordom[]

Nordom: Annah, does your tail assist you in maintaining your balance?
Annah: No, it's for scratchin' my back, ye soddin' box!
Nordom: Yes, that is quite logical.
Annah: *Sigh*
Nordom: Annah, is your tail's purpose to indicate your current level of hostility?
Annah: What kinda stupid question's that, ya pikin' sod box?
Nordom: My analysis appears correct: Danger! Danger!

If Morte is also in the party:

Nordom: Annah, is it true that you "dig" Morte?
Annah: *WHAT*?!
Morte: *Whistles innocently*
