==Dialogue==
;Pre-Searing
: ''"A soldier could get a nasty sunburn under this sun."''
: ''"Didn't your momma ever teach you not to talk to strangers?"''
: ''"Do I look like a tour guide?"''
: ''"Do you think the stories of [[King Doric]] are true?"''
: ''"Do you think this [[armor]] makes me look fat?"''
: ''"Doesn't the Wall look beautiful today?"''
: ''"Don't let my brother catch you looking at me like that."''
: ''"Don't touch me! I'm super important."''
: ''"Don't touch me. I said don't touch me."''
: ''"Duty calls."''
: ''"For [[Ascalon]]!"''
: ''"Go away before I show you the pointy end of my sword."''
: ''"Good day for a nap under a tree."''
: ''"Have you ever considered becoming a nun?"''
: ''"Have you heard the joke about the cookie? Aw, it's crummy."''
: ''"Haven't heard from those [[Krytan|Krytans]] lately."''
: ''"How you doin'?"''
: ''"I could sure go for an ale."''
: ''"I don't have time for you right now. I'm guarding something very important."''
: ''"I hear [[Ascalon's Chosen]] are out fighting another [[Orr|Orrian]] [[guild]] today."''
: ''"I know I'm irresistible, but that doesn't mean you can just touch me whenever you want."''
: ''"I sure am hungry."''
: ''"I was the only one there, and I didn't see nothin'."''
: ''"I'd talk to you, but then I'd have to talk to you."''
: ''"If there's a better place on all of [[Tyria]], then I've never seen it."''
: ''"It's a beautiful day in Ascalon, eh?"''
: ''"Keep it to yourself."''
: ''"Looks like it's going to rain."''
: ''"Maybe you should lay off the roasted chicken."''
: ''"Not much for a soldier to do now that the [[Charr]] have been taken care of."''
: ''"Oh, my aching feet."''
: ''"One little mistake! Now I'm stuck on guard duty."''
: ''"Pardon me, citizen, but I have very important work to do."''
: ''"Read any good books lately?"''
: ''"Seems quiet today."''
: ''"The butterflies are out today."''
: ''"Who, me?"''
: ''"Wonder what's going on north of the Wall."''
: ''"You know what I could go for right now? A big fat orange."''
: ''"You remind me a little of an alligator."''

;Ascalon City
: ''"A cold mug of ale sure sounds good right about now."''
: ''"Arggh, this armor chafes me so!"''
: ''"Beat it, will ya? I'm not in the mood for talking."''
: ''"Can't you see I'm busy right now?"''
: ''"Didn't your momma ever teach you not to talk to strangers?"''
: ''"Do I look like a tour guide?"''
: ''"Do you always talk to strangers?"''
: ''"Do you think this armor makes me look fat?"''
: ''"Good to see you're out doing your part. May [[Dwayna]] bless you and keep you safe."''
: ''"Killed eight [[Charr]] today. If I get three more, I beat [[Horace]]'s record."''
: ''"I can still hear the screams of the dying. It's been two years, and I still can't get them out of my head."''
: ''"I found a baby [[devourer]] in my boot this morning. Good thing I always check for 'em..."''
: ''"I got a letter from my son today. That always lifts my spirits."''
: ''"I haven't been home in four months. I wonder how my family is getting on."''
: ''"I like that young [[Prince Rurik]]. He's got his head on straight, if you ask me."''
: ''"I miss the poppies. My wife always kept a vase of them on the table."''
: ''"I need a bath. I'm really starting to stink."''
: ''"I signed up for the army just two weeks before [[the Searing]]. Bad timing, I guess."''
: ''"I used to be a musician before the Searing. Played for the [[King Adelbern|king]] a few times, even."''
: ''"I worry about my mother's welfare. If something happened to me, there'd be no one left to care for her. "''
: ''"I'm hoping to go on leave in a few days, so don't stir up any trouble."''
: ''"I'm parched. I need to go find some more water."''
: ''"I've got a hankering for some fresh meat."''
: ''"I've really have to do something about this chafing."''
: ''"It's funny the things you remember. I remember what my wife and daughter were wearing that last day..."''
: ''"Look at this place. Nothing but dirt, ruins, and skeletons."''
: ''"Lots of time out here to sit and reflect on life."''
: ''"Mind your own business."''
: ''"My brother is a [[Ranger]]. Spends his time tramping through the woods with his cat."''
: ''"Not much of a view out here, is there?"''
: ''"Oh my aching tooth. Why didn't I go see a healer before it got this bad?"''
: ''"Sure wish this rash would heal. It's awfully hard to scratch when you're wearing full armor."''
: ''"The rations out here taste like cardboard, but at least it keeps my waistline trim."''
: ''"There was never a more beautiful place than Ascalon. Hard to believe looking at this wasteland, isn't it?"''
: ''"Things have been quiet lately. Too quite, if you ask me."''
: ''"Unless you're here to relieve me, get lost. I've got work to do."''
: ''"Wallace says Devourer blood cures baldness. You reckon that's true?"''
: ''"Wallace says eating [[moa bird]] gizzards makes you virile. You ever heard that?"''
: ''"Wallace says [[skale]] saliva cures foot fungus. I think I might try it out."''
: ''"Watch out for devourers. This place is crawling with 'em."''
: ''"Watch yourself. I don't want to have to come rescue your worthless hide if you get into trouble."''
: ''"What I wouldn't give for a good night's rest in a soft bed."''
: ''"What I wouldn't give to see just one of our beautiful Ascalon sunflowers growing out of these ruins."''
: ''"You done much traveling? I've always wanted to travel."''

;Old Ascalon
: ''"My duty is to guard this gate. That's what I intend to do."''
: ''"No one gets into Ascalon City without my say so."''
: ''"This gate has nothing to fear while I'm on guard."''

==Trivia==
* The quote "Don't touch me! I'm super important." is one of the random lines of the nobleman voice soundset in the Baldur's Gate game series.
* The quote "How you doin'?" could be a reference to the catch-phrase of Joey Tribianni, a character on the popular show "Friends".
