:"The people in this town are the best... even better when they're having a drink!"
:"Got some travelers staying with us tonight. Your usual spread - merchants, adventurers, traveling weirdos. You know how it goes!"

Ronald is Sun Haven's barkeep, and runs the Tavern with his wife Mari. Ronald and his wife often make bets with each other in place of arguing, seeing it as healthier for their relationship. During the main quest line, if the player chooses to save the former bandit Stephen, they are both kind enough to let him work at the Tavern and provide him a room to live in.
Ronald has long brown dreadlocks and wears a white shirt with a blue vest.
Schedule
Ronald currently has only one schedule that they follow, regardless if it is sunny or rainy.

Hey there, favorite customer! It's Ronald, from the tavern. Sorry if the letter is a little hard to read, I wrote it on the back of one of Edwin's old tabs. I just wanted to do something personal to tell you how much I love you coming around the business and being a good personality. I've never been one for writing letters, plus I'm running out of space on this tab note. Come by more often! -Rona (Ronald ran out of room to finish writing his name, leaving his signature half-finished...) |
Dialogue
Introduction
When speaking to Ronald for the first time in a new game:
|
You must be the new farmer I've heard about. Welcome to our tavern! | |
|---|---|---|
| Player: | Hello, my name is [Player]. | |
|
|
And I'm Ronald. Let me know if you're craving anything to eat or drink, you hear?

General Dialogue
General non-conversational dialogue between Ronald and the player. If there is a seasonal token at the end of the dialogue, it means the player can only see that dialogue during that season.

| Cycle 1 | ||||
| :
|
Welcome in, farmer. Make yourself comfortable. | |||
| Player: | Your tavern is so cozy. There's an inn upstairs too? | |||
| :
|
Yep, upstairs too! Where else are weary travelers supposed to put their feet up? | |||
| Player: | Have you heard any rumors about the monster town? | |||
| :
|
I've heard rumblings from different folk, especially travelers coming from the north. Hard to make sense of rumors, though. | |||
| Player: | What kind of travelers do you get? | |||
| :
|
Folks from all kinds of places. We even get sailors from the Southern Islands sometimes. Sun Haven may have seen better days, but our reputation for trade still draws folks in. | |||
| Player: | What's it like running a tavern? | |||
| :
|
People come in and we take care of them, simple as that. It can be a lot to manage, though. No matter what, our customers always leave full, rested, and happy. | |||
| Player: | That's a lot of ruckus. Sounds like annoying work. -1  Points
| |||
| :
|
Maybe, but I've learned to enjoy the job and all that comes with it. Sounds like you might not understand, though. | |||
| Player: | It must be interesting seeing so many different people. +2 Points
| |||
| :
|
Oh sure, the people make the job. Hearing travelers' stories is a perk of the work. | |||
| Cycle 2 | ||||
| :
|
Pull up a seat, neighbor! Let's have a chat. | |||
| Player: | So what did you do before the tavern? | |||
| :
|
Before this place, I worked construction. Built a lot of houses farther west. It wasn't as fun, but it was good money. | |||
| Player: | Wait, does that mean you built this place? | |||
| :
|
Haha, I wish! I would've done a better job with the seams in the ceiling, I can tell you that much. No, I didn't get to build this place. Mari and I renovated it together, though. | |||
| Player: | Doesn't this place make good money? | |||
| :
|
The tavern pulls in some gold, but we break even more often than not. That's just how it is until business picks up a bit. | |||
| Player: | When did you learn to cook? | |||
| :
|
Actually, I taught myself to cook when I was working construction. I used to make lunch for the whole crew! Eventually I realized I was having way more fun cooking lunch than building houses. The rest is history, as they say. | |||
| Player: | It's lucky you were able to pursue your passion. +2 Points
| |||
| :
|
You're telling me! Who knows where I would be if I'd stuck with construction? | |||
| Player: | Do you think you were helping more people in construction? -1 Points
| |||
| :
|
I help plenty of people right here. I don't need to break my back every day to help out. | |||
| Cycle 3 | ||||
| :
|
I'm already used to seeing you around here, [Player]. Anyway, what can I do for you? | |||
| Player: | What's the best piece of advice you've heard? | |||
| :
|
Best advice ever? Are you in some kind of trouble, [Player]? Heh, I'm just joking. The best advice I ever got was to talk to as many people as I can. Making friends can open a lot of doors for you. | |||
| Player: | I try to talk to everyone I can. +2 Points
| |||
| :
|
A socialite like me, huh? You'll do just fine for yourself here, [Player]. | |||
| Player: | I don't like talking to people much. -1 Points
| |||
| :
|
No? Then that's how we're different. Talking to people is all I do, all day long! | |||
| Player: | Is there anyone in town you don't like? | |||
| :
|
I don't want to talk down on anyone, but since you asked... Peter can be a real handful some nights. He'll cause a ruckus if he gets too happy. | |||
| Player: | Have you had any problems with him? | |||
| :
|
There was one night he broke a stool after he said he could balance it on his head. Yeah, he couldn't. He came back and paid for the damage the next day, so it was fine in the end. | |||
| Player: | That makes sense to me. | |||
| :
|
Ah, so you've spent some time with him already? A man that wears a live crab on his head is bound to be a little rough around the edges, I guess. | |||
