Dialogue

Before being defeated:

"It is a little known fact that some Polymock pieces were made using the dark arts. Through the ages, most were destroyed or hidden. I have managed to acquire some of the few remaining pieces known in all of Tyria. So tell me, are you ready to face your darkest fears, <character name>?"

I wish to play you in a game of Polymock.

"You will be removed from your party and taken to a Polymock arena to battle Necromancer Volumandus. Do you wish to proceed?"

Accept: "Yes."

Decline: "No."

After being defeated:

"The Polymock pieces created with the dark arts are truly powerful, but in tournament rules I cannot make use of all of them. Let us play the way the game is meant to be played and see how you fare. You'll need 1 common piece, 1 uncommon piece, and 1 rare piece."

I wish to play you in a game of Polymock.

Quotes

During a Polymock match:

"Ah ha! One step closer to your ultimate demise."

"Ahhh. More blood for my dark master."

"Every piece you lose shows a weakness I can exploit."

"The dark arts have taught me pain! Shall I show you?"

"The darkness will consume your soul...I mean pieces."

"Give up. You are no match for my dark powers."

"Soon you will feel the darkness erode your will to succeed."

"Your time in the light is not long now."

When he loses a Polymock match:

"Aaarrgh! The light. It burns! Leave me. Your shining victory cuts like a serrated blade."

When he wins a Polymock match:

"Welcome to the shadows. Your path leads forward...into the darkness."
