Dave

Dave's Function as a Character
Dave is arguably the most important character in this game. He sells the player items he finds and sometimes provides tidbits of wisdom and other times just chats for a while.

Daves Origin Story
Dave wasn't always a shopkeeper! He was raised by Evon and Helmuth Vigunte in a now destroyed village called Caelkirk. He was the fifth eldest child out of thirteen children. His siblings included seven sisters: Tirsa, Avona, Tarnih, Nue, Jorel, Sanatha, and Reloh, and five brothers: Ebolan, Tandit, Urderth, Febin, and Gindadd. As a child he always looked up to his eldest brother Ebolan and was closet with his sister Jorel. His mother, Evon, died when Dave was 12 from a spider attack. Witnessing his mother's death spawned Dave's hate of spiders and this traumatic experience caused him to turn to alcohol. As the fifth eldest child he had to take care of his eight younger siblings. Unfortunately, Dave's younger sister Jorel died under Dave's watch and his dad, Helmuth kicked him out of the village, evidently two weeks before it was destroyed, killing the rest of his family. Now Dave is a drunk, lonely shopkeeper who speaks in a slightly southern drawl about "better times".
