I've been focusing on Heather for the henchmen dialog and am pretty happy with what I've come up with. There's the usual "how's it going" sort of dialog, but I've also added in a remembrance system. Essentially it allows the player to experience flashbacks and backstory. As a side effect the henchmen get boosts to skills as they remember things.

I finished my first one, which took awhile to script properly. Still, I'm happy with the way things are going and will likely introduce similar things for Daniel, the second main companion. It takes awhile to put each together, but I think the results are worth the effort.

Update: Danmar continues to do some very cool work with his lighthouse. It's been fun hearing his ideas for a side quest and seeing what sort of things he comes up with.
