Salvanos di Riyos is a philandring Bard watching the Copper Coronet clientele, with a amused smile and a lecherous eye for the female form.

Err... yes. Hello. My name be Salvanas... you would not have any sensuously beautiful female companions I might become familiar with, hmmm?

— To males, randomly

Gameplay[]

If spoken to by a party member, Salvanas will react with very individual lines to various female party members – who also have unique reactions based on the person. If talked to by Gorion's Ward, he will leave the Coronet after the conversation.

There is a particularly rare and amusing interaction with Salvanas if Edwina engages in conversation with the bard. Suggest saving your game before doing so.

Dialogue[]

• Female Gorion's Ward[]

Ahhh... hello, my dear lady. You do look so... delicious... that the mere thought of wrapping my tongue around you enflames my mind with feelings of desire...
—Salvanas

If a female Gorion's Ward talks to him, he will express his desire for her, in which case she may either insult him or offer to rent a room at the Coronet – just now. Either way, he will leave.

Note: This same conversation would also happen for any other potential female companion, not listed below.

• Aerie[]

Hello, my pretty dove. I am Salvanas... and I am so pleased that my gaze has chanced to fall upon you...
—Salvanas

If Aerie talks to him, she will feel uneasy for a moment before stating that Quayle has warned her to stay away from guys like Salvanas, and then brush him aside.

You'll have a magic missile or two within you pretty soon! Now stop all this nonsense and go away.
—Aerie

• Edwina[]

Ahhh... I have not seen you here before, lovely creature. How do you do?
—Salvanas

If Edwina talks to him, she he will both be annoyed and flatted by what Salvanas says. In the end, it will result in Edwin/a casting a Magic Missile on him, causing hostilities. It won't cause the whole tavern to go hostile, as Salvanas had it coming for commenting on Edwina's Adams Apple.

Note: Edwin/a can be given order to do something else than casting the spell, but any subsequent dialogue will trigger a new attempt.
GAAAAAHHHH! (Pig!) NOW YOU DIE!
—Edwina

• Hexxat[]

I've a weakness for dusky skin, darling. Chult is a hot place, and its daughters carry that heat in their veins.
—Salvanas

If Hexxat talks to him, he will confess his preference for Chultan beauty over her denials – until she comments on drinking his blood. This brings about an end to the discussion.

I can kill much more than that. Would you like to see?
—Hexxat

• Jaheira[]

Ah, I sense you have an earthy wisdom about you, my sweet elf. I find that most sensual.
—Salvanas

If Jaheira talks to him, Salvanas will fall for her but Jaheira will brush him aside.

The first thing of sense you have said. Now stay out of my way.
—Jaheira

• Mazzy[]

Ah, my little chestnut, we meet again!
—Salvanas

If Mazzy talks to him, it becomes obvious that this is not their first encounter. However, she's not pleased to see him again or by the way he's naming her and warns him "for the last time" to leave her alone.

*sigh* If you want to introduce your aches to cruel and punishing, I can arrange that. Now, for the last time, GO AWAY!
—Mazzy

• Nalia[]

Why, hello there, my sweet one. Come here often?
—Salvanas

If Nalia talks to him, she will interrupt his flattering by stating that she already knows him – after all, she hangs up in the Coronet – and his charms won't work on her.

Keep it up and it'll be more than my words that wound you, silly man.
—Nalia

• Neera[]

What sweet treat do we have here, then?
—Salvanas

If Neera talks to him, she seems confused whom he might be speaking about. He admits that he'd be entranced by her eyes, lips … and hair. Neera finally tells him to keep his hands to himself.

I guess there are worse things to have scuzzy guys staring at. But keep your hands to yourself, pal!
—Neera

• Viconia[]

Hmmmm. I always love a dark, brooding woman. I sense that you have a sensuous nature, my elven beauty...
—Salvanas

If Viconia talks to him, he will also fall for her due to her dark drow appearance. After even admitting he'd be willing to die to partake of her swarthy lust, she will be tempted for a short time, but finally brush him aside.

Hmm... suddenly I am tempted. But no. Go away, male.
—Viconia
