Palace of the Dead "NPC Easter Egg" [SPOILERS]

Roughspun Ruffian? That's Garibald the Fargone.

Encountered two - one was a fem-miqote 'lance waving adventurer' I think?
The other was a highlander hyur, I believe... It was a big guy, thats all I remember - but I don't believe Roe kind of big o_o

I met the Ishgardian Pikeman too. This is what he had to say upon dying(again?)

I'm sad I didn't encounter any of these on mine :(

Though I was amazed at that weird pyramid head esque enemy that punches you with coffins. WITH COFFINS. So badass. XD

Did I somehow fail to get the point while reading NPC dialogues, or did nobody explain the palace's nature at all?

I kind of feel bad for facerolling through every floor now, without really paying attention or giving it any thought.

Right now all the NPCs know is that someone or something very powerful is controlling the dungeon, manipulating it so that it cannot be properly mapped, setting all the traps on every floor, and draining the life out of everyone who enters.

He looked something like this...

I'm starting to think maybe some little details were a bit different before we killed him. His name was 'Frenzied-Something'. I can't remember.
As he fell to the floor, he also said something along the lines of "Ye hear that, lads? The sea is callin' me name!". I'm not sure if that's exactly what he said. But I got really sad when he did.

You first fight him in Sastasha in the Captain's room, named Shallowtail Reaver. He holds the key to the Waverider gates to go onward.

All these dead NPCs are making me really sad, yo. Just give them peace. ;-;

Are you sure? Cause OP said the NPC I encountered was one of the Reavers that you encounter at Swiftperch in an instanced battle in the MSQ. The guy I encountered with my group in Deep Dungeon was not very tall like the one you mentioned. That guy in Captain Madison's room is freakin' HUGE.

To be fair it's best not to judge a character's identity based on the size of the dungeon fight model. After all, the Captain in Sastasha is huge as well, yet even as a MIDLANDER he's larger than a Roegadyn. Then there's Eynzahr Slafyrsyn, you see him in multiple cutscenes, normal Roe height. But then when you fight him in Hullbreaker Hard, he's twice if not three times the size.

Oh yeah, I forgot. Madison is a tall Midlander. I swear to god, these NPCs have no chill in how tall they are. lol
