Townsfolk

Pathologic= Unnamed "extra" townsfolk that are found throughout the Town-on-Gorkhon. Interacting with these characters is vital to the success and health of the player, as they offer necessary items and services for survival. They can usually be found wandering the town or inside of houses. Note that should the player's Reputation drop low enough, many townsfolk will deny their services—or attack on sight.

Information
These characters tell you information about the Town or current events, but offer no other services.

Repair
These characters repair items at the cost of money, but cannot be traded with otherwise.

Reputation
Grants varying increases in Reputation, depending on how much money they receive.

Trade
Characters that can be traded with for items or resources. Every item has a "price" that varies with each villager type.

Defense
These characters attack plague victims, rats, and criminals. They cannot be interacted with or spoken to.

Enemies
