Everyone wants something. Everybody who comes in here wants something more. What do you want? What do you need?
These questions are just a prelude to the real question: Who are you? Hihihi. Like that, ferenji <puff puff>?
I heard it once in a movie, one of your ancient movies. So, who are you?

Some characters receive more points see below.
