―Matilde Petit

Matilde Petit is a Breton noblewoman in the Whodunit? quest. She is the first of whom the Hero meets and speaks to, she will try to befriend them in hopes of increasing her chances of walking away with something.

Interactions

Whodunit?

As Matilde Petit is the first person who is encountered in the quest, she claims that she an aristocrat. Her opinions of everyone else in the house is that she likes Primo Antonius, Neville and the Hero, depending on disposition. She dislikes Nels the Naughty and Dovesi Dran

Despite the warnings of not giving away that they are there to kill them, if she is told that the Hero is an assassin she will think its a joke and her Disposition will boost to 100.

She offers the Hero to join an alliance with her and share the treasure 50/50. The Hero can tell her to go down to the basement to search for the treasure, which is a good place to kill her unseen.

Dialogue

In Summitmist Manor: "The sixth guest has finally arrived! Well it's about time! Do you know how long we've been waiting? It seems like an age! Whoever invited us here must at least know us, don't you think? In any event, we're all stuck here together, so we might as well get aquainted. The rest of us have already traded instructions. I'm Matilde Petit. The others are Nels the Naughty, Neville, Dovesi Dran and Primo Antonius. Now, who might you be? Please, tell us a little bit about yourself." I am an assassin, hired to kill you. "Hahaha! Oh, you're a funny one! Good, I'm glad one of us has a sense of humor about all of this. It will make our time here that much enjoyable." My baby is sick, and we are so poor. "Oh you poor dear! Well, this does make things difficult for me. I want to find the gold as much as anyone, but you need it so much more than I do." [Say nothing.] "Yes, well... Anway... Now that we're all here, I guess we can start looking. I'd wish you good luck, but I wouldn't really mean it." When approached again: "Have you spoken to the other guests yet? I suggest you get to know everyone. Who knows how long we'll be stuck in this house together?" Dovesi Dran "The little Dark Elf? She seems a nice enough girl. But to be perfectly honest, I've never trusted their kind." Matilde Petit "That's right. It's a Breton name. I'll have you know the Petits are one of High Rock's oldest and most respected noble families." Nels the Naughty "He's a Nord. Mead-swilling barbarians, all of them." Neville "From what I gathered, he's a retired soldier. He's been all across the Empire fighting in various campaigns. Goodness, he's handsome...." Primo Antonius "He's young, well-educated and obviously full of himself. Not much different than any young nobleman, really." After the first kill is made: "Oh this is just horrible! Who could do such a thing? Who could kill a defenseless person in cold blood? Greed truly brings out the worst in people." Dovesi Dran "If you ask me, the Dark Elf is our killer. They're an evil and vengeful people, all of them." Matilde Petit "That's right. It's a Breton name. I'll have you know the Petits are one of High Rock's oldest and most respected noble families." Nels the Naughty "He's an obnoxious drunkard, I know, but I'm not sure if I see him as the murdering type." Neville "Neville used to be a soldier. I'm sticking close to him. He makes me feel safe." Primo Antonius "Primo is a young man of refinement. This murder must be quite a shock for him." After the second kill is made: Dovesi Dran "Isn't it obvious? Two of us has been murdered in cold blood, and that little tramp hasn't batted an eyelash. You figure it out." Matilde Petit "That's right. It's a Breton name. I'll have you know the Petits are one of High Rock's oldest and most respected noble families." Nels the Naughty "Well, the list of suspects is certainly getting smaller. I didn't think the swine had it in him, but now I'm not so sure." Neville "I just don't know what to think anymore, or who to trust. Neville seems like such a decent man, but how can I know for sure?" Primo Antonius "The poor lad is handling all of this better than I expected. It's a testament to his noble bearing, I'm sure." After the third kill is made: "Gasp! Oh... oh I'm sorry. I... my nerves. I just want to get out of here. Three people have been murdered! I'm so very frightened!" Dovesi Dran "I knew it! It's her! That Dark Elf tramp killed them all! We've got to get out of this place!" Matilde Petit "That's right. It's a Breton name. I'll have you know the Petits are one of High Rock's oldest and most respected noble families." Nels the Naughty "You and Nels... both still alive. One of you is a cold-blooded killer! I... I never did trust the Nord...." Neville "I'm no murderer, so that means it's either you or Neville. Just stay away from me! I don't trust either one of you!" Primo Antonius "There are only three of us left. All those people... dead. And the killer had to be either Primo... or you!" After the fourth kill is made: "Aggh! They're dead! All of them, dead! Why? What's going on here? We need to get out of this place!" Death related dialogue: Dovesi Dran "Yes, the poor girl is dead. What a shame. Well, I guess she won't be finding the gold, hmm? Hehehehehe." Nels the Naughty "All right, so I didn't care much for the man. That doesn't mean I wanted him dead." Neville "I... I can't believe he's dead. Such a strong, handsome man..." Primo Antonius "He was so young... so innocent. That boy was destined for greatness. Who could have done such a thing?"

So why don't we both just stay out of each other's way, and be done with it." Dovesi Dran "What about her? She's a Dark Elf, and that's bad enough. I may even like her less than you, if that's possible." Matilde Petit "That's right. It's a Breton name. I'll have you know the Petits are one of High Rock's oldest and most respected noble families." Nels the Naughty "He reminds me of you. Uncultured, unwashed and generally uninteresting." Neville "Why do you care? He seems like a very respectable person. That's more than I can say for you." Primo Antonius "That young man has more nobility in his pinky finger than you have in your entire body, you uncultured swine." After the first kill is made: "What do you want from me? For all I know, you could be the killer!" Dovesi Dran "Someone has been brutally murdered. Yet you want to question me about that little Dark Elf tramp? Go away, you fool." Matilde Petit "That's right. It's a Breton name. I'll have you know the Petits are one of High Rock's oldest and most respected noble families." Nels the Naughty "Even if I do think Nels is the killer. I wouldn't share my thoughts with the likes of you." Neville "What, you don't think Neville is the killer, do you? That's absurd! He's a gentleman and a retired soldier, not a murderer!" Primo Antonius "Someone turns up dead and you have nothing better to do than pester me about that fine young man? How truly pathetic you are." After the second kill is made: "What do you want from me? For all I know, you could be the killer!" Dovesi Dran "She's a Dark Elf and a harlot, and for all I know she's a murderer too! Now leave me be, you cretin!" Matilde Petit "That's right. It's a Breton name. I'll have you know the Petits are one of High Rock's oldest and most respected noble families." Nels the Naughty "Why are you trying to turn me against the Nord? Maybe you did, and you're just trying to cover your tracks!" Neville "You're trying to turn me against him, aren't you? Just leave me alone!" Primo Antonius "Two people lie dead, and all you can do is question me about that sweet boy? I'm beginning to think something is seriously wrong with you." After the third kill is made: "Gasp! Oh... oh, it's you. What do you want? Why are you looking at me that way?" Dovesi Dran "You bloody half-wit! Do I have to spell it out for you? She's a killer! A murderer!" Matilde Petit "That's right. It's a Breton name. I'll have you know the Petits are one of High Rock's oldest and most respected noble families." Nels the Naughty "My feelings about the Nord are my own business! Leave me be!" Neville "You want me to mistrust him, don't you! You want to turn me against him! Maybe... maybe you're the murderer!" Primo Antonius "You... you're trying to turn me against that sweet boy. Make me think he's the murderer! Get away from me, you fiend!" After the fourth kill is made: "Aggh! They're dead! All dead! And you... you're the only one left. It's you! Oh, gracious, no! Stay away from me!" Death related dialogue: Dovesi Dran "So she's dead. What do you want from me? Flower? A eulogy? I think not." Nels the Naughty "He was a buffoon, but I didn't wish him dead, you cold-hearted villain!" Neville "He's dead, and one of you killed him! I hate you all!" Primo Antonius "Leave me alone, you ghoul! Can't you see I'm mourning for that poor, sweet boy?"

Now that we're all here, I guess we can start looking. I'd wish you good luck, but I wouldn't really mean it." If approached again: "Hello, dear! Listen, I've been thinking. Why don't we form a kind of alliance? If either one of us finds the chest of gold, we split it, 50/50. With the two of us working together, we're sure to find the chest before anyone else. What do you say? Do you want to team up?" An alliance sounds...perfect. "Oh, wonderful! This is going to be such fun! So, any ideas where we should begin searching first?" Try searching down in the basement. "Ooh, good idea! Maybe the chest is hidden under the floorboards! All right, I'll head down there and start looking." Ah... Not really. Search anywhere. "All right, that sounds like a fine idea! Oh, I just know you and I are going to find that gold! I have a sense about these things, you know." [Say nothing.] "Ummm... Okay, then... I guess I'll try looking down in the basement. Maybe you could search upstairs or something, hmm?" I think I'll work by myself for now. "All right, dearie. I understand. If you change your mind, just let me know." If approached again after making an alliance: "Oh, hello sweetie. So, no luck yet in finding the gold, I gather? I've been looking as well, but haven't found so much as a clue." Dovesi Dran "Personally, I think she's a little floozy. She's been eyeing young Primo Antonius, probably smells his wealth." Matilde Petit "That's right. It's a Breton name. I'll have you know the Petits are one of High Rock's oldest and most respected noble families." Nels the Naughty "Oh, that man disgusts me! I find his entire manner offensive. Why, just before you got here he told the most off-color joke about an Argonian maid." Neville "Well, if I can be perfectly honest with you, I find Neville quite attractive. Redguards are so... exotic. Don't you think?" Primo Antonius "It's obvious that young Primo comes from wealth. A chest full of gold would be mere spending change for him." After the first kill is made: "Please, sweetie, stay close to me. The killer might strike again, whoever he... or she... is." Dovesi Dran "That little tramp is as guilty as sin, you hear me? She's the killer. And if we don't keep our eyes on her she'll do it again!" Matilde Petit "That's right. It's a Breton name. I'll have you know the Petits are one of High Rock's oldest and most respected noble families." Nels the Naughty "You think Nels might be the killer? He plays the buffoon, but it could all be an act. He is a Nord, and they're such savage, uncivilised people." Neville "Do... do you think he could have done it? I mean, he is a retired soldier. He's killed before. Oh, dear, this can't be happening!" Primo Antonius "I worry about the boy. What if the killer is after money? Primo is quite wealthy. He could be the next victim!" "You'd be smart to stick with the rest of the group. It's just not safe to go wander off alone with a killer on the loose." After the second kill is made: Dovesi Dran "Don't trust her, sweetie. Not a thing she says. If she tries to get you alone anywhere, get away as fast as you can! She's a cold-blooded killer!" Matilde Petit "That's right. It's a Breton name. I'll have you know the Petits are one of High Rock's oldest and most respected noble families." Nels the Naughty "Two people dead, yet Nels still lives? I don't think that's a coincidence. Nords are savages, born to kill. I just know he did it!" Neville "Do... do you think he could have done it? I mean, he is a retired soldier. He's killed before. Oh, dear, this can't be happening! Primo Antonius "If I may confide in you, dear friend. I'm very worried about the poor boy. The trauma of murders... it could scar him for life! He deserves better." After the third kill is made: "Gasp! Oh, thank goodness it's you, sweetie! Please, don't wander too far away. I feel safe with you." Dovesi Dran "It's up to us now, don't you see? Dovesi did it! She murdered everyone! And now she wants to murder us too! We have to get her first!" Matilde Petit "That's right. It's a Breton name. I'll have you know the Petits are one of High Rock's oldest and most respected noble families." Nels the Naughty "Oh please! Save me! Save me from that savage! He'll kill me and then feast on my flesh! That's what Nords do! Please, I don't want to die!" Neville "I know you're no killer. That means it's Neville! Oh, I'm so frightened! Please protect me from him!" Primo Antonius "Oh, my heavens! Primo must be the killer! I... I never though it could be him. Please... please! You've got to protect me from him!" After the fourth kill is made: "We've got to get out of here! You understand me? We're the only ones left! We need to find a way out of this house! Come on!" Death related dialogue: Dovesi Dran "One less Dark Elf in the world. And now there's one less person to find the gold, as well. It's a good day, don't you think?" Nels the Naughty "So, Nels is dead. I don't condone murder, of course, but I can't say he'll be missed. As a rule, I find Nord rather... vulgar." Neville "Why would one of us kill Neville? What if they try to get the rest of us? You'll protect me, won't you? Primo Antonius "I just can't believe he's dead. He was like a young, beautiful prince. I hope whoever did this can live with themselves."
