    Eve Moonflower has no response to "health" and responds with the general reply to unknown words.

    Area: Yew (Novia_R9_City_Yew) Loc: (-69.535, 34.286, -8.974) DBG: Tm92aWFfUjlfQ2l0eV9ZZXd8fCgtNjkuNTM1LCAzNC4yODYsIC04Ljk3NCl8KDAsIDAuNTE3LCAwLCAwLjg1Nil8MjU2OC41MTN8MTQuMzgxN3wxLjkxNjExMw==


    Cornelius Pfeifer
    Before talking to him it only shows "Butcher" above him. When initiaing a conversation that changes immediately to Cornelius Pfeifer, even when not yet having asked his name.

    Innkeeper / Derek Veritas
    First only innkeeper, then immediately Derek Verita without asking for name and without him actually telling his name before being asked.

    I'll look over her responses. There are a handful of responses we like every NPC (with a few exceptions) to have and "health" is one of them. Issue #71171

    Every NPC that has a special trade window automatically unlocks their name for you. This includes merchants, bankers, trainers, vendors, etc. I kind of wish we never introduced this feature in the first place, at least not without also having a mandate that NPCs introduce themselves in their first response to justify the name unlocking, but "it is what it is." We have so many NPCs that don't introduce themselves that I'm not going to chase down all of them to change their introductions, but when I think of it I do try to have these types of NPCs introduce themselves.
