What's going on with Absinthe (Aljernon's assistant) ?

[inside]

I played multiple times through the campaign and never could talk to her about anything else than the line you get after the incident with her eyes.
Doesn't matter if I resist with willpower or not.

After the attack on the Kreuzbasar, Aljernon says that he has send her away on an errant, but she is still standing behind the counter.

I think, this might be a glitch and her story doesn't update.

Has anyone gotten more out of her than the "I have work to do" line?

Not another storyline trigger bug, those are one of the worst kind for an rpg.

I'm not sure if it is a bug, but it's not game breaking anyway. She makes an appearace later (after the final mission).
I don't know, if Absinthe is a canon character with much lore attached to her, but I had the impression that this is the case.

*SPOILER*




She appears to be some sort of oracle.

[inside]

I haven't read any Shadowrun ficition for at least 10 years, so, if she is an important character I do not know her.

I got that dialogue after the last mission, when they are about to leave for Amazonia, but I have the feeling there is something missing before that.
You can talk with Aljernon about her, but never with her directly. Iirc, the Vision is also part of a dialogue with Aljernon and not with her.

It is just bugging me that there might be lore to be discovered and I just can't unlock it. ;)

My bet is more on a free spirit.

With you on this. Dragons are simply too rare, also not sort of people to help anybody at the shop.

Apart from Dunkelzahn the Big D all other dragons are more or less jerks.

Not really, there are several nice ones out there.
Hestaby, Perianwyr, Schwarzkopf, Damon (if he really is a dragon), Marcupo and others.

some lady ignores him in game and he thinks it's bug... that's something.

Well, it's more like one dude in a game tells me the lady I just walked by is not there. ;)

[Infinite Probability]

Yeha shes bugged, when I got to right before APEX mission, she was there but he said she was sent away in dialog. When I got back from the APEX mission she was gone. Other stuff bothers me, is theres no dialog about that troll after the battle, nor the crazy lady up north. Neither was there any update to Alexander, who clearly could have helped out the center with his rifle skills. There are some things not explained, which need an update/fix.

[just.dont.do.it]

Yep, there's no update for Kreuzbazar when you run APEX Rising -- all the dialogues are absolutely the same as before (i.e. immediately after the attack).
Not sure if it's a bug or devs just got lazy at this point.

[twincast]

All the above, of course, but there's one more minor thing that bothers me: All the other characters at the Kreuzbasar you (can) interact with at least a couple of times, but that street kid David who took the news about Monika's death the worst just runs off without me ever getting the chance to take up Monika's role as kiez mother with him like I did with all the other troubled NPC's. :/

[Dear Bluey]

Although he never seems to say anything else, Twincast, you get to see his little tent ruined after the attack on the Kreuzbasar. For some reason, that pleased me. I'm a horrid person sometimes.
