I met this girl in the Bazaar who knew Jade, then found her dead in the ocean at the bottom of a cliff?

So I was swimming around the far eastern town in the slums, the one on the beach that you clear the infected from when you're doing the Pact with Rais. I find this dead body of this girl who I recognized by her outfit and face as a "blue arrow" NPC that I'd met in the Bazaar (where Volcan has his running challenges) earlier in my playthrough.


She had said at the time that she was a huge fan of Jade and had traveled to see her, she was in complete awe that Crane was on a first name basis with Jade, and was just gushing about it.
Does anyone know if this is supposed to happen? Why would she arrive here and be gushing about Jade, then not even make it to the tower, instead traveling east and committing suicide by jumping off a cliff? This is one of the strangest "stories" I've been told by a game. did I miss a middle step where I see her again after the bazaar? Getting Dark Souls vibes. I couldn't loot anything from her at all or anything like that. She was just there, unresponsive and ragdolled.

She's been there for really long time now. This is when I saw her first time,

No idea what happened to her, how or why she decided to suicide, was it really a suicide? maybe somebody just forced her to do that, you can find her clothes and stuff if you go up to the area she jumped from.

Although Harran is a place not everybody can handle, maybe it was just too much for her.

That's unrelated, just happened to be the side quest I had tracked at the time. I never saw this girl in that town.

I've done this quest several times, though I don't remember much from it, anything related to this girl you can explain?

Oh wow, I didn't even try to go up to the top, that outfit is the outfit she was wearing when I met her first so it didn't seem like she took anything off. That would be a good assumption, though. When you first meet her in the bazaar she talks like an airheaded fangirl of Jade's, like she only came to Harran to find Jade, and probably wasn't prepared for what she ran into. Probably couldn't make it to the tower, and so ended her life instead. I'm not sure though.

Hopefully some other people have seen her elsewhere. So that body remains there forever?

Yeah, every time I go to that place she's always there. I highly doubt she'll ever disappear. You can even push her body and drag it wherever you want, though I'm not sure if it'll disappear after certain distance, if it does it'll probably go back to its spawn.

That's really interesting. I hope I'll play this game long enough, but if I ever go into NG+ I'm going to check at the top of that cliff if the clothes are there before her body is there, that would add a little bit to the story, and see if I can find her anywhere else. Or hopefully someone else will comment and shed light, but I don't think anyone pays that much attention to this kind of stuff in this game except me, lmao.

maybe u think too much . i am playing the game again at normal level. when i finished main story "air drop",and about to start the main story "Pact with Rais", i wandered at the eastern part of slum . At that place , the dead body has been there already.

I do not think it is the same character but rather reusing the same body. it does happen a lot in video games.

I guess I was expecting Techland to be a bit above that since every character that had talked directly to me before had a unique outfit and face that I hadn't seen re used. Then again this character never had a name, so I guess that's a good enough excuse to reuse her model and outfit elsewhere. That's kinda sad for me. I'm always really into finding little secrets or stories off the beaten path meant for players with a bit more interest in that kinda stuff. Oh well.

I could be wrong though. I personally think it is a reused body cuz it is not like a main path kinda thing, almost like an easter egg so I can see how they might have reused a body. Or maybe it is the same character. I myself do not know.

Your link just sends me back to this post. But yeah, I suppose it's most likely that I'm just trying to connect the dots where it was instead just reuse of assets. I'm just extremely into games that reward this kind of thinking like Dark Souls and Metal Gear Solid where every single tiny detail is put there very deliberately even if 90% of people won't see it or even think about it in passing.

I know better than to hold Techland to that, so oh well.

It's probably not the same person. It's just a reused model.

Yeah, that's the idea I'm gonna accept now. For some reason I didn't think about that and immediately assumed some crazy easter egg continuity. Got ahead of myself sadly );

dying light does have some good easter eggs though so i don't blame you. and when I first saw the body, I thought of the same thing.

The Cliff Jumper is an easter egg, along with her clothes at the top of the cliff, but I don't believe she is/was related to the Jade fan.
