Outcast Hints
Finding Talans
In Outcast there are two different types of Talans. There are the character Talans and the non-character Talans. A character Talan has a name and you will be able to GREET them when you first meet them. A non-character Talan does not have a name. Non-character Talans usually just wander about.
When looking for character Talans, you can ask any non-character Talan and they will point you in the right direction. When you get closer to the character Talan you are looking for, a non-character Talan will say "It is that Talan there."
