Dialogue
First Meeting
Kahraman Reis: Greetings to you. Pay no attention to the disorder my friend, there is a system to the chaos I assure you. Are you in need of something?
Secondary Meeting
Kahraman Reis: I knew you'd be back. Only a matter of time.
Player: 1. I'm Here to trade. 2. Who are you again?
Kahraman Reis: Kahraman Reis is my name, mechanic. Not the only one, but I'm the only one I'd recommend.
Kahraman Reis: There are a lot of people in Harko you don't want to deal with. Some would take the water right out of your mouth.
Kahraman Reis: This place has a way of making people mean.
Player:
1. What can you do for me?
Kahraman Reis: Ah, but I'm sure you mean what we can do for each other. Well, you can find fuel here, but also tools and packs for repair.
Kahraman Reis: I've got access to vehicle schematics too. If any of that interests you, I'm sure we can come to an arrangement.
Player:
1. I'd like to talk about something else.
2. You don't think much of Harko.
2. You don't think much of Harko.
Kahraman Reis: Look around. This isn't a paradise like Chusuk. On Arrakis, every day is a battle, and Harko fights dirty.
Kahraman Reis: You can try to do the right thing but eventually, like a worm, it pulls you down to where you're doing things you never thought you were capable of.
Player: Isn't it a question of character?
Kahraman Reis: It's a question of survival. And the shape it takes depends on the pressure applied.
Kahraman Reis: But listen to me, going on about pressure. I must have that jammed pneumatic stamp on my mind. You know, Einar's asked after it three times this week, can you believe it?
Player:
1. What can you do for me?
2. I'd like to talk about something else.
3. What's that smell?
Kahraman Reis: I assume you mean the semuta, and not me. I am quite particular about my hygiene, my friend.
Player: Are you an addict?
Kahraman Reis: Not myself no, but after mother died, my father found solace in the escape the drug provides.
Kahraman Reis: Now the little that is left of him yearns for nothing else. It is a dismal, blind alley to travel. Mind you keep clear of semuta.
4. Goodbye.
Lore
Kahraman Reis grew up with both his parents, but his family life took a turn for the worse following his mother's death. His father turned to semuta as a means of escape and eventually became consumed by his addiction, leaving little of the man Reis once knew. Having witnessed the destructive effects of the drug firsthand, Reis warns others to stay away from it.
Reis settled in Harko Village, where he works as a mechanic and trader, supplying travelers with fuel, vehicle schematics, and equipment for vehicle repairs. Despite his somewhat disorderly surroundings, he assures customers that there is a method to the apparent chaos. He is less enthusiastic about his place of residence, however, describing Harko as a harsh environment where survival often takes precedence over morality. In his view, the constant pressures of life on Arrakis can drive people to commit acts they would once have considered unthinkable.
During one of his conversations, Reis mentions that Einar Maia has repeatedly asked him about a jammed pneumatic stamp, having brought up the matter three times in a single week.
