Story

Dig

The Oreman is first seen at the campfire on the Surface, getting impatient with the Meleeist and her unsuccessful attempts at lighting a fire. Once the camp is started, he can be seen walking around or sitting by fire.

He can also be met randomly in a side-room down the Well. He appears extenuated by his dig and, before going back up, chooses to give Shovel Knight an item, a Relic, or a Health or Magic Upgrade.

Dig Starting the camp with the Meleeist "Oreman: Y'need to bash that rock faster, lass. It takes airflow, so blow on it, like this! Pffffff. Give me a turn already!" After starting the campfire with the Meleeist "Meleeist: There! I've done it! And no thanks to you, bossing me around like that. You couldn't light it, when you tried!" "Oreman: Yeah, yeah... 'twould be nothing, if I'd've had my own proper tools." Wandering the campsite "Oreman: Heard the rumors about that ancient Relic? They say it destroys machines. If I had that, I'd go straight for the Omega Saw, that's for sure." Sitting alone by the campfire "Oreman: You never know where secrets lie. Just to be sure, I like to smack anything suspicious, in case it's hidin' anything." Sitting by the campfire with the Clawed Miner "Oreman: Grueling work hours, sweltering heat, and the soot can never truly be washed off. Mining is great!" Sitting by the campfire with a red Bag Fellow "Oreman: I tried digging through some of the caved-in walls on the side of the well. Nothin' doin'. You'd need a mighty bomb to crack 'em." Sitting by the campfire with the Prospector, the Clawed Miner and the Lamp Lighter "Oreman: I've always wondered how Hoofman became the keeper of all those Relic Doors. And why do they look like him?" Talked to in a side-room "Oreman: Bad luck, bad tools. I'm done for today, this is as far as I go. Here, y'wanna take this?" Talked to again "Oreman: Why do the fates conspire against me? I've always been so smart, and talented..."
