Townspeople
For Zelda II The Adventure of Link on the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES).
The people in the streets. Each kind of townsperson is drawn the same in every town, with a line of its own there.
From the official guides
The people in the town will listen to Link's story and give various answers. There are all types of people. Some will give Link important hints and some will ask favors.
The townspeople listen to Link and answer all kinds of things. Some of them give important hints, and some ask Link for favors.
Be observant and learn from the people you meet. Townspeople give clues that help Link on his journey, and they also teach special techniques and magical wonders that are vital to his success. For example, a Knight in Mido teaches the Downthrust technique, and someone in Darunia teaches the Upthrust.
In the town, Link approaches and speaks with many people (get close and press B). Some know nothing, but others help with guidance and words of wisdom.
The people of the towns give Link all kinds of information. Go around and listen to what everyone has to say.
