Find Your Heraldic Bird Walkthrough

Background

Starting on Day 2, you can meet a working class woman in front of the Doomed Commercial Area (#1). If you insist that her husband is missing — or her daughters, or her cockatoo — then she’ll call you a cockatoo. If you ask her about the birds, then you’ll trigger this task.

Walkthrough

The working class woman will suggest that you to look up cockatoos in the bookstore in the Doomed Commercial Area. Inside, if you ask Plaisance about cockatoos, then she’ll direct you to the upper level of the shop, where you’ll find the book From A to Zrieek! A Guide to Cockatoos. It’ll cost you 3.99 real to buy it, or you can steal it by passing an Interfacing check.

When you read the book, you’ll be allowed to choose a cockatoo. This will give you a point for one of the four copotypes, which are associated with a thought (you’ll need to gain four points in a copotype to unlock its thought). This is summarized in the table below:

Regardless of your choice, you’ll earn 10 xp for completing the task.

Note: You’re not limited to one copotype. You can unlock all four copotype thoughts if you spread your dialogue around.
