Bjorn
Bjorn is a bear construction worker and frequent patron of Garius's bar in the visual novel GameOver. In addition to trying to get you drunk whenever possible to potentially then lead to more intimate hijinks, he also serves as a source of rumors and hints about the setting and other characters. He has two Bad Ends to discover.
Questlines
More than willing to take advantage of the player, drinking with Bjorn when having high lust results in him getting more and more handsy the more he is interacted with.[1] After drinking with him a few times[2] and having brought up the topic to the bear while he was on break at work,[3] an alternative outcome than the usual can be done if a certain gustatory potion of Azlos' is unlocked.[4] Once Bjorn has been informed about your potential capacity for children,[5] he may take it upon himself to get a little friskier with you the next time you drink with him.[6] He'll also have an additional public friskiness in the bar[7] once you've done public things elsewhere[8] and Vandeel might even join in if you've been friendly with him before.[9]
If the player has already succumbed to Bjorn's influence by running out of their own well-being,[10] they can then find Bjorn while he's at work by the East Gate. You won't have to do much convincing to have him spend his break time with you hidden in an inconspicuous corner.[8] And any interest in certain smells will open other interactions with him,[11] along with any interest in alternative fluids.[12] He'll have heard about you getting freaky with Jar and his special nature[13] and informs you that he's pretty into the topic as well.[3] Similarly, he hears about Rigur finding about your capabilities[14] after the minotaur asked him why the bear hadn't already taken care of you. Bjorn chastises you for not telling him you had taken one of Azlos' potions and contemplates getting a different one to increase his own liquid production.[15] He seems to get more into the idea the next time you talk to him on break after an additional drinking session and says that he's going to try harder to make things happen. His mother did always want grandchildren, after all.[5] He even becomes more loving and protective after having some private time and hopes the other guys stay away from you.[16]
Bjorn can be run into while doing some work for Rutherfurd and get a bit handsy before being interrupted[17], which he comments on regretfully later.[18]
Rumors
Bjorn will talk to you about rumors involving other people in town, particularly your own (often indecent) escapades with them, which he has heard about through the grapevine. These will usually require at least meeting said characters, though sometimes will require more extended interactions with them before any commentary from the bear will be unlocked.
He opens up his rumors by speaking about the mysterious hooded figure that was seen coming into town the same night you did, presumably the same unknown person renting a room in the tavern and known by Garius and the person who you encounter while doing your guard job at Azlos' shop.[19] He also brings up the rumors that have started about you and your attractiveness.[20] There have additionally been rumors flying about the forest you came in through and the monsters inside of it, with Bjorn assuming you know all about that and the mercenaries guarding the area, despite having seen nothing of the sort when you arrived through the fog.[21]
Once you begin working for Garius, Bjorn will bring up your waitressing and your revealing uniform.[22] Then after you've unlocked sexual play scenes with Garius, the bear will jokingly rib you about it.[23] The same will occur after playing with Reynard and Bjorn will comment that he has only ever been allowed to touch the fox and nothing more, as he doesn't appear to be the type Reynard likes.[24]
Intimate interaction with Bjorn himself will have him comment that while some residents have wanted him to keep his hands off of you, many more have wanted him to corrupt you completely so that you will be more open to interactions with them as well.[25] He also muses about the small "pet" that Azlos has acquired after you begin doing work for the wolf.[26] While aware of your intimate activities with mayor Sep, as he seems to be any time you get friendly with someone in the town, Bjorn is unaware of the exact nature of what you've been doing with the big cat and also thinks you're doing it just to get more favor for something such as buying a home.[27]
A bit surprised that you've been working out at the Gym, since Vic closed it after the mercenaries arrived, Bjorn gives you an oblique warning about getting too close to the bird, referencing something that happened with the mercenaries and Vic, and also suggests you work on your behind assets.[28] After helping Shlar with the logging, Bjorn praises you for helping speed up the eventual creation of the brothel.[29] Brief commentary on Vince after helping him[30] and Ran after you become an honorary guard[31], he also comments that he looks forward to hearing about all the places you and Garius have done the dirty once you start doing thing below the counter with him.[32]
After meeting Dirk and the centaurs, Bjorn warns you to stick close to the man and away from the stallions, telling you the story of how the previous male worker there died after getting too close. He suggests that smelling female might help protect you, though that may also end up with the beasts killing you in a whole other way.[33] While he isn't going to risk getting too near the centaurs himself, he notes after you've met Bruax that he'll be happy to help you out after you're been exposed for a long time to the creatures' pheromones.[34]
Once you've gotten to know Bjorn further at his construction job at the East Gate, he notes that the rumors of your activities with many men are getting stronger, with people getting jealous of the time you've been spending with him. He thinks all of this will only help you out once the brothel is built and you start working there, according to him.[35] Bjorn is further surprised by you convincing Ran to let you go on patrol with other guards after you've beaten Iron in a fight, pointing out that he doesn't necessarily hate the captain, but that Ran has thrown him in jail several times before for public intoxication and likely sexual commentary made toward the captain.[36] Unsurprisingly, Bjorn has already managed to have some flavorful personal interactions with Burchill from the moment the new waiter arrived.[37] After the player being approved for patrolling and having been nursed by Oscar, Bjorn will bring up the two new people in town, orc guard Boruk and rescued traveler Konta, though also unhelpfully go on and on about how he isn't quite capable of taking all of Varok's appendages and that the whole collar thing chaffs on his neck.[38]
