Summary0008867: People refer to their deity as [SPEAKER:HF_LINK:DEITY:RANDOM_DEF_SPHERE]
DescriptionWhen I am a legendary hero, people will occasionally be dumbstruck when talking to me and refer to themselves as [TRANS_NAME]. They may also refer to their deity as [SPEAKER:HF_LINK:DEITY:RANDOM_DEF_SPHERE].

I've most often had this happen when reuniting lost children with their parents, since this makes you very legendary. It only happens if the "dumbstruck" line appears, if they just call you a legend then they refer to themselves properly.

I've also encountered Peasants in a wandering army that all referred to themselves as [TRANS_NAME], but I haven't been able to reproduce this.

Screenshots included.
Steps To ReproduceFind some lost children in a fortress, and reunite them with their family. Occasionally their family members will then be "dumbstruck" when you greet them, and refer to themselves as [TRANS_NAME].

While most likely the same root cause, I'm leaving it open because of the deity differentiation. Continue discussions of each topic in the appropriate report.
