Pointers

Each dialogue entry in the game doesn't have a pointer, rather, the pointers for each entry are generated while the game runs through some calculations. As a result, we have two pointers for the dialogue which is split up into two banks.

Lo Hi Bank Assembled pointer Size
Bank 1 0x753F5 0x753F6 0x753EF 0xE0000 $8000
Bank 2 0x75437 0x75438 0x7543C 0x75F40 $14C0

The "assembled pointer" is the address where the dialogue is located at. The size of the monologues isn't actually a stored value.

Widths

The widths for each character are located at 0x74ADF to 0x74B41 (62)
