Some other things like this: talk to a random commoner in Easthaven with either a Gnome or Halfling, and you can get a knucklehead trout if you choose the right dialog option. A Dwarf can get a gem too, by saying that he's going to set up an expedition to investigate Dorn's Deep and needs funds.
And if you talk with a Bard with high enough CHA to the drunken fisherman, you can actually get him off the booze. This doesn't reward more XP than giving him a bottle of wine, but it's the 'right' thing to do for a good-aligned party.
