There are quite a few missing items in the ID list right after this — secrets?

So, all of the messages seem to be based on your status. Should I put my thoughts for what they are on the talk page or the main page?
Eventually they resolve into a scene of you challenging a serpent, rising from dark waters. A mountain crumbles in the background, continually drawing your eye.
Fight a lake serpent? Do the Dr. Myers quest, and get the sample?
Eventually they resolve into a scene of you, lying in your bed in Southside, exactly like you normally sleep. Your alarm clock sits dormant with your comm next to it, the 'new message' light illuminated with loving detail.
Start the game? Should always be possible to get?
Eventually they resolve into a scene of you, broken and bleeding, lying on some pavement. It looks rather familiar, but you're not sure why anyone would give it to you.
Get beaten up? Maybe always gettable?
Eventually they resolve into a scene of you standing among a pack of loping, sketchy creatures. You hold a book aloft and lines extend from it to the thing surrounding you like leashes.
Bind a twisted hound, and get release the hounds?
Eventually they resolve into a scene of you running from a widening pit in the ground. Twisted almost-human creatures fall into the pit behind you, unable to keep up.
Kill/bind/make a deal with the ghoul king?
Eventually they resolve into a scene of you burning a pile of canvases and the artist on top of them. The sketch pulls at you, somehow, and you can almost smell the smoke.
Shoot the artist in the charnel house in the head.
> Eventually they resolve into a scene a young girl with long dark hair, walking unsteadily across a room and laughing. You stand in the background watching with the hint of a smile on your face.
Find out about patient #whatever from boris/slags lab computer?
Eventually they resolve into a scene of you dressed in pirate regalia, single-handedly holding off five sailors. It's a pretty lighthearted piece, actually, and would be rather cheerful if you didn't recognize the sailors.
Complete the pirate ship quest, doesn't seem to matter how.
Eventually they resolve into a scene of… you… or a version of you, at least. You're hunched over and chained, harvesting blocks of spongy material from a gigantic mushroom. It would just be humorous if it weren't for the dreamy, stupid smile on your face.
Help the mushroom guy fight the fangs? Get Fae Eyes? Harvest mushrooms?
Eventually they resolve into a scene of a young, cleanshaven man pouring over mechanical diagrams. His head jerks to the side and a creature like a hound with black pits for eyes and bone spikes ripped from its skin, burrows its way out of his forehead and into the drawing.
He places one hand on his head and goes back to drawing.
No idea. Get access to abstract sketches(Is this about the artist student? Or someone else?)
Eventually they resolve into a scene of you wrapping up a package in paper, scribbling something on it, and leaving the package near a cliff.
Recover an old coin from zach
Eventually they resolve into a scene of a spider hunched among crates, feeding on a webful of human heads, one of which is yours.
Fight a spider(not necessarily at the warehouse?)
Eventually they resolve into a scene of a man prone in a pool of black oil, struggling to try and stand up. The oil pulls him in. He screams, but it is soon muffled by the oil into his mouth and forcing its way up his nose.
Do/don't complete boris's harvest quest? Kill boris?
Eventually they resolve into a scene of… you, shaking your fist at the night sky and shouting. It reminds you uncomfortably of the bums in Southside.
Don't give the bums in southside eclipse?
I'm assuming that the quest flags reset with beta resets, so a lot of the above would be confirmable if I reset and did as few quests as possible, and then slowly did more while alternating with reading abstract sketches.

Could be tested by sending some sketches to someone who's never gotten one.
Other possible ideas: something about the Hammer, or other possible endings for the lost son quest, or Vigilante quest?
Yeah, it's hard to test, because you can only get the one sketch per day, and then pretty much only after reset after a sinking enough turns to finish the quest.
I do wish I kept better notes about the stuff I only had vague ideas about.
Eventually they resolve into a scene a young girl with long dark hair, walking unsteadily across a room and laughing. You stand in the background watching with the hint of a smile on your face.
I don't know (didn't use the sketches yet), but I would expect this to refer to Larry's daughter …
Eventually they resolve into a scene of you… or a strange representation of you. Your hair's gone and your eyes are wide, staring right back out of the page. A careful crosshatch of scales completes the sketch.
Metroplex is Innsmouth! Dagon cometh, IA, IA!
I just got this one:
Eventually they resolve into a scene of a young, cleanshaven man pouring over mechanical diagrams. His head jerks to the side and a creature, like a hound with black pits for eyes and bone spikes ripped from its skin, burrows its way out of his forehead and into the drawing.
Right after I learned how to find memories from the top shelf of the Neglected Bookshelf. Could be coincidence though.
