C. Intro
-------------------------------
Well, I try to list all the quest I've got in here. I hope this one will do help covering most of the games quests. I have finished the games now as a thief.

Any suggestion and comments are welcomed, just make sure to put
"Arcanum FAQ : suggestion/comments/etc" in the topic.

Whenever you want to drop me any mail, make sure that the question is not already answered in this faq or if suggestion, make sure it isn't already written in the last faq.

I don't put the reward from the quest, because I've realized that the reward are different from player to player, depending on how you play your games.

This quest written according to the Quest Log from Log Book from the character with intelligence of 8. I don't know with higher intelligence, but lower intelligence (1-4 approximately) will be different, and unable to do certain quests.

And finally, the sollution I given and the order in the FAQ is not exactly the exact way to finish the games. So, stop giving me sollution that basically is the same with mine. If you make it with a greatly different way to finish this, then you are free to write me an e-mail.

D. Quest
-------------------------------

=========================
I. Primary Quest
=========================
Notes : At this one, I will now enlist differently between the quest when you are acting as a good or evil. The good one will be started with a sign "+" and an evil one will be started with a sign "-". For example : +8, this means the quest if you are good, and -8 means the quest if you are evil. I will fix this once I know exactly all the quests for the evil one since I'm doing this right now.
