|| INTRODUCTION AND QUESTING TIPS ||
++--------------------------------++

Important Note: Related or alternate quests will be noted. Related also
includes sub quests. All quest rewards will be detailed. Shifts in alignment
outside of quest completions will not be noted. Side quests will be marked.
Quests are also in no particular order, as they can be completed in almost any
order. Side quests may need to be completed before you finish the main quest
in the area.

Kyrexus: Well, I've gone through the entire game at least twice now, with a few
incomplete attempts. (Mostly due to a HDD crash...) My last completed character
was a sorcerer, having hit level 20. I have started a druid, and will be
writing this FAQ with Cheeta's help as I go. Also, once the spell section gets
to about level 3, I will likely decide to move it to a different FAQ.

Questing Tips: If you want more gold, you may attempt to persuade people.
However, it may affect your alignment. If you talked to anyone about a quest,
even though they may not have affected your journal, remember to talk to them
again anyway. For instance, if you talk to the girl that informs you about the
prison break after you have turned in the brain of the Intellect Devourer, your
alignment shifts 3 points towards good. (Of course, Evil characters may not
prefer this.)

++-Section IV-++
|| PRELUDE ||
++-------------++

The prelude is really fairly self-explanatory. After the ceremony and brief
fight, get out alive. No matter how much you try though, you will not be able
to get a level up from fighting the goblins and skeletons scattered throughout
the academy. It is recommended that, unless you need the practice, you go on
and speak with the man who tells you to level up. Then go straight to the
stables and speak with Fenthick to get your third level. Only bother with
clearing out the rooms if you could use the items. Some chests contain
extremely helpful, or at least demi-valuable things you can use or sell.

++-Section V-++
|| Chapter 1 ||
++-----------++

----------+A. City Core+----------
XP Tip!: For the adventuresome sort, you can go to the Moonstone Mask to frolic
in the back room. After you get authorization from Ophalia, you can buy pass
coins from Torgo. Go upstairs and speak with Tamora and/or Luce if you're male,
and Tanith if you're female. Doing so gets you 50 XP. If you speak with Tamora,
you can get a mini-mini quest that has no Quest Title. After completing it,
talk to Tamora again for another 50 XP and a 3 point towards good shift in
alignment.

Quest: The Wailing and the Waterdhavians
Who/Where: Aribeth, upon entering the City Halls for the first time.
XP: 600
Gold: 2000
Other: None
What: Aribeth informs you that you need to recover the 4 components needed to
create the cure for the Wailing Death. Turn in the Intellect Devourer Brain,
the Yuan-Ti heart, the Lock of Dryad Hair, and the Cockatrice Feather for 150
XP and 500 GP each. Once you are done, Aribeth will give you the option to go
on to make the cure. Do so to go to the Chapter 1 End!
Related/Alternate Quests: Peninsula: Prison Break, Beggar's Nest: Undead
Infestation, Blacklake: Tensions Rising and Docks: Trouble in the District

Quest: Peninsula: Prison Break
Who/Where: Woman who confronts you outside of the Halls of Justice.
XP: 200
Gold: 800
Other: None
What: The woman who talks to you in the City Core informs you about the prison
break in the Peninsula. You need to head there, and speak with Sedos Sebile, or
go to the Tanglebrook Estate. Go through the Prison, dealing with the Sorcerers
with as much care as possible. Kill the Head Gaeoler Alaefin, but make sure you
get all the Former Guards out first, otherwise the Intellect Devourer will hop
into one of them and escape. Picking up the brain will give you 200 XP. Turn in
the brain to Aribeth. While the quest will be complete, return to Sedos Sebile
for another 300 gold.
Related/Alternate Quests: The Wailing and the Waterdhavians

Quest: The Great Tree: Animal Rescue (Side Quest)
(Not Druid and Ranger only! Thanks to Ankur Patel.)
Who/Where: Nyatar, City Core.
XP: 276
Gold: 400
Other: None
What: Nyatar can give you the quest to rescue the animals from the Blacklake
Zoo. If you accept, you recieve the key and the TransportnVia Plants Scroll. Go
to the Zoo in Blacklake, and use the key to get into the back. Fight the guards
off, and make your way to the back area. Use the Transport Via Plants scroll on
it, and go about talking to each of the animals in the cages. Each animal will
give you 19 XP. Go outside and tell them to enter the portal. Talk to Nyatar
when you get a chance. He will give you 400 GP, and you will get another 200
XP.
Related/Alternate Quests: None

Quest: Cloak Tower: Membership (Side Quest) (BARD, WIZARD AND SORCERER ONLY!!)
Who/Where: Eltoora Sarptyl, Cloak Tower, City Core.
