Am I at a dead end? <img border="0" alt="" title="" src="graemlins/cry.gif" /> I am in someone's house in the merchant area and he locked me in? <img border="0" alt="" title="" src="graemlins/cry.gif" /> How do I get out so I can kill some more bad guys? Waaaaiiiil. I am so pathetic. This game has reduced me to sitting waaay too long in front of the 'puter. Theres no computer in this guy's house. I want out!!

Did you rescue Gremor, the lizard healer? Assuming you're at the part where he's been changed into a snake. Change him back and then see what happens.

Row what building are you in? I'm in the merchants village right now getting some more potions and weapons repaired. If you tell me where you are I'll bash the door down and get you out

Are you sure you're locked in? Press the alt key for other doors.

I haven't come across the lizard in the market place yet, Acornia. The only lizard I know was in Aleroth and he is gone.

Anyway I am out of that house. It was the house just north of the doctor's house. There were no other doors and the lockpicks didn't work. So I escaped another way and got even at the same time. I looted the house and overloaded my inventory with all the stuff I might find useful in future. Then I put my teleporter in my inventory in order to keep it and teleported myself outta there! I was back in Aleroth where I sorted my inventory, changed my armour to better stuff, then used the local teleporter to bring me back to the closest place where I left off. I just walked back and am now ready to continue my quests.

Last night I dreamed up that escape while in bed. Just couldn't sleep until I got that figured out. My BAAGS syndrome now has a RPG pocket.

That is really strange, Rowan - I haven't heard of anybody ever being locked in! But you know, this game sort of has a life of its own, and different things happen to different people. Good for you for figuring out how to beat it!

Wrong house. This one is in Verditis and you'll be there later. You'll find the healers in the blue boar inn.

Way to go Row <g> I was ready and able with my trusty metorite spell to zap you out of there just in case

It was Tingalf that locked me up. He was going to show me some stolen goods in a house. While I was browsing he left me and locked the door on me. Later I told a soldier about him and that opened up another quest: to find Tingalf's suppliers.

Now I am wondering how to complete another quest. I have freed the boy's parents who were hostages when thieves took over their home. However, the quest doesn't show as finished in my quest list. What haven't I done? It's probably some little thing, but I can't find the boy or the parents. Everyone took off.

I'm at level 14. My reputation is still at 4 and I would love to raise it a few notches. I got the best skill yet: polymorphing. Now I can go look up some of the really big baddies to kill them.

Syd, how are you doing? I see you popped out of the game to post a contest.

Hi Row -

Don't have the two quests you're talking about - yet <g> I just finished freeing the little boy from the Dark Cave (but can't get in to get the vampire bat) and the one the merchant asked me to do (find his supply wagon).

I'm at level 15 and can finally make my own potions - which I need being the spell caster that I am

Row, I had the Tingalf quest, but I never was invited into the house, interesting - maybe just survivors. You might find the parents and the boy at the archer's guild.Maybe talking to them will complete the quest (hopefully).

Nickie, maybe it was the conversation choices I had with Tingalf that made him act so sneaky. It's fun that there are so many variations. <img border="0" alt="" title="" src="graemlins/woozy.gif" />

I got Tingalf's quest by talking to a guard but haven't seen a couple nor a child (other than the little boy I rescued from the cave). Tingalf did invite me to look at his wares but I was talking to the weapons guy at the time and followed him first. Never did follow Tingalf.

Didn't follow him either and don't remember being asked--just bought stuff off of him. Did ask him about supplies after got the quest. Will need to talk to the boy at the archer's guild for that quest's points.

I have a bunch of trail bombs and scorpion traps in my inventory. How do you use them and when woud you use them?

Also, I don't understand the value of all the little coloured vials I've got. I know the blue one recharges your mana, red for strength, yellow for stamina, and I've used the invibility one. But I have no idea what elixir and some of the others are for.
