    hey folks, does the guy guarding the chest, that has the venom you have to steal, play into the story line?

    On strealing the venom, I had my party back-off and wait for me down the road. This little dwarf chased me all around town until I ran in the sewer.

    I came out and rounded up my party and continued the quest. Later on while walking on that side of town he found me and then we all had to run away into the sewer.

    I have heard that you have to talk with him later in the game. Is he gonna forget about the stolen serum or attack me again? Maybe This is one quest that should be left for the prowlers out there.

    He has a tiny part to play in the Stillwater Giant pelt quest, but he's not necessary and you can skip him entirely if you wish.

    My non-prowlers sometimes like to give him the Baneful Gauntlets before stealing the venom. Sometimes they are kind enough to resurrect him afterwards too. :)

    yeah but don't you loose a rep point for killing him? or does the game figure it out that in a round about way you killed him?

    And when you resurrect him, I guess he doesn't remember what you did to him?

    PS I guess this trick can work on other NPCS!

    Death by Baneful Gauntlets doesn't count as a kill by you and nobody will go hostile. Just drop them near your victim, and if they pick them up and equip them, that's their choice!

    Isn't it beautiful? :D

    I had heard that after they pick up the gauntlets just start conversation and they don't heal themselves

    I never knew that virgil could resurrect you...I never died yet hehehe.

    He has to have a scroll in inventory right? because I don't think he ever gets the spell or does he?

    Yes, he needs a scroll, he never learns Resurect.

    You & your party members only. Sometimes only you.
