    UPDATE

    OK,
    When I first started here after completing the Masters Quest, I was just learning how to read scripts. So, I went back to see what exactly the Masters require in skill for training. It's almost universally 4.5 (in code terms 18/20). Exceptions follow:

    Chambers, Dodge 4.5 (but one dialog option requires 5)
    Stout, Melee........ 4.5 to get quest (but can you get around this?)
    Gurin, Gambler.... 5, $?
    Fawn, Healing.......4.5, al 400 (>+40)
    Persuasion...........5

    Oddly, you can't use haggle skill to get the haggle master to train you for less than $10,000. "Well do you need exactly10K, what about 9,950?" Since the picklocks master didn't require a training level I thought you could just show up with the tools, but after that failed, I found his mother has to let him know you're coming.

    I have found very few names for female gnomes (charlatan's apprentice) in case you want to do the Virgil sex change I made up. http://terra-arcanum.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=14119

    Madeline Alright: Magick Helm AC10(+6)DR12(+4)
    Maria Schwartzkoff: sm charmed chain AC 12(+5)DR10(+5), Magick Plate AC15(+6),DR36(+6).
    Melinda Bates: sm Charmed Plate AC15(+4), sword, dagger
    Harriet Morris: sm Magick Plate AC15(+6)DR...(+6) all(+6)

    Still looking for sm mystic plate.

    [EDIT:] Beat a dwarf with an ugly stick:
    Yule Flintlock: charmed grey gloves AC(+2)DR5(+2) & 246 coin! (max coin?)
    Lee Dredgewater: reg Magick Plate
    Sam Livingstone: the motherlode => 5 magic items and 220 coin!
    ...Charmed Staff (20 mana), lg charmed leather, green gloves AC(+3)DR+5(+3) , sm white robe, charmed shield.

    Why are there so many good-looking new portraits when people insist on playing the butt-ugly background?? [/EDIT]
