Help with cursed Virgil!

Came across the 'broken cathedral'. Killed the monsters inside and then left. Well, now Virgil has some weird curse where his fatigue points lower at an enormous rate (he will get a pentagram icon under him accompanied by a "bong" sound)Once his fatigue runs out he passes out for a few minutes until he gains a little fatigue back. Then he looses it and the whole process repeats. I don't get it. He has no cursed items and there is no way to find out if an NPC is cursed. So what gives? And how do I get rid of it?

 

did you use that invisble ring? I had something similiar happen when I did, i coudlnt' get it of fhim either, cuz he kept healing himself, and I couldn't access his damned inventory ...

 

check his boots. Had this happen to me and he was wearing some cursed boots he picked up there.

 

Wait til he passes out, then kill him and remove all his items. Then resurrect him. I have no idea whether this will work or not, but as it stands, you can't use him as a follower anyway. It's worth a try, just save your game first.

Once, Virgil had that cursed ring on - I made the mistake of giving it to him and the stupid git put it on. I just waited till he died, then resurrected him and got the ring off him quickly. It worked and now, he likes me much more than he did before. :smile:

 

If you're very quick you can talk to him before he passes out again. Although, it really sucks. If someone is passed out on the floor, why can't you pull off their boots?

 

Use Potions?

Can't you just feed him a potion to get him up? Or does he go back down instantly?
