    How do I get into Tulla????, I discovered it during my random wanderings, but the wizard at the entrance says I'm not welcome there or something along those lines (I'm a Level 50 Full Techie).

    Sooooo how can i get in??? I havent been able to find a back entrance either.....

    You get there in the course of the main plot, at a point you most likely have not yet reached.

    Patience, Grasshopper.

    hmmm Parmanian, actually even though i was a full techie dwarf those mages seemed pretty friendly for me. i think they care more if your good or evil then tech and magic. They kept welcoming me as a "noble soul" or something like that. Pretty nice guys.

    speaking of alignments, i've got virgil at -65 evil because i've had him wearing a cursed helm that gradually wears down your alignment while giving you some pretty good boosts.

    either way i have an evil virgile....
    how awesome is that?

    answer... not very

    Evil Virgil

    That is pretty cool, where did you find this helm?

    I would like to slap one on Mr. Virgil Goodie-Goodie-Two-Shoes..... I am sick of him complaining when I some times get into situations where I have to kill inocents.......... Is he still a Whiny bastard, or does it fix this problem???

    As I know it there are only 2 situations that may prevent you from entering Tulla:

    I. If you 'forced' Tulla (eg. found its location on random wandering) you won't be allowed entrance by the Elf Guard, even if you were 100MA or 100 Alignment - you could, of course, force entrance by killing the guard but this turns all of Tulla's inhabitants against you. This is because, as is later explained, the city of magic takes no visitors whatsoever and ALL of its inhabitants were recruited at young ages and pure heart (explains their sometimes oversickening politeness) - even you'd only eventually be allowed entrance because Tulla's diviner later informs the Guard that you are expected.

    II. If you are following the evil path (therefore having negative alignment) you are not allowed entrance, Tulla isn't essential whatsoever in proceeding through the plot for the evil path follower anyway.

    i bought the helm from a wisewoman i think

    i gave pretty good bonuses, now i've got him using a shield that adds ac based on a modifier of the value of your evil alignment/3 +10 so it adds 42.5 (42 i guess) ac, how sweet is that?

    as for whether or not i fixed him, persay, i've basically been good for the entire begining, my own alignment is +35 good, so yeah. but no he doesnt whine, ever...

    I've always kept the evil stuff for some reason (maybe need later in game) But if the junk dealer keeps it all then I can use him as a holding point instead!
