    I think I know one:

    13: Huntington Dale, where Ristezze "threw lilies at the wolf hunts"

    Edit: Accidentally put "wolf" instead of "hunt".

    Kua Hua (sp?)

    Kua Hua (sp?) is RESPONSIBLE for the current Panarii practices and purpose, Mannox mentioned a council or something in his journal that was responsible for the Panarii's role as gate keepers before it was overtaken by Kua Hua(sp?)

    Excessively Long Bridge

    That 3 questions game the halflings in Blackroot play... unless your character is a moron like mine... stinking IQ profilers.

    A: I don't know. Weeks ago I found a thread discussing it, but believe that's the name of volcanoes. I've kept an eye out ever since. I did find names that could be rivers in the game, but it didn't say where they were.
    Yes, it was an unfortunate affair. :)

    Time for an update:
    10,11,13 Correct. 14 & 16 are misspelled but correct.

    UNSOLVED TRIVIA:

    4-During the Age of Legends, what was Kree known for (before being sacked by Bane)?

    6-During the Age of Legends, Zalakar the Bold created what? A:
    Those snake men in the Boil, called...?
    7-The train that derailed came from what town (what line)? HINT:
    There's more than two lines. Someone was forced to take the line towards Stillwater, and went the rest of the way travelling coach.
    8-Jyheirad was hired by whom? That person lived where? A:
    Baron............from Flame Keep.
    12-What's the name of the River that runs through Tarant?

    15-Who founded the Panarii?

    17-What is the game of Wit? Incorrect.
    The halflings are playing "An Ancient Game."
    18-In the war with Black Root, Cumbrian warships used a magickal weapon called what?

    I replayed and found I wrote the answer to 13 wrong, corrected it. Also, could th answer to 15 be
    Mannox
    ?
    And I tink 17 is
    The game you and Myrth play
    .

    I think it isn't, but my other guess is even more stupid so... Yeah.

    Sorry, wrong on both counts. But thanks for correcting #13. I couldn't find where I'd written down the answer, but knew it was
    something-Dale.

    7: As for the railroads, I believe the Ashbury-Tarant-Blackroot line is called the Brackenton line, and I seem to remember Smythe and Willoughsby coming from Ashbury - though I may be wrong.

    8: Jyheirad's employer is Baron Sugg

    12: Tarant's river is called Hadrian.

    17: The game of Wit is the game people in bars sometimes initiate, when you have to answer a trivia question, and if you get it right, you win 500 coins.

    (edit:
    18: Found this as well. It was a magical oil named Cumbrian Fire. (see the geography section of the old Sierra site mirrored here)

    7. Correct. Incidentally, it's one of two lines or towns mentioned that you can't take.
    8. Correct.
    12. Correct.
    17. Correct.
    Supposedly, the first 100 people to answer all 50 questions correctly could send for a free T-Shirt. Probably done the first week the game came out. You should get an in-game prize: quest complete, experience, etc. but I don't think so.
    18. Correct. Note: I've limited myself to answers you find in the game (and maybe the manual).

    1,5 more answer attemptss.

    6. Zalakar created the Black Legion (Milo and Maug tell about it IG)

    15. As per Alexander "The elves founded the religion, humans were allowed to join later." So a general answer would be "the elves". If we go into nitpicking however, what the elves founded was not yet the Panarii, but the Pan-R'var (or something along that line), with the very distinct purpose of tending the wards on the Ring. So the Panarii of 1885 were the brainchild of he dark elves, and Kan H'ua in particular, as per Mannox's diary. Dunno if this was what you were looking for, though.

    I may have found one more.

    4. Kree was famous, because no enemy had ever breached its walls before the Bane came. At least that is what he claims when chatting with the player in the Void.

    15. No, that's not who I was looking for. There's a specific guy - not Mannox, not Kan Hoo-ha
    4 is correct
    It was known for its great city wall. Torian Kel also said it was the best/biggest/most beautiful city in Arcanum (he must not have known of Vendigroth.)

    15. Perhaps a more precise answer would be "Members of the former Elven Council"? Although I'm not sure of that and that seems too simple for a hard question.

    Ugh, I can't believe I'm so stupid.
    15: R'ynn D'Urken (or was it K'rynn Urden?), the last livin' guy of the council!

    EDIT: Anyone know which questions still need answering?
