    Hi folks!

    Can anyone give me a hint how to get into that room containing the sewers map with a mage (I've got only unlocking cantrip available - I'm not skilled in picklocking) without alerting the guards?

    Greetings and thanx, X

    Unlocking Cantrip makes too much noise so its no use.

    Easy :)

    i just did it with a 80% good negotiator (mage based) just wait until nightfall (advance till evening) then advance 2 hours more, the guy will walk into his bedroom, and go to sleep (follow him into his room. With 0 pickpocket skill i still got a first try success on the key.. he's asleep... no lights... not a problem, just wear robes or something (so no noise penaties) and try it.. save it first i guess.. but you shouldn't have a problem. GOod luck

    Old Sewers...

    If you are investigating the murders for the police, he'll send word for them to let you in once you are asked to kill the demon that committed the murders.

    How do I get the "murders" quest from the police? Ahem...by the way "where" is the police?

    if you get stuck, you can always use fate points to lockpick

    Location for Police...

    If you go up from the park, you'll soon see a guard standing next to a door, and he'll be asleep. Directly below that door is the door for the Police station. Talk to the chief and he'll tell you about the murders, if you offer to help he'll send you out to investigate the locations where there have been murders. Hope this helps.

    Beelzebubba, he's talking about the first thieves guild quest in Tarant. Caladon is a long way off, so go easy on the spoils :smile:

    You should be able to pickpocket the key from the guard even with 0 skill, that's the way I did it first time around...

    Sewers...

    Ahh... I didn't see any mention of where he was at in the game, and that section was fresher in my mind. Wasn't aware he was at the beginning of the game. Sorry.

    I'always at various stages of the game because I start over very often (perhaps I like the beginning of the game so much...nope, I'm usually incontent with the progress of my char - a phenomenon I imported from Fallout!).
    But thanx for the variety of hints, X
